1 Samuel 25:14-16

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁴ But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.

¹⁵ These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.

¹⁶ They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
