1 Samuel 25:23-25
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 As soon as Abigail saw David, she dismounted quickly from the donkey and, falling down, bowed low to the ground before David in homage.
24 As she fell at his feet she said: “My lord, let the blame be mine. Please let your maidservant speak to you; listen to the words of your maidservant.(A) 25 My lord, do not pay any attention to that scoundrel Nabal, for he is just like his name. His name means fool,[a] and he acts the fool. I, your maidservant, did not see the young men whom my lord sent.
