1 Samuel 25:38-40

Easy-to-Read Version

³⁸ About ten days later, the Lord gave him a stroke and Nabal died.

³⁹ When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Praise the Lord! He judged Nabal to be wrong for insulting me and kept me from doing something wrong. The Lord made Nabal pay for what he did.”

Then David sent a message to Abigail and asked her to be his wife. ⁴⁰ His servants went to Carmel with this message, “David sent us to get you. He wants you to be his wife.”
