David gave them this message for Nabal: “May you and your family be well and all that you own be well. I heard that you are cutting wool from your sheep. Your shepherds were with us for a while, and we did nothing wrong to them. We never took anything from your shepherds while they were at Carmel. Ask your servants and they will tell you this is true.
