Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

The name of the man was Nabal, and the name of his wife Abigail. And she was a woman of good understanding and beautiful appearance; but the man was harsh and evil in his doings. He was of the house of Caleb.When David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,David sent ten young men; and David said to the young men,“ Go up to Carmel, go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.And thus you shall say to him who lives in prosperity:‘ Peace be to you, peace to your house, and peace to all that you have!Now I have heard that you have shearers. Your shepherds were with us, and we did not hurt them, nor was there anything missing from them all the while they were in Carmel.Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we come on a feast day. Please give whatever comes to your hand to your servants and to your son David.’”

Then you shall again discern Between the righteous and the wicked, Between one who serves God And one who does not serve Him.

In whose eyes a vile person is despised, But he honors those who fear the Lord; He who swears to his own hurt and does not change;

Do not eat the bread of a miser, Nor desire his delicacies;For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.“ Eat and drink!” he says to you, But his heart is not with you.The morsel you have eaten, you will vomit up, And waste your pleasant words.

Please, let not my Lord regard this scoundrel Nabal. For as his name is, so is he: Nabal is his name, and folly is with him! But I, your maidservant, did not see the young men of my Lord whom you sent.
