কাৰণ সঁচাকৈয়ে, ইস্ৰায়েলৰ ঈশ্বৰ যিহোৱাৰ জীৱনৰ শপত, তেওঁ তোমাক আঘাত কৰিবলৈ মোক বাধা কৰিলে, তুমি মোক ল’গ কৰিবলৈ শীঘ্ৰে নহা হ’লে, নিশ্চয়ে নাবলৰ সম্পৰ্কীয়সকলৰ মাজৰ সৰু ল’ৰা এজনো ৰাতি পুৱালৈ অৱশিষ্ট নাথাকিলেহেঁতেন।”

What Does This Mean?

In this verse, David is talking to Abigail. He is saying that if Abigail hadn't come to him quickly to apologize for her husband Nabal, David would have killed all of Nabal's men. This shows how close Nabal and his men were to death because of Nabal's foolish actions.

Explained for Children

Imagine you're playing a game and you almost lose because your friend didn't follow the rules. But then your friend's sister comes and helps you win instead. That's kind of what happened here, but much more serious. David was ready to punish Nabal for being rude, but Nabal's wife Abigail came and stopped him from doing something very bad.
