9 So when David’s young men came, they spoke to Nabal according to all these words in the name of David, and waited.
10 Then Nabal answered David’s servants, and said, (A)“Who is David, and who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants nowadays who break away each one from his master. 11 (B)Shall I then take my bread and my water and my [a]meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men when I do not know where they are from?”
