Nabal

According to the 1st Book of Samuel Chapter 25, Nabal (Hebrew: נָבָל Nāḇāl, "fool"[1]) was a rich Calebite, described as harsh and surly.

[3] The account states that Nabal lived in the city of Maon, and owned much land in the town of Carmel, as well as many sheep and goats.

There are many servants these days that break away every man from his master; shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it unto men of whom I know not whence they are?

[15] The account ends with David hearing about the death, recognizing that it was a punishment from Yahweh, and asking for, and receiving, the hand of Abigail in marriage.

[2] Traditionally Nabal is euphemistically translated as fool, for which a Hebrew synonym is kesil (literally meaning fool); scholars regard it as possible that some features of the Nabal narrative derive from primitive mythology,[21] and it is notable that kesil particularly referred to the constellation of Orion, and was translated as Orion by the Septuagint.
