1 And Samuel8050 died;4191 and all3605 the Israelites3478 were gathered together,6908 and lamented5594 him, and buried6912 him in his house1004 at Ramah.7414 And David1732 arose,6965 and went down3381 to413 the wilderness4057 of Paran.6290 2 And there was a man376 in Maon,4584 whose possessions4639 were in Carmel;3760 and the man376 was very3966 great,1419 and he had three7969 thousand505 sheep,6629 and a thousand505 goats:5795 and he was1961 shearing1494 853 his sheep6629 in Carmel.3760 3 Now the name8034 of the man376 was Nabal;5037 and the name8034 of his wife802 Abigail:26 and she was a woman802 of good2896 understanding,7922 and of a beautiful3303 countenance:8389 but the man376 was churlish7186 and evil7451 in his doings;4611 and he1931 was of the house of Caleb.3612 4 And David1732 heard8085 in the wilderness4057 that3588 Nabal5037 did shear1494 853 his sheep.6629 5 And David1732 sent out7971 ten6235 young men,5288 and David1732 said559 unto the young men,5288 Get you up5927 to Carmel,3760 and go935 to413 Nabal,5037 and greet7592 7965 him in my name:8034 6 And thus3541 shall ye say559 to him that liveth2416 in prosperity, Peace7965 be both to thee,859 and peace7965 be to thine house,1004 and peace7965 be unto all3605 that834 thou hast. 7 And now6258 I have heard8085 that3588 thou hast shearers:1494 now6258 thy shepherds7462 which834 were1961 with5973 us, we hurt3637 them not,3808 neither3808 was there aught3972 missing6485 unto them, all3605 the while3117 they were1961 in Carmel.3760 8 Ask7592 853 thy young men,5288 and they will show5046 thee. Wherefore let the young men5288 find4672 favor2580 in thine eyes:5869 for3588 we come935 in5921 a good2896 day:3117 give,5414 I pray thee,4994 853 whatsoever834 cometh4672 to thine hand3027 unto thy servants,5650 and to thy son1121 David.1732 9 And when David's1732 young men5288 came,935 they spoke1696 to413 Nabal5037 according to all3605 those428 words1697 in the name8034 of David,1732 and ceased.5117 10 And Nabal5037 answered6030 853 David's1732 servants,5650 and said,559 Who4310 is David?1732 and who4310 is the son1121 of Jesse?3448 there be many7231 servants5650 now a days3117 that break away6555 every man376 from4480 6440 his master.113 11 Shall I then take3947 853 my bread,3899 and my water,4325 and my flesh2878 that834 I have killed2873 for my shearers,1494 and give5414 it unto men,376 whom834 I know3045 not3808 whence335 4480 2088 they1992 be? 12 So David's1732 young men5288 turned2015 their way,1870 and went again,7725 and came935 and told5046 him all3605 those428 sayings.1697 13 And David1732 said559 unto his men,376 Gird ye on2296 every man376 853 his sword.2719 And they girded on2296 every man376 853 his sword;2719 and David1732 also1571 girded on2296 853 his sword:2719 and there went up5927 after310 David1732 about four702 hundred3967 men;376 and two hundred3967 abode3427 by5921 the stuff.3627 14 But one259 5288 of the young men4480 5288 told5046 Abigail,26 Nabal's5037 wife,802 saying,559 Behold,2009 David1732 sent7971 messengers4397 out of the wilderness4480 4057 to salute1288 853 our master;113 and he railed5860 on them. 15 But the men376 were very3966 good2896 unto us, and we were not3808 hurt,3637 neither3808 missed6485 we any thing,3972 as long as3605 3117 we were conversant1980 