1 Samuel 25:33-35

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³³ And blessed be thou, who hast kept me to day, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.

³⁴ Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.

³⁵ And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.
