--Because Nabal refused to give food for the people, David and 400 men gird their sword to slay Nabal and his household.
Now one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, that David is planning to slay the household of Nabal and to slay Nabal.
Then Abigail made haste and took 200 loaves of bread, two skins of wine, 4 sheep already dressed, 5 seahs of roasted grain, 100 clusters of raisins and 200 cakes of figs. And she loaded them on the donkeys.

She told her servants to go on before her see that she's going to come after them, but she did not tell her husband Nabal.

--CONTINUE

Now when Abigail saw David, she dismounted quickly from the donkey, fell on her face before David, and bowed down on the ground. So she fell at his feet and said:
