May you be blessed for your good judgment and for keeping me from bloodshed this day and from avenging myself with my own hands.

May the Lord bless you for what you have done. You have shown a lot of good sense. You have kept me from killing Nabal and his men this day. You have kept me from using my own hands to get even.

Blessed be your discretion, and blessed be you, who have kept me this day from bloodguilt and from working salvation with my own hand!

Thank God for your good sense! Bless you for keeping me from murder and from carrying out vengeance with my own hands.

May your discernment be blessed, and may you be blessed. Today you kept me from participating in bloodshed and avenging myself by my own hand.

and blessed be your discernment, and blessed be you, who have kept me this day from bloodshed and from avenging myself by my own hand.

And blessed is your advice and blessed are you, because you have kept me this day from coming to bloodshed and from avenging myself with my own hand.

And blessed[ be] thy advice, and blessed[ be] thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to[ shed] blood, and from avenging myself with mine own hand.

Now my lord, as surely as the Lord lives and as you yourself live, it is the Lord who kept you from participating in bloodshed and avenging yourself by your own hand. May your enemies and those who want trouble for my lord be like Nabal.

One who rebukes a person will later find more favor than one who flatters with his tongue.

A wise correction to a receptive ear is like a gold ring or an ornament of gold.

A rebuke cuts into a perceptive person more than a hundred lashes into a fool.

Instruct a wise man, and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man, and he will learn more.

A crucible for silver, and a smelter for gold, and a man for the words of his praise.

Let the righteous one strike me— it is an act of faithful love; let him rebuke me— it is oil for my head; let me not refuse it. Even now my prayer is against the evil acts of the wicked.

When a man finds his enemy, does he let him go unharmed? May the Lord repay you with good for what you’ve done for me today.

there will not be remorse or a troubled conscience for my lord because of needless bloodshed or my lord’s revenge. And when the Lord does good things for my lord, may you remember me your servant.”

But David said to Abishai,“ Don’t destroy him, for who can lift a hand against the Lord’s anointed and be blameless?”David added,“ As the Lord lives, the Lord will certainly strike him down: either his day will come and he will die, or he will go into battle and perish.
