Abigail - wisdom vs strength
It is often said that wisdom is better than strength, no where is this better illustrated than with Abigail. She calmed David's anger with her wisdom and thus speared him from shedding blood and secured for herself a seat in the palace.

Beloved wisdom is the principal thing, get wisdom. And the good news is the Scriptures is able to make you wise, so dwell on it.
His name was Nabal and his wife's name was Abigail. She was an intelligent and beautiful woman, but her husband was surly and mean in his dealings—he was a Calebite.
David said to Abigail, "Praise be to the LORD, the God of Israel, who has sent you today to meet me. May you be blessed for your good judgment and for keeping me from bloodshed this day and from avenging myself with my own hands.
Get wisdom; develop good judgment. Don't forget my words or turn away from them. Don't turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you. Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment.
