2 Samuel 16:5-14

And when king
<04428>
David
<01732>
came
<0935> (8804)
to Bahurim
<0980>_,
behold, thence came out
<03318> (8802)
a man
<0376>
of the family
<04940>
of the house
<01004>
of Saul
<07586>_,
whose name
<08034>
[was] Shimei
<08096>_,
the son
<01121>
of Gera
<01617>_:
he came forth
<03318> (8802)_,
and cursed
<07043> (8764)
still as he came
<03318> (8800)_.
{he came forth...: or, he still came forth and cursed}
And he cast
<05619> (8762)
stones
<068>
at David
<01732>_,
and at all the servants
<05650>
of king
<04428>
David
<01732>_:
and all the people
<05971>
and all the mighty men
<01368>
[were] on his right hand
<03225>
and on his left
<08040>_.
And thus said
<0559> (8804)
Shimei
<08096>
when he cursed
<07043> (8763)_,
Come out
<03318> (8798)_,
come out
<03318> (8798)_,
thou bloody
<01818>
man
<0376>_,
and thou man
<0376>
of Belial
<01100>_:
{bloody...: Heb. man of blood}
The LORD
<03068>
hath returned
<07725> (8689)
upon thee all the blood
<01818>
of the house
<01004>
of Saul
<07586>_,
in whose stead thou hast reigned
<04427> (8804)_;
and the LORD
<03068>
hath delivered
<05414> (8799)
the kingdom
<04410>
into the hand
<03027>
of Absalom
<053>
thy son
<01121>_:
and, behold, thou [art taken] in thy mischief
<07451>_,
because thou [art] a bloody
<01818>
man
<0376>_.
{behold...: Heb. behold thee in thy evil}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Abishai
<052>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>
unto the king
<04428>_,
Why should this dead
<04191> (8801)
dog
<03611>
curse
<07043> (8762)
my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_?
let me go over
<05674> (8799)_,
I pray thee, and take off
<05493> (8686)
his head
<07218>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
What have I to do with you, ye sons
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>_?
so let him curse
<07043> (8762)_,
because the LORD
<03068>
hath said
<0559> (8804)
unto him, Curse
<07043> (8761)
David
<01732>_.
Who shall then say
<0559> (8799)_,
Wherefore hast thou done so
<06213> (8804)_?
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Abishai
<052>_,
and to all his servants
<05650>_,
Behold, my son
<01121>_,
which came forth
<03318> (8804)
of my bowels
<04578>_,
seeketh
<01245> (8764)
my life
<05315>_:
how much more now [may this] Benjamite
<01145>
[do it]? let him alone
<03240> (8685)_,
and let him curse
<07043> (8762)_;
for the LORD
<03068>
hath bidden
<0559> (8804)
him.
It may be that the LORD
<03068>
will look
<07200> (8799)
on mine affliction
<05869> (8675) <06040>_,
and that the LORD
<03068>
will requite
<07725> (8689)
me good
<02896>
for his cursing
<07045>
this day
<03117>_.
{affliction: or, tears: Heb. eye}
And as David
<01732>
and his men
<0582>
went
<03212> (8799)
by the way
<01870>_,
Shimei
<08096>
went along
<01980> (8802)
on the hill's
<02022>
side
<06763>
over against
<05980>
him, and cursed
<07043> (8762)
as he went
<01980> (8800)_,
and threw
<05619> (8762)
stones
<068>
at
<05980>
him, and cast
<06080> (8765)
dust
<06083>_.
{cast...: Heb. dusted him with dust}
And the king
<04428>_,
and all the people
<05971>
that [were] with him, came
<0935> (8799)
weary
<05889>_,
and refreshed
<05314> (8735)
themselves there.
