30. When the Lord does all the good he promised and makes you ruler of Israel,

32. David said to Abigail, “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who sent you today to meet me.
33. May your good judgment be blessed. Also, may you be blessed for keeping me from slaughtering people today and from getting a victory by my own efforts.
34. But I solemnly swear—as the Lord God of Israel, who has kept me from harming you, lives—if you hadn’t come to meet me quickly, Nabal certainly wouldn’t have had one of his men left at dawn.”
