And when David  heard   that Nabal  was dead , he said , Blessed   be the LORD, that hath pleaded   the cause  of my reproach  from the hand  of Nabal, and hath kept   his servant  from evil : for the LORD  hath returned   the wickedness  of Nabal  upon his own head. And David  sent   and communed   with Abigail, to take   her to him to wife.
