New Century Version
Nabal Insults David
25 Now Samuel died, and all the Israelites met and had a time of sadness for him. Then they buried him at his home in Ramah.
David moved to the Desert of Maon.[a] 2 A man in Maon who had land at Carmel was very rich. He had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats. He was cutting the wool off his sheep at Carmel. 3 His name was Nabal, and he was a descendant of Caleb. His wife was named Abigail. She was wise and beautiful, but Nabal was cruel and mean.
