1 Samuel 25:21-23
New Catholic Bible
21 David had been saying, “Surely it was in vain that I watched over all of his things in the wilderness so that nothing that he owned went missing. He has paid me back evil for good. 22 May God do this to David, and even more, if by morning I have left alive even one male who belongs to him.”
23 When Abigail saw David, she quickly got off the donkey, and she fell down before David, bowing her face to the ground.
