a servant who becomes king, a godless fool who gets plenty to eat,

The first is a servant who becomes a king. The second is a foolish and ungodly person who gets plenty to eat.

a slave when he becomes king, and a fool when he is filled with food;

a slave who becomes a king, an overbearing fool who prospers,

a servant when he becomes king, a fool when he is stuffed with food,

Under a slave when he becomes king, And a fool when he is satisfied with food,

For a servant when he reigns, A fool when he is filled with food,

For a servant when he is king; And a fool when he is filled with food;

For a servant when he reigneth; and a fool when he is filled with meat;

under a servant who becomes king, under a fool who is stuffed with food,

For a servant when he is king, a fool when he is filled with food,

Luxury is not appropriate for a fool— how much less for a slave to rule over princes!

I have seen slaves on horses, but princes walking on the ground like slaves.

“ I will make youths their leaders, and the unstable will govern them.”The people will oppress one another, man against man, neighbor against neighbor; the youth will act arrogantly toward the elder, and the worthless toward the honorable.

The man’s name was Nabal, and his wife’s name, Abigail. The woman was intelligent and beautiful, but the man, a Calebite, was harsh and evil in his dealings.

Nabal asked them,“ Who is David? Who is Jesse’s son? Many slaves these days are running away from their masters.Am I supposed to take my bread, my water, and my meat that I butchered for my shearers and give them to these men? I don’t know where they are from.”

My lord should pay no attention to this worthless man Nabal, for he lives up to his name: His name is Nabal, and stupidity is all he knows. I, your servant, didn’t see my lord’s young men whom you sent.

So he led him, and there were the Amalekites, spread out over the entire area, eating, drinking, and celebrating because of the great amount of plunder they had taken from the land of the Philistines and the land of Judah.

A destitute leader who oppresses the poor is like a driving rain that leaves no food.

Then Abigail went to Nabal, and there he was in his house, holding a feast fit for a king. Nabal was in a good mood and very drunk, so she didn’t say anything to him until morning light.In the morning when Nabal sobered up, his wife told him about these events. Then he had a seizure and became paralyzed.About 10 days later, the Lord struck Nabal dead.
