1 Samuel 25:29-33

Yet a man is risen to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: but the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, {as out} of the middle of a sling. {as out...: Heb. in the midst of the bought of a sling} And it shall come to pass, when the LORD shall have done to my lord according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel; That this shall be no grief unto thee, nor offence of heart unto my lord, either that thou hast shed blood causeless, or that my lord hath avenged himself: but when the LORD shall have dealt well with my lord, then remember thine handmaid. {no grief: Heb. no staggering, or, stumbling} And David said to Abigail, Blessed {be} the LORD God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me: And blessed {be} thy advice, and blessed {be} thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to {shed} blood, and from avenging myself with mine own hand.
