And now I have heard that thou hast shearers: now thy shepherds which were with us, we hurt them not, neither was there ought missing unto them, all the while they were in Carmel.

Verse 7 is found in chapter 25 of 1 Samuel. Samuel’s death marks an important transition in the story and leaves Israel without its main prophetic figure from the previous period. The narrative then introduces Nabal, a wealthy man whose name and behavior are presented in contrast. David, protecting flocks in the wilderness, requests provisions after having treated Nabal’s shepherds well. Nabal’s refusal and insulting words provoke David’s anger. The episode presents a new test of his character, different from Saul’s persecution.

Ich habe gehört, daß du Schafscherer hast. Nun, deine Hirten, die du hast, sind mit uns gewesen; wir haben sie nicht verhöhnt, und hat ihnen nichts gefehlt an der Zahl, solange sie zu Karmel gewesen sind
Ha poco supe que tienes esquiladores. Ahora, a los pastores tuyos que han estado con nosotros, nunca les hicimos fuerza, ni les faltó algo en todo el tiempo que han estado en el Carmelo.
He oído que estás esquilando. Tus pastores han estado con nosotros; no los hemos maltratado ni les ha faltado nada durante todo el tiempo que estuvieron en Carmel.
Et maintenant, j'ai appris que tu as les tondeurs. Or tes bergers ont été avec nous; nous ne leur avons fait aucun outrage, et rien ne leur a été enlevé pendant tout le temps qu'ils ont été à Carmel.
Ora io ho inteso che tu hai i tonditori; or i tuoi pastori sono stati con noi, e noi non abbiamo fatto loro alcuno oltraggio, e non si è trovato mancar loro nulla, tutto il tempo che sono stati in Carmel.
Agora, pois, tenho ouvido que tens tosquiadores. Ora, os pastores que tens estiveram conosco; agravo nenhum lhes fizemos, nem coisa alguma lhes faltou todos os dias que estiveram no Carmelo.
現在我聽說你有剪羊毛的人,你的牧人和我們在一起,他們在 迦密 一切的日子,我們沒有欺負過他們,他們也未曾失去甚麼。
