Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail. This woman was intelligent and had a beautiful face; but the man was surly and evil in his doings. He was of the house of Caleb.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, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.Tell him,‘ Long life to you! Peace be to you! Peace be to your house! Peace be to all that you have!Now I have heard that you have shearers. Your shepherds have now been with us, and we didn’t harm them. Nothing was missing from them all the time they were in Carmel.Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favor in your eyes; for we come on a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand, to your servants, and to your son David.’”

Then you shall return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him who serves God and him who doesn’t serve him.

in whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear Yahweh; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn’t change;

Don’t eat the food of him who has a stingy eye, and don’t crave his delicacies:for as he thinks about the cost, so he is.“ Eat and drink!” he says to you, but his heart is not with you.The morsel which you have eaten you shall vomit up, and lose your good words.

Please don’t let my lord pay attention to this worthless fellow, Nabal; for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your servant, didn’t see my lord’s young men, whom you sent.
