1 Samuel 25:36-38
Evangelical Heritage Version
36 Abigail came to Nabal and saw that he was holding a feast[a] in his house, a feast fit for a king. Nabal was in good spirits, because he had drunk a lot. So she told him nothing at all until the morning light.
37 In the morning, when the wine had worn off for Nabal, his wife told him about these things, and his heart died within him, and he became like a stone.[b] 38 About ten days later, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.
