Otherwise, as surely as the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, who has restrained me from harming you, if you had not come quickly to meet me, then surely no male belonging to Nabal would have been left alive by morning light.”

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

For indeed, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, lives, who has withheld me from hurting you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn’t have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”

World English Bible (WEB)

For in very deed{H199}, as the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478} liveth{H2416}, which hath kept me back{H4513}{(H8804)} from hurting{H7489}{(H8687)} thee, except{H3884} thou hadst hasted{H4116}{(H8765)} and come{H935}{(H8799)} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} me, surely there had not been left{H3498}{(H8738)} unto Nabal{H5037} by the morning{H1242} light{H216} any that pisseth{H8366}{(H8688)} against the wall{H7023}.
