1 Samuel 25:23 in Context — 1 Samuel 25

21 E Davi havia dito: Certamente em vão guardei tudo o que este tem no deserto, sem que nada lhe tenha faltado de tudo quanto é seu; e ele me devolveu mal por bem.

22 Assim faça Deus, e assim acrescente aos inimigos de Davi, que daqui à amanhã não tenho de deixar de tudo o que for seu nem ainda macho.

23 E quando Abigail viu a Davi, desceu prontamente do asno, e prostrando-se diante de Davi sobre seu rosto, inclinou-se à terra;

24 E lançou-se a seus pés, e disse: Senhor meu, sobre mim seja o pecado; mas rogo-te fale tua serva em teus ouvidos, e ouve as palavras de tua serva.

25 Não ponha agora meu senhor seu coração a aquele homem grosseiro, a Nabal; porque conforme seu nome, assim é. O se chama Nabal, e a loucura está com ele: mas eu tua serva não vi os criados de meu senhor, os quais tu enviaste.
