 * thy shepherds.
   In those times, and at the present day, wandering Arabs, under
   their several chiefs, think that they have a right to exact
   contributions of provisions, etc., wherever they come.  But
   David, though he lived in the wilderness like the Arab emirs,
   had not adopted their manners:  one of them, at the head of
   600; men, would have demanded, from time to time, some
   provision or present from Nabal's servants, for permitting
   them to feed at quiet; and would have driven them away from
   the watering place upon any dislike.  David had done nothing
   of this kind; but had protected them against those who would.

 * we hurt.  Heb. we shamed.
