¹⁰ Then David said to Jonathan, “Who will tell me, or what if your father answers you roughly?”

¹³ Then the king answered the people ^[a]roughly, and rejected the advice which the elders had given him;

¹⁷ Now therefore, know and consider what you will do, for ^(A)harm is determined against our master and against all his household. For he is such a ^(B)scoundrel^[a] that one cannot speak to him.”

¹⁴ Now one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, “Look, David sent messengers from the wilderness to greet our master; and he ^[a]reviled them.

¹⁰ Then Nabal answered David’s servants, and said, ^(A)“Who is David, and who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants nowadays who break away each one from his master.

³⁰ Then Saul’s anger was aroused against Jonathan, and he said to him, “You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of your mother’s nakedness? ³¹ For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, you shall not be established, nor your kingdom. Now therefore, send and bring him to me, for he ^[a]shall surely die.”

³² And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said to him, ^(A)“Why should he be killed? What has he done?” ³³ Then Saul ^(B)cast a spear at him to ^[b]kill him, ^(C)by which Jonathan knew that it was determined by his father to kill David.

³⁴ So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved for David, because his father had treated him shamefully.

³⁰ “The man who is lord of the land ^(A)spoke ^[a]roughly to us, and took us for spies of the country.

⁷ Joseph saw his brothers and recognized them, but he acted as ^(A)a stranger to them and spoke ^[a]roughly to them. Then he said to them, “Where do you come from?”

And they said, “From the land of Canaan to buy food.”
