English Standard Version
21 Now David had said, “Surely in vain have I guarded all that this fellow has in the wilderness, (A)so that nothing was missed of all that belonged to him, and he has (B)returned me evil for good. 22 (C)God do so to the enemies of David[a] and more also, if by morning I leave so much as one male of all who belong to him.”
23 When Abigail saw David, she hurried (D)and got down from the donkey (E)and fell before David on her face and bowed to the ground.
