David and his men lived in Gath with Achish; each one had his family, and David had his two wives, Ahinoam from Jezreel and Abigail, the widow of Nabal from Carmel.
David also brought up his men with their families, and they dwelt in the towns of Hebron.
The man’s name was Nabal and his wife was Abigail. The woman was intelligent and attractive, but Nabal, a Calebite, was harsh and bad-mannered.
When Saul learned that David had fled to Gath, he no longer searched for him.
David and his men arrived at the city to find it burned to the ground and their wives, sons, and daughters taken captive.
David’s two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail, the widow of Nabal from Carmel, had also been carried off.
