In context

37In the morning when Nabal was sober, his wife told him about these events, and his heart failed within him, and he became like a stone.

38About ten days later, the LORD struck Nabal dead.

39On hearing that Nabal was dead, David said, “Blessed be the LORD, who has upheld my cause against the reproach of Nabal and has restrained His servant from evil. For the LORD has brought the wickedness of Nabal down upon his own head.” Then David sent word to Abigail, asking her to become his wife.

40When his servants came to Abigail at Carmel, they said, “David has sent us to take you as his wife.”

41She arose, bowed facedown, and said, “Here is your servant, ready to serve and to wash the feet of my lord’s servants.”
