Suffer him to curse: for the Lord hath bidden him. 12 It may be that the Lorde will looke on mine affliction, and doe me good for his cursing this day. 13 And as Dauid and his men went by the way, Shimei went by the side of the mountaine ouer against him, and cursed as he went, & threw stones against him, and cast dust. 14 Then came the King and all the people that were with him wearie, and refreshed them selues there.