with854 them, when we were1961 in the fields:7704 16 They were1961 a wall2346 unto5921 us both1571 by night3915 and1571 day,3119 all3605 the while3117 we were1961 with5973 them keeping7462 the sheep.6629 17 Now6258 therefore know3045 and consider7200 what4100 thou wilt do;6213 for3588 evil7451 is determined3615 against413 our master,113 and against5921 all3605 his household:1004 for he1931 is such a son1121 of Belial,1100 that a man cannot speak4480 1696 to413 him. 18 Then Abigail26 made haste,4116 and took3947 two hundred3967 loaves,3899 and two8147 bottles5035 of wine,3196 and five2568 sheep6629 ready dressed,6213 and five2568 measures5429 of parched7039 corn, and a hundred3967 clusters of raisins,6778 and two hundred3967 cakes of figs,1690 and laid7760 them on5921 asses.2543 19 And she said559 unto her servants,5288 Go on5674 before6440 me; behold,2005 I come935 after310 you. But she told5046 not3808 her husband376 Nabal.5037 20 And it was1961 so, as she1931 rode7392 on5921 the ass,2543 that she came down3381 by the covert5643 of the hill,2022 and, behold,2009 David1732 and his men376 came down3381 against7125 her; and she met6298 them. 21 Now David1732 had said,559 Surely389 in vain8267 have I kept8104 853 all3605 that834 this2088 fellow hath in the wilderness,4057 so that nothing3808 3972 was missed6485 of all4480 3605 that834 pertained unto him: and he hath requited7725 me evil7451 for8478 good.2896 22 So3541 and more3254 also3541 do6213 God430 unto the enemies341 of David,1732 if518 I leave7604 of all4480 3605 that834 pertain to him by5704 the morning light1242 any that pisseth8366 against the wall.7023 23 And when Abigail26 saw7200 853 David,1732 she hasted,4116 and lighted3381 off4480 5921 the ass,2543 and fell5307 before639 David1732 on5921 her face,6440 and bowed herself7812 to the ground,776 24 And fell5307 at5921 his feet,7272 and said,559 Upon me,589 my lord,113 upon me let this iniquity5771 be: and let thine handmaid,519 I pray thee,4994 speak1696 in thine audience,241 and hear8085 853 the words1697 of thine handmaid.519 25 Let not408 my lord,113 I pray thee,4994 regard7760 853 3820 413 this2088 man376 of Belial,1100 even Nabal:5037 for3588 as his name8034 is, so3651 is he;1931 Nabal5037 is his name,8034 and folly5039 is with5973 him: but I589 thine handmaid519 saw7200 not3808 853 the young men5288 of my lord,113 whom834 thou didst send.7971 26 Now6258 therefore, my lord,113 as the LORD3068 liveth,2416 and as thy soul5315 liveth,2416 seeing834 the LORD3068 hath withheld4513 thee from coming4480 935 to shed blood,1818 and from avenging3467 thyself with thine own hand,3027 now6258 let thine enemies,341 and they that seek1245 evil7451 to413 my lord,113 be1961 as Nabal.5037 27 And now6258 this2063 blessing1293 which834 thine handmaid8198 hath brought935 unto my lord,113 let it even be given5414 unto the young men5288 that follow1980 7272 my lord.113 28 I pray thee,4994 forgive5375 the trespass6588 of thine handmaid:519 for3588 the LORD3068 will certainly make6213 6213 my lord113 a sure539 house;1004 because3588 my lord113 fighteth3898 the battles4421 of the LORD,3068 and evil7451 hath not3808 been found4672 in thee all thy days.4480 3117 29 Yet a man120 is risen6965 to pursue7291 thee, and to seek1245 853 thy soul:5315 