1 Samuel 25:27-32
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 25
27
And now let this gift which your servant has brought to my lord be given to the young men who accompany my lord.
28
Please forgive the offense of your slave; for the
Lord
will certainly make for my lord an enduring house, because my lord is fighting the battles of the
Lord
, and evil will not be found in you all your days.
29
Should anyone rise up to pursue you and to seek your life, then the life of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of the living with the
Lord
your God; but the lives of your enemies He will sling out as from the hollow of a sling.
30
And when the
Lord
does for my lord in accordance with all the good that He has spoken concerning you, and appoints you ruler over Israel,
31
this will not become an obstacle to you, or a troubled heart to my lord, both by having shed blood without cause and by my lord’s having avenged himself. When the
Lord
deals well with my lord, then remember your slave.'
32
Then David said to Abigail, 'Blessed be the
Lord
God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me,
King James Version
Chapter 25
27
And now this blessing which thine handmaid hath brought unto my lord, let it even be given unto the young men that follow my lord.
28
I pray thee, forgive the trespass of thine handmaid: for the
Lord
will certainly make my lord a sure house; because my lord fighteth the battles of the
Lord
, and evil hath not been found in thee all thy days.
29
Yet a man is risen to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: but the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the
Lord
thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, as out of the middle of a sling.
30
And it shall come to pass, when the
Lord
shall have done to my lord according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel;
31
That this shall be no grief unto thee, nor offence of heart unto my lord, either that thou hast shed blood causeless, or that my lord hath avenged himself: but when the
Lord
shall have dealt well with my lord, then remember thine handmaid.
32
And David said to Abigail, Blessed be the
Lord
God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me:

27
Let this gift your servant has brought to my lord be given to the young men who follow my lord.
28
Please forgive your servant’s offense, for the
Lord
is certain to make a lasting dynasty for my lord because he fights the
Lord
’s battles. Throughout your life, may evil not be found in you.
29
"Someone is pursuing you and intends to take your life. My lord’s life is tucked safely in the place where the
Lord
your God protects the living, but he is flinging away your enemies’ lives like stones from a sling.
30
When the
Lord
does for my lord all the good he promised you and appoints you ruler over Israel,
31
there will not be remorse or a troubled conscience for my lord because of needless bloodshed or my lord’s revenge. And when the
Lord
does good things for my lord, may you remember me your servant."
32
Then David said to Abigail, "Blessed be the
Lord
God of Israel, who sent you to meet me today!

Chapter 25
27
And here is a present that I, your servant, have brought to you and your young men.
28
Please forgive me if I have offended you in any way. The
Lord
will surely reward you with a lasting dynasty, for you are fighting the
Lord
’s battles. And you have not done wrong throughout your entire life.
29
Even when you are chased by those who seek to kill you, your life is safe in the care of the
Lord
your God, secure in his treasure pouch! But the lives of your enemies will disappear like stones shot from a sling!
30
When the
Lord
has done all he promised and has made you leader of Israel,
31
don’t let this be a blemish on your record. Then your conscience won’t have to bear the staggering burden of needless bloodshed and vengeance. And when the
Lord
has done these great things for you, please remember me, your servant!'
32
David replied to Abigail, 'Praise the
Lord
, the God of Israel, who has sent you to meet me today!

has fulfilled for my lord every good thing he promised concerning him and has appointed him ruler over Israel,
