Als David von Nabals Tod erfuhr, rief er: "Gelobt sei der Herr! Er hat mir zu meinem Recht
verholfen und Nabal für seine Beleidigungen bestraft. Mich hat er vor einem schweren Vergehen bewahrt, ihm dagegen hat er seine Bosheit heimgezahlt!"
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.