but the soul5315 of my lord113 shall be1961 bound6887 in the bundle6872 of life2416 with854 the LORD3068 thy God;430 and the souls5315 of thine enemies,341 them shall he sling out,7049 as out of the middle8432 of a sling.7050 30 And it shall come to pass,1961 when3588 the LORD3068 shall have done6213 to my lord113 according to all3605 853 the good2896 that834 he hath spoken1696 concerning5921 thee, and shall have appointed6680 thee ruler5057 over5921 Israel;3478 31 That this2063 shall be1961 no3808 grief6330 unto thee, nor offense4383 of heart3820 unto my lord,113 either that thou hast shed8210 blood1818 causeless,2600 or that my lord113 hath avenged3467 himself: but when the LORD3068 shall have dealt well3190 with my lord,113 then remember2142 853 thine handmaid.519 32 And David1732 said559 to Abigail,26 Blessed1288 be the LORD3068 God430 of Israel,3478 which834 sent7971 thee this2088 day3117 to meet7125 me: 33 And blessed1288 be thy advice,2940 and blessed1288 be thou,859 which834 hast kept3607 me this2088 day3117 from coming4480 935 to shed blood,1818 and from avenging3467 myself with mine own hand.3027 34 For in very deed,199 as the LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 liveth,2416 which834 hath kept me back4513 from hurting4480 7489 thee, except3588 3884 thou hadst hasted4116 and come935 to meet7125 me, surely3588 there had not518 been left3498 unto Nabal5037 by5704 the morning1242 light216 any that pisseth8366 against the wall.7023 35 So David1732 received3947 of her hand4480 3027 853 that which834 she had brought935 him, and said559 unto her, Go up5927 in peace7965 to thine house;1004 see,7200 I have hearkened8085 to thy voice,6963 and have accepted5375 thy person.6440 36 And Abigail26 came935 to413 Nabal;5037 and, behold,2009 he held a feast4960 in his house,1004 like the feast4960 of a king;4428 and Nabal's5037 heart3820 was merry2896 within5921 him, for he1931 was very5704 3966 drunken:7910 wherefore she told5046 him nothing,3808 1697 less6996 or more,1419 until5704 the morning1242 light.216 37 But it came to pass1961 in the morning,1242 when the wine3196 was gone out3318 of Nabal,4480 5037 and his wife802 had told5046 him 853 these428 things,1697 that his heart3820 died4191 within7130 him, and he1931 became1961 as a stone.68 38 And it came to pass1961 about ten6235 days3117 after, that the LORD3068 smote5062 853 Nabal,5037 that he died.4191 39 And when David1732 heard8085 that3588 Nabal5037 was dead,4191 he said,559 Blessed1288 be the LORD,3068 that834 hath pleaded7378 853 the cause7379 of my reproach2781 from the hand4480 3027 of Nabal,5037 and hath kept2820 his servant5650 from evil:4480 7451 for the LORD3068 hath returned7725 the wickedness7451 of Nabal5037 upon his own head.7218 And David1732 sent7971 and communed1696 with Abigail,26 to take3947 her to him to wife.802 40 And when the servants5650 of David1732 were come935 to413 Abigail26 to Carmel,3760 they spoke1696 unto413 her, saying,559 David1732 sent7971 us unto413 thee, to take3947 thee to him to wife.802 41 And she arose,6965 and bowed herself7812 on her face639 to the earth,776 and said,559 Behold,2009 let thine handmaid519 be a servant8198 to wash7364 the feet7272 of the servants5650 of my lord.113 42 And Abigail26 hasted,4116 and arose,6965 and rode7392 upon5921 an ass,2543 with five2568 damsels5291 of hers that went1980 after7272 her; and she went1980 after310 the messengers4397 of David,1732 and became1961 his wife.802 43 David1732 also took3947 Ahinoam293 of Jezreel;4480 3157 and they were1961 also1571 both8147 of them his wives.802 44 But Saul7586 had given5414 853 Michal4324 his daughter,1323 David's1732 wife,802 to Phalti6406 the son1121 of Laish,3919 which834 was of Gallim.4480 1554 |
