His name was Nabal and his wife’s name was Abigail. She was an intelligent and beautiful woman, but her husband was surly and mean in his dealings— he was a Calebite.While David was in the wilderness, he heard that Nabal was shearing sheep.So he sent ten young men and said to them,“ Go up to Nabal at Carmel and greet him in my name.Say to him:‘ Long life to you! Good health to you and your household! And good health to all that is yours!“‘ Now I hear that it is sheep- shearing time. When your shepherds were with us, we did not mistreat them, and the whole time they were at Carmel nothing of theirs was missing.Ask your own servants and they will tell you. Therefore be favorable toward my men, since we come at a festive time. Please give your servants and your son David whatever you can find for them.’” (niv)

Please pay no attention, my lord, to that wicked man Nabal. He is just like his name— his name means Fool, and folly goes with him. And as for me, your servant, I did not see the men my lord sent. (niv)
