1 Samuel 25:40-42

Revised Geneva Translation

⁴⁰ And when the servants of David had come to Abigail, to Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, “David sent us to you, to take you as his wife.”

⁴¹ And she arose and bowed herself on her face to the earth, and said, “Behold, let your handmaid be a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.”

⁴² And Abigail hurried and arose and rode upon a donkey. And her five maids followed her. And she went after the messengers of David and was his wife.