1 καὶ ἀπέθανεν Σαμουηλ καὶ συναθροίζονται πᾶς Ισραηλ καὶ κόπτονται αὐτὸν καὶ θάπτουσιν αὐτὸν ἐν οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ ἐν Αρμαθαιμ καὶ ἀνέστη Δαυιδ καὶ κατέβη εἰς τὴν ἔρημον Μααν 2 καὶ ἦν ἄνθρωπος ἐν τῇ Μααν καὶ τὰ ποίμνια αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Καρμήλῳ καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος μέγας σφόδρα καὶ τούτῳ ποίμνια τρισχίλια καὶ αἶγες χίλιαι καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ κείρειν τὸ ποίμνιον αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ Καρμήλῳ 3 καὶ ὄνομα τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ Ναβαλ καὶ ὄνομα τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ Αβιγαια καὶ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ ἀγαθὴ συνέσει καὶ καλὴ τῷ εἴδει σφόδρα καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος σκληρὸς καὶ πονηρὸς ἐν ἐπιτηδεύμασιν καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος κυνικός 4 καὶ ἤκουσεν Δαυιδ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ὅτι κείρει Ναβαλ ὁ Καρμήλιος τὸ ποίμνιον αὐτοῦ 5 καὶ Δαυιδ ἀπέστειλεν δέκα παιδάρια καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς παιδαρίοις ἀνάβητε εἰς Κάρμηλον καὶ ἀπέλθατε πρὸς Ναβαλ καὶ ἐρωτήσατε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου εἰς εἰρήνην 6 καὶ ἐρεῖτε τάδε εἰς ὥρας καὶ σὺ ὑγιαίνων καὶ ὁ οἶκός σου καὶ πάντα τὰ σὰ ὑγιαίνοντα 7 καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἀκήκοα ὅτι κείρουσίν σοι νῦν οἱ ποιμένες σου οἳ ἦσαν μεθ᾽ ἡμῶν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ οὐκ ἀπεκωλύσαμεν αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐκ ἐνετειλάμεθα αὐτοῖς οὐθὲν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ὄντων αὐτῶν ἐν Καρμήλῳ 8 ἐρώτησον τὰ παιδάριά σου καὶ ἀπαγγελοῦσίν σοι καὶ εὑρέτωσαν τὰ παιδάρια χάριν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου ὅτι ἐφ᾽ ἡμέραν ἀγαθὴν ἥκομεν δὸς δὴ ὃ ἐὰν εὕρῃ ἡ χείρ σου τῷ υἱῷ σου τῷ Δαυιδ 9 καὶ ἔρχονται τὰ παιδάρια καὶ λαλοῦσιν τοὺς λόγους τούτους πρὸς Ναβαλ κατὰ πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι Δαυιδ καὶ ἀνεπήδησεν 10 καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Ναβαλ τοῖς παισὶν Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν τίς ὁ Δαυιδ καὶ τίς ὁ υἱὸς Ιεσσαι σήμερον πεπληθυμμένοι εἰσὶν οἱ δοῦλοι ἀναχωροῦντες ἕκαστος ἐκ προσώπου τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ 11 καὶ λήμψομαι τοὺς ἄρτους μου καὶ τὸν οἶνόν μου καὶ τὰ θύματά μου ἃ τέθυκα τοῖς κείρουσίν μου τὰ πρόβατα καὶ δώσω αὐτὰ ἀνδράσιν οἷς οὐκ οἶδα πόθεν εἰσίν 12 καὶ ἀπεστράφησαν τὰ παιδάρια Δαυιδ εἰς ὁδὸν αὐτῶν καὶ ἀνέστρεψαν καὶ ἦλθον καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν τῷ Δαυιδ κατὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα 13 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ τοῖς ἀνδράσιν