2Samuel:16:5-14
updv@2Samuel:16:5 @ And when King David came to Bahurim, look, there came out from there a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera; he came out, and cursed still as he came.
updv@2Samuel:16:6 @ And he cast stones at David, and at all the slaves of King David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
updv@2Samuel:16:7 @ And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Begone, begone, you man of blood, and base fellow:
updv@2Samuel:16:8 @ Yahweh has returned on you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead you have reigned; and Yahweh has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son; and, look, you are [taken] in your own mischief, because you are a man of blood.
updv@2Samuel:16:9 @ Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah to the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Let me go over, I pray you, and take off his head.
updv@2Samuel:16:10 @ And the king said, What have I to do with you(note:){+}(:note), you{+} sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because Yahweh has said to him, Curse David; who then will say, Why have you done so?
updv@2Samuel:16:11 @ And David said to Abishai, and to all his slaves, Look, my son, who came forth from my bowels, seeks my life: how much more [may] this Benjamite now [do it]? Let him alone, and let him curse; for Yahweh has bidden him.
updv@2Samuel:16:12 @ It may be that Yahweh will look at the wrong done to me, and that Yahweh will requite me good for [his] cursing of me this day.
updv@2Samuel:16:13 @ So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside across from him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust.
updv@2Samuel:16:14 @ And the king, and all the people who were with him, came weary; and he refreshed himself there.
