1 Samuel 25:7-9

Young's Literal Translation

⁷ and, now, I have heard that thou hast shearers; now, the shepherds whom thou hast have been with us, we have not put them to shame, nor hath anything been looked after by them, all the days of their being in Carmel.

⁸ `Ask thy young men, and they declare to thee, and the young men find grace in thine eyes, for on a good day we have come; give, I pray thee, that which thy hand findeth, to thy servants, and to thy son, to David.'

⁹ And the young men of David come in, and speak unto Nabal according to all these words, in the name of David -- and rest.
