1 Samuel 25:9

David, Nabal, and Abigail

8Ask your young men, and they will tell you. So let my young men find favor with you, for we have come on the day of a feast. Please give whatever you can afford to your servants and to your son David.’”9When David’s young men arrived, they relayed all these words to Nabal on behalf of David. Then they waited.
