1 Samuel 25:39-41

Easy-to-Read Version

³⁹ When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Praise the Lord! He judged Nabal to be wrong for insulting me and kept me from doing something wrong. The Lord made Nabal pay for what he did.”

Then David sent a message to Abigail and asked her to be his wife. ⁴⁰ His servants went to Carmel with this message, “David sent us to get you. He wants you to be his wife.”

⁴¹ Abigail bowed her face to the ground. She said, “I am willing to be your slave woman, even if it is only to wash the feet of my master’s servants.”
