2Samuel:16:5-14




vw@2Samuel:16:5 @ And when King David came to Bahurim, there was a man from the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei the son of Gera, coming from there. He came out, cursing continuously as he came.

vw@2Samuel:16:6 @ And he pelted David and all the servants of King David with stones. And all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.

vw@2Samuel:16:7 @ Also Shimei said thus when he cursed: Get out! Get out, you man of blood, you worthless man!

vw@2Samuel:16:8 @ Jehovah has returned upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned; and Jehovah has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son. So now you are caught in your own evil, because you are a man of blood!

vw@2Samuel:16:9 @ Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please, let me go over and take off his head!

vw@2Samuel:16:10 @ But the king said, What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? So let him curse, because Jehovah has said to him, Curse David. Who then shall say, Why have you done so?

vw@2Samuel:16:11 @ And David said to Abishai and all his servants, See how my son who came from my own body seeks my life; so, why not this Benjamite? Let him alone, and let him curse; for thus Jehovah has commanded him.

vw@2Samuel:16:12 @ It may be that Jehovah will look on my affliction, and that Jehovah will repay me with good for his cursing this day.

vw@2Samuel:16:13 @ And as David and his men went along the way, Shimei went along the hillside across from him and cursed as he went, pelted him with stones and kicked up dust.

vw@2Samuel:16:14 @ And the king and all the people with him became weary; so they refreshed themselves there.
