Lexham English Bible

⁴⁰ So the servants of David came to Abigail at Carmel, and they spoke to her, saying, “David has sent us to you to take you for his wife.” ⁴¹ She got up and bowed down with her face to the ground and said, “Here is your female servant, as a slave to wash the feet of my lord’s servants.” ⁴² Then Abigail quickly got up^[a] and rode on the donkey, along with five of her maidservants who attended her,^[b] and she went after the messengers of David and became his wife.
