And David H1732 said H559 to Abigail, H26 Blessed H1288 be the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 which H834 sent H7971 you this H2088 day H3117 to meet H7125 me:

Praise H1288 you the LORD H3068 for the avenging H6544 H6546 of Israel, H3478 when the people H5971 willingly H5068 offered themselves.

The LORD H3068 lives; H2416 and blessed H1288 be my rock; H6697 and exalted H7311 be the God H430 of the rock H6697 of my salvation. H3468

And that brings H3318 me forth H4161 from my enemies: H341 you also have lifted H7311 me up on high H7311 above them that rose H6965 up against me: you have delivered H5337 me from the violent H2555 man. H376

The righteous H6662 shall rejoice H8055 when H3588 he sees H2372 the vengeance: H5359 he shall wash H7364 his feet H6471 in the blood H1818 of the wicked. H7563

So that a man H120 shall say, H559 Truly H389 there is a reward H6529 for the righteous: H6662 truly H389 he is a God H430 that judges H8199 in the earth. H776

And after G3326 these G5023 things I heard G191 a great G3173 voice G5456 of much G4183 people G3793 in heaven, G3321 saying, G3004 Alleluia; G239 Salvation, G4991 and glory, G1391 and honor, G5092 and power, G1411 to the Lord G2962 our God: G2316

And again G1208 they said, G2046 Alleluia G239 And her smoke G2586 rose G305 up for ever G165 and ever. G165

For the LORD H3068 will plead H7378 their cause, H7379 and spoil H6906 the soul H5315 of those that spoiled H6906 them.

O LORD, H136 you have pleaded H7378 the causes H7379 of my soul; H5315 you have redeemed H1350 my life.

You have seen H7200 all H3605 their vengeance H5360 and all H3605 their imaginations H4284 against me.

I will bear H5375 the indignation H2197 of the LORD, H3068 because H3588 I have sinned H2398 against him, until H5704 he plead H7378 my cause, H7379 and execute H6213 judgment H4941 for me: he will bring H3318 me forth H3318 to the light, H216 and I shall behold H7200 his righteousness. H6666

Now H6258 therefore, my lord, H113 as the LORD H3068 lives, H2416 and as your soul H5315 lives, H2416 seeing the LORD H3068 has withheld H4513 you from coming H935 to shed blood, H1818 and from avenging H3467 yourself with your own hand, H3027 now H6258 let your enemies, H341 and they that seek H1245 evil H7451 to my lord, H113 be as Nabal. H5037

For in very H199 deed, H199 as the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 lives, H2416 which H834 has kept H4513 me back H4513 from hurting H7489 you, except H3588 H3884 you had hurried H4116 and come H935 to meet H7125 me, surely H3588 H518 there had not been left H3498 to Nabal H5037 by the morning H1242 light H216 any that urinates H8366 against the wall. H7023

Therefore, H3651 behold, H2005 I will hedge H7753 up your way H1870 with thorns, H5518 and make H1443 a wall, H1447 that she shall not find H4672 her paths. H5410

And she shall follow H7291 after her lovers, H157 but she shall not overtake H5381 them; and she shall seek H1245 them, but shall not find H4672 them: then shall she say, H559 I will go H3212 and return H7725 to my first H7223 husband; H376 for then H227 was it better H2896 with me than now. H6258

Now G1161 I pray G2172 to God G2316 that you do G4160 no G3361 G3367 evil; G2556 not that we should appear G5316 approved, G1384 but that you should do G4160 that which is honest, G2570 though we be as reprobates. G96

And the very G846 God G2316 of peace G1515 sanctify G37 you wholly; G3651 and I pray God your G3588 whole G3648 spirit G4151 and soul G5590 and body G4983 be preserved G5083 blameless G274 to the coming G3952 of our Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ. G5547

And the Lord G2962 shall deliver G4506 me from every G3956 evil G4190 work, G2041 and will preserve G4982 me to his heavenly G2032 kingdom: G932 to whom G3739 be glory G1391 for ever G165 and ever. G165 Amen. G281

And afterward H310 H3651 when David H1732 heard H8085 it, he said, H559 I and my kingdom H4467 are guiltless H5355 before H5973 the LORD H3068 for ever H5769 from the blood H1818 of Abner H74 the son H1121 of Ner: H5369

Let it rest H2342 on H5921 the head H7218 of Joab, H3097 and on H413 all H3605 his father's H1 house; H1004 and let there not fail H3772 from the house H1004 of Joab H3097 one that has an issue, H2100 or that is a leper, H6879 or that leans H2388 on a staff, H6418 or that falls H5307 on the sword, H2719 or that lacks H2638 bread. H3899

The king H4428 said H559 moreover to Shimei, H8096 You know H3045 all H3605 the wickedness H7451 which H834 your heart H3824 is privy H3045 to, that you did H6213 to David H1732 my father: H1 therefore the LORD H3068 shall return H7725 your wickedness H7451 on your own head; H7218

So they hanged H8518 Haman H2001 on H5921 the gallows H6086 that he had prepared H3559 for Mordecai. H4782 Then was the king's H4428 wrath H2534 pacified. H7918

His mischief H5999 shall return H7725 on his own head, H7218 and his violent H2555 dealing shall come H3381 down H3381 on his own pate. H6936

Whoever finds H4672 a wife H802 finds H4672 a good H2896 thing, and obtains H6329 favor H7522 of the LORD. H3068

House H1004 and riches H1952 are the inheritance H5159 of fathers: H1 and a prudent H7919 wife H802 is from the LORD. H3068

Who H4310 can find H4672 a virtuous H2428 woman? H802 for her price H4377 is far H7350 above rubies. H6443

Favor H2580 is deceitful, H8267 and beauty H3308 is vain: H1892 but a woman H802 that fears H3373 the LORD, H3068 she shall be praised. H1984
