About ten days later, the LORD struck Nabal dead. Context 38About ten days later, the LORD struck Nabal and he died. David Marries Abigail 39When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Blessed be the LORD, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal and has kept back His servant from evil. The LORD has also returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head.” Then David sent a proposal to Abigail, to take her as his wife. 40When the servants of David came to Abigail at Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, “David has sent us to you to take you as his wife.” 41She arose and bowed with her face to the ground and said, “Behold, your maidservant is a maid to wash the feet of my lord’s servants.” 42Then Abigail quickly arose, and rode on a donkey, with her five maidens who attended her; and she followed the messengers of David and became his wife. 43David had also taken Ahinoam of Jezreel, and they both became his wives. 44Now Saul had given Michal his daughter, David’s wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was from Gallim.
