Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail; and the woman was of good understanding, and of a beautiful countenance: but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was of the house of Caleb.And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.And David sent ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name:and thus shall ye say to him that liveth in prosperity, Peace be unto thee, and peace be to thy house, and peace be unto all that thou hast.And now I have heard that thou hast shearers: thy shepherds have now been with us, and we did them no hurt, neither was there aught missing unto them, all the while they were in Carmel.Ask thy young men, and they will tell thee: wherefore let the young men find favor in thine eyes; for we come in a good day: give, I pray thee, whatsoever cometh to thy hand, unto thy servants, and to thy son David.

Then shall ye return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

In whose eyes a reprobate is despised, But who honoreth them that fear Jehovah; He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not;

Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, Neither desire thou his dainties:For as he thinketh within himself, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; But his heart is not with thee.The morsel which thou hast eaten shalt thou vomit up, And lose thy sweet words.

Let not my lord, I pray thee, regard this worthless fellow, even Nabal; for as his name is, so is he; Nabal is his name, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid saw not the young men of my lord, whom thou didst send.
