1 Samuel 25:22thus doth God do to the enemies of David, and thus He doth add, if I leave of all that he hath till the light of the morning—of those sitting on the wall.’1 Samuel 25:23And Abigail seeth David, and hasteth and cometh down from off the ass, and falleth before David on her face, and boweth herself to the earth,1 Samuel 25:24and falleth at his feet and saith, ‘On me, my lord, the iniquity; and let, I pray thee, thy handmaid speak in thine ear, and hear the words of thy handmaid.1 Samuel 25:25Let not, I pray thee, my lord set his heart to this man of worthlessness, on Nabal, for as his name is so is he; Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; and I, thine handmaid, did not see the young men of my lord whom thou didst send;1 Samuel 25:26and now, my lord, Jehovah liveth, and thy soul liveth, in that Jehovah hath withheld thee from coming in with blood, and to save thy hand to thee—now let thine enemies be as Nabal, even those seeking evil unto my lord.1 Samuel 25:27‘And, now, this blessing which thy maid-servant hath brought to my lord—it hath been given to the young men who are going up and down at the feet of my lord.1 Samuel 25:28Bear, I pray thee, with the transgression of thy handmaid, for Jehovah doth certainly make to my lord a stedfast house; for the battles of Jehovah hath my lord fought, and evil is not found in thee all thy days.1 Samuel 25:29And man riseth to pursue thee and to seek thy soul, and the soul of my lord hath been bound in the bundle of life with Jehovah thy God; as to the soul of thine enemies, He doth sling them out in the midst of the hollow of the sling.1 Samuel 25:30‘And it hath been, when Jehovah doth to my lord according to all the good which He hath spoken concerning thee, and appointed thee for leader over Israel,1 Samuel 25:31that this is not to thee for a stumbling-block, and for an offence of heart to my lord—either to shed blood for nought, or my lord’s restraining himself; and Jehovah hath done good to my lord, and thou hast remembered thy handmaid.’1 Samuel 25:32And David saith to Abigail, ‘Blessed is Jehovah, God of Israel, who hath sent thee this day to meet me,1 Samuel 25:33and blessed is thy discretion, and blessed art thou in that thou hast restrained me this day from coming in with blood, and to restrain my hand to myself.1 Samuel 25:34And yet, Jehovah liveth, God of Israel, who hath kept me back from doing evil with thee, for unless thou hadst hasted, and dost come to meet me, surely there had not been left to Nabal till the light of the morning, of those sitting on the wall.’1 Samuel 25:35And David receiveth from her hand that which she hath brought to him, and to her he hath said, ‘Go up in peace to thy house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and accept thy face.’1 Samuel 25:36And Abigail cometh in unto Nabal, and lo, he hath a banquet in his house, like a banquet of the king, and the heart of Nabal is glad within him, and he is drunk unto excess, and she hath not declared to him anything, less or more, till the light of the morning.1 Samuel 25:37And it cometh to pass in the morning, when the wine is gone out from Nabal, that his wife declareth to him these things, and his heart dieth within him, and he hath been as a stone.1 Samuel 25:38And it cometh to pass, in about ten days, that Jehovah smiteth Nabal, and he dieth,1 Samuel 25:39and David heareth that Nabal is dead, and saith, ‘Blessed is Jehovah who hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and His servant hath kept back from evil, and the wickedness of Nabal hath Jehovah turned back on his own head;’ and David sendeth and speaketh with Abigail, to take her to him for a wife.1 Samuel 25:40And the servants of David come in unto Abigail at Carmel, and speak unto her, saying, ‘David hath sent us unto thee to take thee to him for a wife.’1 Samuel 25:41And she riseth and boweth herself—face to the earth—and saith, ‘Lo, thy handmaid is for a maid-servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.’1 Samuel 25:42And Abigail hasteth and riseth, and rideth on the ass; and five of her young women who are going at her feet; and she goeth after the messengers of David, and is to him for a wife.2 Samuel 11:2and it cometh to pass, at evening-time, that David riseth from off his couch, and walketh up and down on the roof of the king’s house, and seeth from the roof a woman bathing, and the woman is of very good appearance,2 Samuel 11:3and David sendeth and inquireth about the woman, and saith, ‘Is not this Bath-Sheba, daughter of Eliam, wife of Uriah the Hittite?’2 Samuel 11:4And David sendeth messengers, and taketh her, and she cometh unto him, and he lieth with her—and she is purifying herself from her uncleanness—and she turneth back unto her house;2 Samuel 11:5and the woman conceiveth, and sendeth, and declareth to David, and saith, ‘I am conceiving.’1 Kings 11:4And it cometh to pass, at the time of the old age of Solomon, his wives have turned aside his heart after other gods, and his heart hath not been perfect with Jehovah his God, like the heart of David his father.1 Kings 11:5And Solomon goeth after Ashtoreth goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites;1 Kings 11:6and Solomon doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and hath not been fully after Jehovah, like David his father.1 Kings 11:7Then doth Solomon build a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is on the front of Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the sons of Ammon;1 Kings 11:8and so he hath done for all his strange women, who are perfuming and sacrificing to their gods.2 Kings 9:30And Jehu cometh in to Jezreel, and Jezebel hath heard, and putteth her eyes in paint and maketh right her head, and looketh out through the window.2 Kings 9:31And Jehu hath come into the gate, and she saith, ‘Was there peace to Zimri—slayer of his lord?’2 Kings 9:32And he lifteth up his face unto the window, and saith, ‘Who is with me?