When Abigail returned to her home, she entered the dining hall to find Nabal knocked out drunk at a table filled with the feast that David and his men should have been eating. She walked past him and went to her bedchamber to weep the night away.

The next morning, she entered the dining hall to find Nabal awakening from his previous night’s stupor. His mouth and clothes were covered in his own vomit. He could not raise his fat body from the floor.

“Help me up, wench!” He spit out.

Abigail helped him up, gagging herself from the stench of his sweat and vomit. Maybe she should end it all. What else could she see in her future but more of this same misery, only worse? Her encounter with David mocked her heart with the manly leader she could not have.

She no longer cared what Nabal did to her. She said, “I met David and his men at the foot of the hill last night. He is not a rogue as you claim.”

Nabal grumbled, “Well he is no ‘chosen one’ as that dead seer called him.” Then Nabal grew suspicious. “What was he doing at the foot of the hill?”

“He was approaching our home with four hundred men to slaughter you and all the males of your household. But I bribed him with a guilt offering for your offense.”

Nabal’s eyes went wide with shock. “Four hundred men? He was going to kill us all?”

“Not us all. Just you and the men of the household.”

Nabal gasped. He stumbled and fell backward on a cushion. His left hand trembled from some physical malady. He could not speak. He could only gasp for air.

Abigail looked at him and thought he looked like he had turned to stone. In that instant, she knew that Yahweh was finally judging this evil man.

He didn’t die. He just became like stone, staring up at the sky, breathing shallowly. His servants placed him on his bed and prayed for a hasty death.
