Context
19Kisha akawaambia watumishi wake, “Tangulieni; mimi nitakuja nyuma yenu.” Lakini hakumwambia Nabali mumewe. 20Ikawa alipokuwa amepanda punda wake kwenye bonde la mlima, tazama, Daudi na watu wake wakawa wanateremka kumwelekea, naye akakutana nao. 21Daudi alikuwa amesema, “Ilikuwa ni kazi bure kuchunga kwangu kote mali za huyu mtu huko jangwani hivi kwamba hakuna chochote chake kilichopotea. Yeye amenilipa baya kwa ajili ya wema. 22Bwana na amshughulikie Daudi, tena kwa ukali, ikiwa kesho asubuhi nitambakizia mwanaume hata mmoja aliye hai miongoni mwa watu wake wote!” 23Abigaili alipomwona Daudi, akashuka haraka kwenye punda wake, akainama kifudifudi uso wake mpaka nchi mbele ya Daudi.
