και ονομα τω ανθρωπω ναβαλ και ονομα τη γυναικι αυτου αβιγαια και η γυνη αυτου αγαθη συνεσει και καλη τω ειδει σφοδρα και ο ανθρωπος σκληρος και πονηρος εν επιτηδευμασιν και ο ανθρωπος κυνικος

και δαυιδ απεστειλεν δεκα παιδαρια και ειπεν τοις παιδαριοις αναβητε εις καρμηλον και απελθατε προς ναβαλ και ερωτησατε αυτον επι τω ονοματι μου εις ειρηνην

και ερχονται τα παιδαρια και λαλουσιν τους λογους τουτους προς ναβαλ κατα παντα τα ρηματα ταυτα εν τω ονοματι δαυιδ και ανεπηδησεν

Nabal answered David’s servants and said, “Who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants who break away from their masters these days.

And Nabal H5037 answered H6030 (QalImpf) David’s H1732 servants, H5650 and said, H559 (QalImpf) Who [is] David? H1732 and who [is] the son H1121 of Jesse? H3448 there be many H7231 (QalPerf) servants H5650 now a days H3117 that break away H6555 (HithPtc) every man H376 from H6440 his master. H113

και απεκριθη ναβαλ τοις παισιν δαυιδ και ειπεν τις ο δαυιδ και τις ο υιος ιεσσαι σημερον πεπληθυμμενοι εισιν οι δουλοι αναχωρουντες εκαστος εκ προσωπου του κυριου αυτου

But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, “Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master; and he insulted them.

But one H259 of the young men H5288 told H5046 (HiphPerf) Abigail, H26 Nabal’s H5037 wife, H802 saying, H559 (QalInf) Behold, David H1732 sent H7971 (QalPerf) messengers H4397 out of the wilderness H4057 to salute H1288 (PielInf) our master; H113 and he railed H5860 (QalImpf) on them.

και τη αβιγαια γυναικι ναβαλ απηγγειλεν εν των παιδαριων λεγων ιδου δαυιδ απεστειλεν αγγελους εκ της ερημου ευλογησαι τον κυριον ημων και εξεκλινεν απ αυτων

She said to her young men, “Go on before me. Behold, I am coming after you.” But she didn’t tell her husband, Nabal.

And she said H559 (QalImpf) unto her servants, H5288 Go on H5674 (QalImpv) before H6440 me; behold, I come H935 (QalActPtc) after H310 you. But she told H5046 (HiphPerf) not her husband H376 Nabal. H5037

και ειπεν τοις παιδαριοις αυτης προπορευεσθε εμπροσθεν μου και ιδου εγω οπισω υμων παραγινομαι και τω ανδρι αυτης ουκ απηγγειλεν

Please don’t let my lord pay attention to this worthless fellow, Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal° is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your servant, didn’t see my lord’s young men whom you sent.

1 Samuel 25:25 “Nabal” means “foolish”.

Let H7760 (QalImpf) not my lord, H113 I pray thee, regard H3820 this man H376 of Belial, H1100 [even] Nabal: H5037 for as his name H8034 [is], so [is] he; Nabal H5037 [is] his name, H8034 and folly H5039 [is] with him: but I thine handmaid H519 saw H7200 (QalPerf) not the young men H5288 of my lord, H113 whom thou didst send. H7971 (QalPerf)

μη δη θεσθω ο κυριος μου καρδιαν αυτου επι τον ανθρωπον τον λοιμον τουτον οτι κατα το ονομα αυτου ουτως εστιν ναβαλ ονομα αυτω και αφροσυνη μετ αυτου και εγω η δουλη σου ουκ ειδον τα παιδαρια σου α απεστειλας

Now therefore, my lord, as Yahweh lives and as your soul lives, since Yahweh has withheld you from blood guiltiness and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now therefore let your enemies and those who seek evil to my lord be as Nabal.

Now therefore, my lord, H113 [as] the Lord H3068 liveth, H2416 and [as] thy soul H5315 liveth, H2416 seeing the Lord H3068 hath withholden H4513 (QalPerf) thee from coming H935 (QalInf) to [shed] blood, H1818 and from avenging H3467 (HiphInf) thyself with thine own hand, H3027 now let thine enemies, H341 (QalActPtc) and they that seek H1245 (PielPtc) evil H7451 to my lord, H113 be as Nabal. H5037

και νυν κυριε ζη κυριος και ζη η ψυχη σου καθως εκωλυσεν σε κυριος του μη ελθειν εις αιμα αθωον και σωζειν την χειρα σου σοι και νυν γενοιντο ως ναβαλ οι εχθροι σου και οι ζητουντες τω κυριω μου κακα

For indeed, as Yahweh the God of Israel lives, who has withheld me from harming you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn’t have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”^§

1 Samuel 25:34 or, one male.

For in very deed, H199 [as] the Lord H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 liveth, H2416 which hath kept me back H4513 (QalPerf) from hurting H7489 (HiphInf) thee, except H3884 thou hadst hasted H4116 (PielPerf) and come H935 (QalImpf) to meet H7125 (QalInf) me, surely there had not been left H3498 (NiphPerf) unto Nabal H5037 by the morning H1242 light H216 any that pisseth H8366 (HiphPtc) against the wall. H7023

πλην οτι ζη κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ ος απεκωλυσεν με σημερον του κακοποιησαι σε οτι ει μη εσπευσας και παρεγενου εις απαντησιν μοι τοτε ειπα ει υπολειφθησεται τω ναβαλ εως φωτος του πρωι ουρων προς τοιχον

Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house like the feast of a king. Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing until the morning light.

