1 Samuel 25:16 in context
- 14But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our master; and he railed at them.
- 15But the men were very good unto us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we anything, as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields:
- 16they were a wall unto us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
- 17Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his house: for he is such a worthless fellow, that one cannot speak to him.
- 18Then Abigail made haste, and took two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched grain, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on asses.
