1 Samuel 25:5-8 ▼

5 So David sent ten young men; and David said to the young men, “Go up to Carmel and visit Nabal, and greet him in my name;

6 and this is what you shall say: ‘Have a long life, peace to you, and peace to your house, and peace to all that you have!

7 Now then, I have heard that you have shearers. Now, your shepherds have been with us; we have not harmed them, nor has anything of theirs gone missing all the days they were in Carmel.

8 Ask your young men and they will tell you. Therefore let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we have come on a festive day. Please give whatever you find at hand to your servants and to your son David.’”