αὐτοῦ ζώσασθε ἕκαστος τὴν ῥομφαίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνέβησαν ὀπίσω Δαυιδ ὡς τετρακόσιοι ἄνδρες καὶ οἱ διακόσιοι ἐκάθισαν μετὰ τῶν σκευῶν 14 καὶ τῇ Αβιγαια γυναικὶ Ναβαλ ἀπήγγειλεν ἓν τῶν παιδαρίων λέγων ἰδοὺ Δαυιδ ἀπέστειλεν ἀγγέλους ἐκ τῆς ἐρήμου εὐλογῆσαι τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν καὶ ἐξέκλινεν ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν 15 καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες ἀγαθοὶ ἡμῖν σφόδρα οὐκ ἀπεκώλυσαν ἡμᾶς οὐδὲ ἐνετείλαντο ἡμῖν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ἦμεν παρ᾽ αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐν τῷ εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἐν ἀγρῷ 16 ὡς τεῖχος ἦσαν περὶ ἡμᾶς καὶ τὴν νύκτα καὶ τὴν ἡμέραν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας ἃς ἤμεθα παρ᾽ αὐτοῖς ποιμαίνοντες τὸ ποίμνιον 17 καὶ νῦν γνῶθι καὶ ἰδὲ τί σὺ ποιήσεις ὅτι συντετέλεσται ἡ κακία εἰς τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν καὶ εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ καὶ οὗτος υἱὸς λοιμός καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν λαλῆσαι πρὸς αὐτόν 18 καὶ ἔσπευσεν Αβιγαια καὶ ἔλαβεν διακοσίους ἄρτους καὶ δύο ἀγγεῖα οἴνου καὶ πέντε πρόβατα πεποιημένα καὶ πέντε οιφι ἀλφίτου καὶ γομορ ἓν σταφίδος καὶ διακοσίας παλάθας καὶ ἔθετο ἐπὶ τοὺς ὄνους 19 καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς παιδαρίοις αὐτῆς προπορεύεσθε ἔμπροσθέν μου καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ὀπίσω ὑμῶν παραγίνομαι καὶ τῷ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς οὐκ ἀπήγγειλεν 20 καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῆς ἐπιβεβηκυίης ἐπὶ τὴν ὄνον καὶ καταβαινούσης ἐν σκέπῃ τοῦ ὄρους καὶ ἰδοὺ Δαυιδ καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ κατέβαινον εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῆς καὶ ἀπήντησεν αὐτοῖς 21 καὶ Δαυιδ εἶπεν ἴσως εἰς ἄδικον πεφύλακα πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ οὐκ ἐνετειλάμεθα λαβεῖν ἐκ πάντων τῶν αὐτοῦ οὐθέν καὶ ἀνταπέδωκέν μοι πονηρὰ ἀντὶ ἀγαθῶν 22 τάδε ποιήσαι ὁ θεὸς τῷ Δαυιδ καὶ τάδε προσθείη εἰ ὑπολείψομαι ἐκ πάντων τῶν τοῦ Ναβαλ ἕως πρωὶ οὐροῦντα πρὸς τοῖχον 23 καὶ εἶδεν Αβιγαια τὸν Δαυιδ καὶ ἔσπευσεν καὶ κατεπήδησεν ἀπὸ τῆς ὄνου καὶ ἔπεσεν ἐνώπιον Δαυιδ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτῆς καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν 24 ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν ἐν ἐμοί κύριέ μου ἡ ἀδικία λαλησάτω δὴ ἡ δούλη σου εἰς τὰ ὦτά σου καὶ ἄκουσον τῆς δούλης σου λόγον 25 μὴ δὴ θέσθω ὁ κύριός μου καρδίαν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸν ἄνθρωπον τὸν λοιμὸν τοῦτον ὅτι κατὰ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ οὕτως ἐστίν Ναβαλ ὄνομα αὐτῷ καὶ ἀφροσύνη μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐγὼ ἡ δούλη σου οὐκ εἶδον τὰ παιδάριά σου ἃ ἀπέστειλας 26 καὶ νῦν κύριε ζῇ κύριος καὶ ζῇ ἡ ψυχή σου καθὼς ἐκώλυσέν σε κύριος τοῦ μὴ ἐλθεῖν εἰς αἷμα ἀθῷον καὶ σῴζειν τὴν χεῖρά σού σοι καὶ νῦν γένοιντο ὡς Ναβαλ οἱ ἐχθροί σου καὶ οἱ ζητοῦντες τῷ κυρίῳ μου κακά 27 καὶ νῦν λαβὲ τὴν εὐλογίαν ταύτην ἣν ἐνήνοχεν ἡ δούλη σου τῷ κυρίῳ μου καὶ δώσεις τοῖς παιδαρίοις τοῖς παρεστηκόσιν τῷ κυρίῳ μου 28 ἆρον δὴ τὸ ἀνόμημα τῆς δούλης σου ὅτι ποιῶν ποιήσει κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου οἶκον πιστόν ὅτι πόλεμον κυρίου ὁ κύριός μου πολεμεῖ καὶ κακία οὐχ εὑρεθήσεται ἐν σοὶ πώποτε 29 καὶ ἀναστήσεται ἄνθρωπος καταδιώκων σε καὶ ζητῶν τὴν ψυχήν σου καὶ ἔσται ἡ ψυχὴ κυρίου μου ἐνδεδεμένη ἐν δεσμῷ τῆς ζωῆς παρὰ κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ καὶ ψυχὴν ἐχθρῶν σου σφενδονήσεις ἐν μέσῳ τῆς σφενδόνης 30 καὶ ἔσται ὅτι ποιήσει κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου πάντα ὅσα ἐλάλησεν ἀγαθὰ ἐπὶ σέ καὶ ἐντελεῖταί σοι κύριος εἰς ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ Ισραηλ 31 καὶ οὐκ ἔσται σοι τοῦτο βδελυγμὸς καὶ σκάνδαλον τῷ κυρίῳ μου ἐκχέαι αἷμα ἀθῷον δωρεὰν καὶ σῶσαι χεῖρα κυρίου μου αὐτῷ καὶ ἀγαθώσει κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου καὶ μνησθήσῃ τῆς δούλης σου ἀγαθῶσαι αὐτῇ 32 καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ τῇ Αβιγαια εὐλογητὸς κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ὃς ἀπέστειλέν σε σήμερον ἐν ταύτῃ εἰς ἀπάντησίν μου 33 καὶ εὐλογητὸς ὁ τρόπος σου καὶ εὐλογημένη σὺ ἡ ἀποκωλύσασά με σήμερον ἐν ταύτῃ μὴ ἐλθεῖν εἰς αἵματα καὶ σῶσαι χεῖρά μου ἐμοί 34 πλὴν ὅτι ζῇ κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ὃς ἀπεκώλυσέν με σήμερον τοῦ κακοποιῆσαί σε ὅτι εἰ μὴ ἔσπευσας καὶ παρεγένου εἰς ἀπάντησίν μοι τότε εἶπα εἰ ὑπολειφθήσεται τῷ Ναβαλ ἕως φωτὸς τοῦ πρωὶ οὐρῶν πρὸς τοῖχον 35 καὶ ἔλαβεν Δαυιδ ἐκ χειρὸς αὐτῆς πάντα ἃ ἔφερεν αὐτῷ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ἀνάβηθι εἰς εἰρήνην εἰς οἶκόν σου βλέπε ἤκουσα τῆς φωνῆς σου καὶ ᾑρέτισα τὸ πρόσωπόν σου 36 καὶ παρεγενήθη Αβιγαια πρὸς Ναβαλ καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτῷ πότος ἐν οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ ὡς πότος βασιλέως καὶ ἡ καρδία Ναβαλ ἀγαθὴ ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν καὶ αὐτὸς μεθύων ἕως σφόδρα καὶ οὐκ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ ῥῆμα μικρὸν ἢ μέγα ἕως φωτὸς τοῦ πρωί 37 καὶ ἐγένετο πρωί ὡς ἐξένηψεν ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴνου Ναβαλ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα καὶ ἐναπέθανεν ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ αὐτὸς γίνεται ὡς λίθος 38 καὶ ἐγένετο ὡσεὶ δέκα ἡμέραι καὶ ἐπάταξεν κύριος τὸν Ναβαλ καὶ ἀπέθανεν 39 καὶ ἤκουσεν Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν εὐλογητὸς κύριος ὃς ἔκρινεν τὴν κρίσιν τοῦ ὀνειδισμοῦ μου ἐκ χειρὸς Ναβαλ καὶ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ περιεποιήσατο ἐκ χειρὸς κακῶν καὶ τὴν κακίαν Ναβαλ ἀπέστρεψεν κύριος εἰς κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Δαυιδ καὶ ἐλάλησεν περὶ Αβιγαιας λαβεῖν αὐτὴν ἑαυτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα 40 καὶ ἦλθον οἱ παῖδες Δαυιδ πρὸς Αβιγαιαν εἰς Κάρμηλον καὶ ἐλάλησαν αὐτῇ λέγοντες Δαυιδ ἀπέστειλεν ἡμᾶς πρὸς σὲ λαβεῖν σε αὐτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα 41 καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ προσεκύνησεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον καὶ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ ἡ δούλη σου εἰς παιδίσκην νίψαι πόδας τῶν παίδων σου 42 καὶ ἀνέστη Αβιγαια καὶ ἐπέβη ἐπὶ τὴν ὄνον καὶ πέντε

