GRK

Και οτε ηκουσεν ο Δαβιδ οτι απεθανεν ο Ναβαλ, ειπεν, Ευλογητος Κυριος, οστις εκρινε την κρισιν μο περι του ονειδισμου μου του γενομενου παρα του Ναβαλ, και ημποδισε τον δουλον αυτου απο κακου· και την κακιαν του Ναβαλ εστρεψεν ο Κυριος κατα της κεφαλης αυτου. Και απεστειλεν ο Δαβιδ και ελαλησε προς την Αβιγαιαν, δια να λαβη αυτην γυναικα εις εαυτον.
