⁵ So he sent ten young men and said to them, ‘Go up to Nabal at Carmel and greet him in my name. ⁶ Say to him: “Long life to you! Good health to you and your household! And good health to all that is yours!

⁷ ‘“Now I hear that it is sheep-shearing time. When your shepherds were with us, we did not ill-treat them, and the whole time they were at Carmel nothing of theirs was missing.