And Abigail H26 came H935 (QalImpf) to Nabal; H5037 and, behold, he held a feast H4960 in his house, H1004 like the feast H4960 of a king; H4428 and Nabal’s H5037 heart H3820 [was] merry H2896 within him, for he [was] very H3966 drunken: H7910 wherefore she told H5046 (HiphPerf) him nothing, H1697 less H6996 or more, H1419 until the morning H1242 light. H216

και παρεγενηθη αβιγαια προς ναβαλ και ιδου αυτω ποτος εν οικω αυτου ως ποτος βασιλεως και η καρδια ναβαλ αγαθη επ αυτον και αυτος μεθυων εως σφοδρα και ουκ απηγγειλεν αυτω ρημα μικρον η μεγα εως φωτος του πρωι

In the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal, his wife told him these things; and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.

But it came to pass in the morning, H1242 when the wine H3196 was gone out H3318 (QalInf) of Nabal, H5037 and his wife H802 had told H5046 (HiphImpf) him these things, H1697 that his heart H3820 died H4191 (QalImpf) within H7130 him, and he became [as] a stone. H68

και εγενετο πρωι ως εξενηψεν απο του οινου ναβαλ απηγγειλεν αυτω η γυνη αυτου τα ρηματα ταυτα και εναπεθανεν η καρδια αυτου εν αυτω και αυτος γινεται ως λιθος

About ten days later, Yahweh struck Nabal, so that he died.

And it came to pass about ten H6235 days H3117 [after], that the Lord H3068 smote H5062 (QalImpf) Nabal, H5037 that he died. H4191 (QalImpf)

και εγενετο ωσει δεκα ημεραι και επαταξεν κυριος τον ναβαλ και απεθανεν

When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Blessed is Yahweh, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept back his servant from evil. Yahweh has returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head.” David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to himself as wife.

And when David H1732 heard H8085 (QalImpf) that Nabal H5037 was dead, H4191 (QalPerf) he said, H559 (QalImpf) Blessed H1288 (QalPasPtc) [be] the Lord, H3068 that hath pleaded H7378 (QalPerf) the cause H7379 of my reproach H2781 from the hand H3027 of Nabal, H5037 and hath kept H2820 (QalPerf) his servant H5650 from evil: H7451 for the Lord H3068 hath returned H7725 (HiphPerf) the wickedness H7451 of Nabal H5037 upon his own head. H7218 And David H1732 sent H7971 (QalImpf) and communed H1696 (PielImpf) with Abigail, H26 to take H3947 (QalInf) her to him to wife. H802

και ηκουσεν δαυιδ και ειπεν ευλογητος κυριος ος εκρινεν την κρισιν του ονειδισμου μου εκ χειρος ναβαλ και τον δουλον αυτου περιεποιησατο εκ χειρος κακων και την κακιαν ναβαλ απεστρεψεν κυριος εις κεφαλην αυτου και απεστειλεν δαυιδ και ελαλησεν περι αβιγαιας λαβειν αυτην εαυτω εις γυναικα

David lived with Achish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household, even David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess and Abigail the Carmelitess, Nabal’s wife.

And David H1732 dwelt H3427 (QalImpf) with Achish H397 at Gath, H1661 he and his men, H582 every man H376 with his household, H1004 [even] David H1732 with his two H8147 wives, H802 Ahinoam H293 the Jezreelitess, H3159 and Abigail H26 the Carmelitess, H3762 Nabal’s H5037 wife. H802

και εκαθισεν δαυιδ μετα αγχους εν γεθ αυτος και οι ανδρες αυτου εκαστος και ο οικος αυτου και δαυιδ και αμφοτεραι αι γυναικες αυτου αχινααμ η ιεζραηλιτις και αβιγαια η γυνη ναβαλ του καρμηλιου

David’s two wives were taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.

And David’s H1732 two H8147 wives H802 were taken captives, H7617 (NiphPerf) Ahinoam H293 the Jezreelitess, H3159 and Abigail H26 the wife H802 of Nabal H5037 the Carmelite. H3761

και αμφοτεραι αι γυναικες δαυιδ ηχμαλωτευθησαν αχινοομ η ιεζραηλιτις και αβιγαια η γυνη ναβαλ του καρμηλιου

So David went up there with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.

So David H1732 went up H5927 (QalImpf) thither, and his two H8147 wives H802 also, Ahinoam H293 the Jezreelitess, H3159 and Abigail H26 Nabal’s H5037 wife H802 the Carmelite. H3761

και ανεβη εκει δαυιδ εις χεβρων και αμφοτεραι αι γυναικες αυτου αχινοομ η ιεζραηλιτις και αβιγαια η γυνη ναβαλ του καρμηλιου

και ο δευτερος αυτου δαλουια της αβιγαιας της καρμηλιας και ο τριτος αβεσσαλωμ υιος μααχα θυγατρος θολμι βασιλεως γεσιρ
