1 Samuel 25:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David.

⁹ And when David's servants came, they spoke to Nabal all these words in David's name: and then held their peace.

¹⁰ But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters.
