2.在瑪雲有一個人，他的產業在迦密，是一個大富戶，有三千綿羊，一千山羊；他正在迦密剪羊毛。
A certain man in Maon, who had property there at Carmel, was very wealthy. He had a thousand goats and three thousand sheep, which he was shearing in Carmel.
3.那人名叫拿八，是迦勒族的人；他的妻名叫亞比該，是聰明俊美的婦人。拿八為人剛愎凶惡。
His name was Nabal and his wife’s name was Abigail. She was an intelligent and beautiful woman, but her husband was surly and mean in his dealings—he was a Calebite.
4.大衛在曠野聽見說拿八剪羊毛，
While David was in the wilderness, he heard that Nabal was shearing sheep.
5.大衛就打發十個僕人，吩咐他們說：「你們上迦密去見拿八，提我的名問他安。
So he sent ten young men and said to them, 「Go up to Nabal at Carmel and greet him in my name.
6.要對那富戶如此說：『願你平安，願你家平安，願你一切所有的都平安。
Say to him: 『Long life to you! Good health to you and your household! And good health to all that is yours!
7.現在我聽說有人為你剪羊毛，你的牧人在迦密的時候和我們在一處，我們沒有欺負他們，他們也未曾失落甚麼。
「『Now I hear that it is sheep-shearing time. When your shepherds were with us, we did not mistreat them, and the whole time they were at Carmel nothing of theirs was missing.
8.可以問你的僕人，他們必告訴你。所以願我的僕人在你眼前蒙恩，因為是在好日子來的。求你隨手取點賜與僕人和你兒子大衛。』」
Ask your own servants and they will tell you. Therefore be favorable toward my men, since we come at a festive time. Please give your servants and your son David whatever you can find for them.』」
9.大衛的僕人到了，將這話提大衛的名都告訴了拿八，就住了口。
When David’s men arrived, they gave Nabal this message in David’s name. Then they waited.
