2 Samuel 16:11-13

International Children’s Bible

¹¹ David also said to Abishai and all his officers, “My own son is trying to kill me! This man is a Benjaminite and has more right to kill me! Leave him alone. Let him curse me. The Lord told him to do this. ¹² Maybe the Lord will see my misery. Then maybe he will repay me with something good for the curses Shimei says today!”

¹³ So David and his men went on down the road. But Shimei kept following David. Shimei walked on the hillside on the other side of the road. He kept cursing David and throwing stones and dirt at him.
