1 Samuel 25:32-34
1599 Geneva Bible
32 Then David said to Abigail, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me.
33 And blessed be thy counsel, and blessed be thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to shed blood, [a]and that mine hand hath not saved me.
34 For indeed, as the Lord God of Israel liveth, [b]who hath kept me back from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and met me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the dawning of the day, any that pisseth against the wall.
