And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her to him to wife.»
«And when Abigail saw David, she hasted, and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, / And fell at his feet, and said, Upon me, my lord, upon me let this iniquity be: and let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine audience, and hear the words of thine handmaid.»

«And unto David were sons born in Hebron: and his firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess; / And his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur; / And the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital; / And the sixth, Ithream, by Eglah David's wife. These were born to David in Hebron.»
