And be sure to say,‘ Look, your servant Jacob is right behind us.’” Jacob thought,“ I will try to appease him by sending gifts ahead of me. When I see him in person, perhaps he will be friendly to me.”

暗中送的礼物挽回怒气，怀里的贿赂能止息暴怒。

他不接受任何赔偿，你送许多礼物，他也不肯和解。

当制造你们痔疮的像和毁坏田地老鼠的像，并要将荣耀归给以色列的神，或者他向你们和你们的神明，以及你们的田地，把手放轻些。

用温柔劝导反对的人。也许神会给他们悔改的心能明白真理，

谁知道神也许会回心转意，不发烈怒，使我们不致灭亡。”

暴怒的人挑启争端；忍怒的人止息纷争。

王的震怒是死亡的使者，但智慧人能平息王怒。

现在，你当知道，看怎样做才好。不然，祸患必定临到我主人和他全家。他性情凶暴，无人敢与他说话。”亚比该急忙将二百个饼，两皮袋酒，五只宰好的羊，五细亚烘熟的穗子，一百个葡萄干饼，二百个无花果饼，都驮在驴上，对仆人说：“你们在我前面走，看哪，我跟着你们去。”她却没有告诉丈夫拿八。亚比该骑着驴，正下山坡，看哪，大卫和他的人正迎着亚比该下来，她就去迎接他们。大卫曾说：“我在旷野为那人看守他一切所有的，以致他未失去任何一样东西，实在是徒然了！他竟然向我以恶报善。凡属拿八的男丁，我若留一个到明日早晨，愿神重重惩罚大卫！”亚比该看见大卫，就急忙下驴，在大卫面前脸伏于地叩拜。她俯伏在大卫的脚前，说：“我主啊，愿这罪归于我！求你容许使女向你进言，更求你听使女的话。我主不必理会拿八这性情凶暴的人，他就像他的名字一样；他名叫拿八，为人也真是愚顽。至于我，你的使女并没有看见我主所派来的仆人。现在，我主啊，耶和华既然阻止你亲手报仇，避免流人的血，我指着永生的耶和华起誓，又指着你的性命起誓：‘现在，愿你的仇敌和谋害我主的人都像拿八一样。’现在求我主把婢女送来的礼物给跟随我主的仆人。求你原谅使女的冒犯。耶和华必为我主建立坚固的家，因为我主为耶和华争战，并且你一生的日子查不出有什么恶来。虽有人起来追逼你，要寻索你的性命，我主的性命在耶和华—你的神那里，如同藏在生命的宝藏中。至于你仇敌的性命，耶和华必甩去，如用机弦甩石一样。耶和华照所应许你的福气赐给我主，立你作以色列王的时候，我主就不至于因为亲手报仇，流了无辜人的血，而心里不安，良心有亏了。耶和华赐福给我主的时候，求你记得你的使女。”大卫对亚比该说：“耶和华—以色列的神是应当称颂的，因为他今日派你来迎接我。你和你的见识也配得称赞，因为你今日拦阻我亲手报仇、流人的血。我指着阻止我加害于你的耶和华—以色列永生的神起誓，若不是你很快地来迎接我，到早晨天亮的时候，凡属拿八的男丁，必定一个也不留。”大卫从亚比该手中收了她带来的礼物，对她说：“平平安安上你的家去吧！你看，我看了你的情面，听了你的话。”