—who?’ and look out unto him do two or three eunuchs;2 Kings 9:33And he saith, ‘Let her go;’ and they let her go, and some of her blood is sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses, and he treadeth her down.2 Kings 9:34And he cometh in, and eateth, and drinketh, and saith, ‘Look after, I pray you, this cursed one, and bury her, for she is a king’s daughter.’2 Kings 9:35And they go to bury her, and have not found of her except the skull, and the feet, and the palms of the hands.2 Kings 9:36And they turn back, and declare to him, and he saith, ‘The word of Jehovah it is, that He spake by the hand of this servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel do the dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel,2 Kings 9:37and the carcase of Jezebel hath been as dung on the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel, that they say not, This is Jezebel.’Nehemiah 13:26‘By these did not Solomon king of Israel sin? and among the many nations there was no king like him, and beloved by his God he was, and God maketh him king over all Israel—even him did the strange women cause to sin.Esther 1:10On the seventh day, as the heart of the king is glad with wine, he hath said to Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, and Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, the seven eunuchs who are ministering in the presence of the king Ahasuerus,Esther 1:11to bring in Vashti the queen before the king, with a royal crown, to shew the peoples and the heads her beauty, for she is of good appearance,Esther 1:12and the queen Vashti refuseth to come in at the word of the king that is by the hand of the eunuchs, and the king is very wroth, and his fury hath burned in him.Esther 1:13And the king saith to wise men, knowing the times—for so is the word of the king before all knowing law and judgment,Esther 1:14and he who is near unto him is Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, Memucan, seven heads of Persia and Media seeing the face of the king, who are sitting first in the kingdom—Esther 1:15‘According to law, what—to do with queen Vashti, because that she hath not done the saying of the king Ahasuerus by the hand of the eunuchs?’Esther 1:16And Memucan saith before the king and the heads, ‘Not against the king by himself hath Vashti the queen done perversely, but against all the heads, and against all the peoples that are in all provinces of the king Ahasuerus;Esther 1:17for go forth doth the word of the queen unto all the women, to render their husbands contemptible in their eyes, in their saying, The king Ahasuerus said to bring in Vashti the queen before him, and she did not come;Esther 1:18yea, this day do princesses of Persia and Media, who have heard the word of the queen, say so to all heads of the king, even according to the sufficiency of contempt and wrath.Esther 1:19If to the king it be good, there goeth forth a royal word from before him, and it is written with the laws of Persia and Media, and doth not pass away, that Vashti doth not come in before the king Ahasuerus, and her royalty doth the king give to her companion who is better than she;Esther 1:20and the sentence of the king that he maketh hath been heard in all his kingdom—for it is great—and all the wives give honour to their husbands, from great even unto small.’Esther 1:21And the thing is good in the eyes of the king, and of the princes, and the king doth according to the word of Memucan,Esther 1:22and sendeth letters unto all provinces of the king, unto province and province according to its writing, and unto people and people according to its tongue, for every man being head in his own house—and speaking according to the language of his people.Psalm 128:3Thy wife is as a fruitful vine in the sides of thy house, Thy sons as olive plants around thy table.Psalm 128:4Lo, surely thus is the man blessed who is fearing Jehovah.Proverbs 12:4A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband, And as rottenness in his bones is one causing shame.Proverbs 14:1Every wise woman hath builded her house, And the foolish with her hands breaketh it down.Proverbs 18:22Whoso hath found a wife hath found good, And bringeth out good-will from Jehovah.Proverbs 19:13A calamity to his father is a foolish son, And the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.Proverbs 19:14House and wealth are the inheritance of fathers, And from Jehovah is an understanding wife.Proverbs 21:9Better to sit on a corner of the roof, Than with a woman of contentions and a house of company.
