1 Samuel 25:34-36
Holman Christian Standard Bible
34 Otherwise, as surely as the Lord God of Israel lives, who prevented me from harming you, if you had not come quickly to meet me, Nabal wouldn’t have had any men[a] left by morning light.” 35 Then David accepted what she had brought him and said, “Go home in peace.(A) See, I have heard what you said and have granted your request.”(B)
36 Then Abigail went to Nabal, and there he was in his house, holding a feast fit for a king.(C) Nabal was in a good mood[b] and very drunk, so she didn’t say anything[c] to him(D) until morning light.
