Nabal menjawab hamba-hamba Daud itu, katanya, “Siapakah Daud? Siapakah anak Isai itu? Zaman sekarang banyak hamba yang melepaskan diri dari tuannya masing-masing.

The sixth question is about that which she said (Genesis 21:7), "Who declared to Avraham." And that is because this statement comes out of its place; and also because she should not have wondered who declared [it] to Avraham - since the Holy One, blessed be He, as well as the angel, declared this to Avraham. And Rashi wrote (Rashi on Genesis 21:7) that, "Who declared," is as a praise, hinting to the Holy One, blessed be He. But the Ramban objected to this, since he only found the word, "who," as disparagement: "Who is Avimelekh and who is Shekhem" (Judges 9:28); "who is David and who is the son of Jesse" (I Samuel 25:10). But I wondered about his words, as it appears that he forgot, "Raise your eyes and see Who created these" (Isaiah 40:26); "Who bore these for me [...] and who has brought these up" (Isaiah 49:21); "Who is the One coming from Edom" (Isaiah 63:1); "Who is she that shines through like the dawn" (Song of Songs 6:10), and many like these.

how long will my honor be disgraced How long will you disgrace me? (I Sam. 20:30): “that you choose the son of Jesse”; (ibid. 22:8), “when my son made a covenant with the son of Jesse”; (ibid. verse 9), “I saw the son of Jesse”; (ibid. 25:10), “Who is David, and who is the son of Jesse?” I have no name.
Ramban
‘MI’ (WHO) WOULD HAVE SAID UNTO ABRAHAM. The word mi is used as an exclamation of praise and distinction. The sense of the verse is thus: “See Whom it is and to what extent He keeps His promise. He promises and performs!” Thus the language of Rashi.
But we do not find the word mi used in this way in expressions of distinction and honor. Instead, we find it used only in a derogatory sense: ‘Mi’ (Who is) Abimelech, and ‘mi’ (who is) Shechem?319Judges 9:28. ‘Mi’ (Who is) the son of Jesse?320I Samuel 25:10.
The correct interpretation appears to me to be that Sarah said, “G-d hath made laughter for me; and every one that heareth will laugh on account of me,321Verse 6 here. filling his mouth with song and laughter for the wonder that has been done to me, for who among the hearers would have previously said to Abraham that Sarah will suckle children? There is not a person in the world who would have told him this, even merely to console him, for the possibility would never have occurred to anyone.” Onkelos’ rendition is close to this interpretation: “How faithful is He who spoke to Abraham! He has fulfilled His word that Sarah will suckle children.” That is to say, “Everyone that heareth will laugh on account of me” for there is no person who would have maintained his credulity even in the eyes of Abraham if he were to have told him this wonder.

Rashi
and Celubai This is Caleb as is indicated below (v. 18): “And Caleb the son of Hezron,” and in I Sam. (25:3), it says: “... and he was a Calebite,” (כָלְבִּי), which the Targum renders: “of the house of Caleb,” and so he explains the word: כָלְבִּי, that he (Nabal) held himself [superior] and boasted that there was no one of such high lineage as he in the entire tribe; i.e, if Samuel gave him (David) the throne, the throne will come to me. Therefore, he said, (ibid. v. 10): “Who is David, and who is the son of Jesse? Nowadays, there are many slaves,” for he is descended from Ruth the Moabitess, and Jerahmeel his brother married a gentile woman, as is written below, and that is the meaning of “Celubai,” he was haughty and proud (with everythng); his heart exalted him.
