Verse 39

And when David{H1732} heard{H8085}{(H8799)} that Nabal{H5037} was dead{H4191}{(H8804)}, he said{H559}{(H8799)}, Blessed{H1288}{(H8803)} be the LORD{H3068}, that hath pleaded{H7378}{(H8804)} the cause{H7379} of my reproach{H2781} from the hand{H3027} of Nabal{H5037}, and hath kept{H2820}{(H8804)} his servant{H5650} from evil{H7451}: for the LORD{H3068} hath returned{H7725}{(H8689)} the wickedness{H7451} of Nabal{H5037} upon his own head{H7218}.