1 Mortuus est autem Samuel, et congregatus est universus Israël, et planxerunt eum, et sepelierunt eum in domo sua in Ramatha. Consurgensque David descendit in desertum Pharan. 2 Erat autem vir quispiam in solitudine Maon, et possessio ejus in Carmelo, et homo ille magnus nimis: erantque ei oves tria millia, et mille capræ: et accidit ut tonderetur grex ejus in Carmelo. 3 Nomen autem viri illius erat Nabal. Et nomen uxoris ejus Abigail: eratque mulier illa prudentissima, et speciosa: porro vir ejus durus, et pessimus, et malitiosus: erat autem de genere Caleb. 4 Cum ergo audisset David in deserto quod tonderet Nabal gregem suum, 5 misit decem juvenes, et dixit eis: Ascendite in Carmelum, et venietis ad Nabal, et salutabitis eum ex nomine meo pacifice. 6 Et dicetis: Sit fratribus meis et tibi pax, et domui tuæ pax, et omnibus, quæcumque habes, sit pax. 7 Audivi quod tonderent pastores tui, qui erant nobiscum in deserto: numquam eis molesti fuimus, nec aliquando defuit quidquam eis de grege, omni tempore quo fuerunt nobiscum in Carmelo. 8 Interroga pueros tuos, et indicabunt tibi. Nunc ergo inveniant pueri tui gratiam in oculis tuis: in die enim bona venimus: quodcumque invenerit manus tua, da servis tuis, et filio tuo David. 9 Cumque venissent pueri David, locuti sunt ad Nabal omnia verba hæc ex nomine David: et siluerunt. 10 Respondens autem Nabal pueris David, ait: Quis est David? et quis est filius Isai? hodie increverunt servi qui fugiunt dominos suos. 11 Tollam ergo panes meos, et aquas meas, et carnes pecorum quæ occidi tonsoribus meis, et dabo viris quos nescio unde sint? 12 Regressi sunt itaque pueri David per viam suam, et reversi venerunt, et nuntiaverunt ei omnia verba quæ dixerat. 13 Tunc ait David pueris suis: Accingatur unusquisque gladio suo. Et accincti sunt singuli gladiis suis, accinctusque est et David ense suo: et secuti sunt David quasi quadringenti viri: porro ducenti remanserunt ad sarcinas. 14 Abigail autem uxori Nabal nuntiavit unus de pueris suis, dicens: Ecce David misit nuntios de deserto, ut benedicerent domino nostro: et aversatus est eos. 15 Homines isti boni satis fuerant nobis, et non molesti: nec quidquam aliquando periit omni tempore quo fuimus conversati cum eis in deserto: 16 pro muro erant nobis tam in nocte quam in die, omnibus diebus quibus pavimus apud eos greges. 17 Quam ob rem considera, et recogita quid facias: quoniam completa est malitia adversum virum tuum, et adversum domum tuam, et ipse est filius Belial, ita ut nemo possit ei loqui. 18 Festinavit igitur Abigail, et tulit ducentos panes, et duos utres vini, et quinque arietes coctos, et quinque sata polentæ, et centum ligaturas uvæ passæ, et ducentas massas caricarum, et posuit super asinos: 19 dixitque pueris suis: Præcedite me: ecce ego post tergum sequar vos: viro autem suo Nabal non indicavit. 20 Cum ergo ascendisset asinum, et descenderet ad radices montis, David et viri ejus descendebant in occursum ejus: quibus et illa occurrit. 21 Et ait David: Vere frustra servavi omnia quæ hujus erant in deserto, et non periit quidquam de cunctis quæ ad eum pertinebant: et reddidit mihi malum pro bono. 22 Hæc faciat Deus inimicis David, et hæc addat, si reliquero de omnibus quæ ad ipsum pertinent usque mane mingentem ad parietem. 