15 Yet these men were very good to us. They did not mistreat us, and the whole time we were out in the fields near them nothing was missing.
15 But the men were very good unto us, and we were not hurt,
15 Yet the men were very good to us, and we suffered no harm, and we did not miss anything when we were in the fields, as long as we went with them.
15 Yet these men treated us very well. They took nothing from us and didn't take advantage of us all the time we were in the fields.
15 But the men were very good to us, and we were not hurt, nor did we miss anything as long as we accompanied them, when we were in the fields.
15 These men have been very good to us, and we never suffered any harm from them. Nothing was stolen from us the whole time they were with us.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 1 Samuel 25:15
Commentary on 1 Samuel 25:12-17
(Read 1 Samuel 25:12-17)
God is kind to the evil and unthankful, and why may not we be so? David determined to destroy Nabal, and all that belonged to him. Is this thy voice, O David? Has he been so long in the school of affliction, where he should have learned patience, and yet is so passionate? He at other times was calm and considerate, but is put into such a heat by a few hard words, that he seeks to destroy a whole family. What are the best of men, when God leaves them to themselves, that they may know what is in their hearts? What need to pray, Lord, lead us not into temptation!
