2 Samuel 16:5-8 ▼

5 When King David came to Bahurim, a man named Shimei, the son of Gera, came out from there. He was of the family of Saul’s household and he was cursing continually as he came out.

6 He threw stones at David and at all the servants of King David; yet all the people and all the warriors remained on his right and on his left.

7 This is what Shimei said as he cursed: “Get out, get out, you man of bloodshed, you worthless and useless man!

8 The LORD has returned upon you all the bloodshed of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned; and the LORD has given the kingdom into the hands of Absalom your son. And behold, you are caught in your own evil, for you are a man of bloodshed!”