23 Cum autem vidisset Abigail David, festinavit, et descendit de asino, et procidit coram David super faciem suam, et adoravit super terram, 24 et cecidit ad pedes ejus, et dixit: In me sit, domine mi, hæc iniquitas: loquatur, obsecro, ancilla tua in auribus tuis, et audi verba famulæ tuæ. 25 Ne ponat, oro, dominus meus rex cor suum super virum istum iniquum Nabal: quoniam secundum nomen suum stultus est, et stultitia est cum eo: ego autem ancilla tua non vidi pueros tuos, domine mi, quos misisti. 26 Nunc ergo, domine mi, vivit Dominus, et vivit anima tua, qui prohibuit te ne venires in sanguinem, et salvavit manum tuam tibi: et nunc fiant sicut Nabal inimici tui, et qui quærunt domino meo malum. 27 Quapropter suscipe benedictionem hanc, quam attulit ancilla tua tibi domino meo, et da pueris qui sequuntur te dominum meum. 28 Aufer iniquitatem famulæ tuæ: faciens enim faciet Dominus tibi domino meo domum fidelem, quia prælia Domini, domine mi, tu præliaris: malitia ergo non inveniatur in te omnibus diebus vitæ tuæ. 29 Si enim surrexerit aliquando homo persequens te, et quærens animam tuam, erit anima domini mei custodita quasi in fasciculo viventium apud Dominum Deum tuum: porro inimicorum tuorum anima rotabitur, quasi in impetu et circulo fundæ. 30 Cum ergo fecerit Dominus tibi domino meo omnia quæ locutus est bona de te, et constituerit te ducem super Israël, 31 non erit tibi hoc in singultum, et in scrupulum cordis domino meo, quod effuderis sanguinem innoxium, aut ipse te ultus fueris: et cum benefecerit Dominus domino meo, recordaberis ancillæ tuæ. 32 Et ait David ad Abigail: Benedictus Dominus Deus Israël, qui misit hodie te in occursum meum, et benedictum eloquium tuum, 33 et benedicta tu, quæ prohibuisti me hodie ne irem ad sanguinem, et ulciscerer me manu mea. 34 Alioquin vivit Dominus Deus Israël, qui prohibuit me ne malum facerem tibi: nisi cito venisses in occursum mihi, non remansisset Nabal usque ad lucem matutinam mingens ad parietem. 35 Suscepit ergo David de manu ejus omnia quæ attulerat ei, dixitque ei: Vade pacifice in domum tuam: ecce audivi vocem tuam, et honoravi faciem tuam. 36 Venit autem Abigail ad Nabal: et ecce erat ei convivium in domo ejus quasi convivium regis, et cor Nabal jucundum: erat enim ebrius nimis: et non indicavit ei verbum pusillum aut grande usque mane. 37 Diluculo autem cum digessisset vinum Nabal, indicavit ei uxor sua verba hæc: et emortuum est cor ejus intrinsecus, et factus est quasi lapis. 38 Cumque pertransissent decem dies, percussit Dominus Nabal, et mortuus est. 39 Quod cum audisset David mortuum Nabal, ait: Benedictus Dominus, qui judicavit causam opprobrii mei de manu Nabal, et servum suum custodivit a malo, et malitiam Nabal reddidit Dominus in caput ejus. Misit ergo David, et locutus est ad Abigail, ut sumeret eam sibi in uxorem. 40 Et venerunt pueri David ad Abigail in Carmelum, et locuti sunt ad eam, dicentes: David misit nos ad te, ut accipiat te sibi in uxorem. 41 Quæ consurgens, adoravit prona in terram, et ait: Ecce famula tua sit in ancillam, ut lavet pedes servorum domini mei. 42 Et festinavit, et surrexit Abigail, et ascendit super asinum, et quinque puellæ ierunt cum ea, pedissequæ ejus, et secuta est nuntios David: et facta est illi uxor. 43 Sed et Achinoam accepit David de Jezraël: et fuit utraque uxor ejus. 44 Saul autem dedit Michol filiam suam, uxorem David, Phalti filio Lais, qui erat de Gallim. |
