But Abishai shouted: You should be killed for cursing Jehovah's chosen king!

Do not curse God. Do not curse a ruler of your people.

But David said: Do not harm him! Jehovah will certainly punish whoever harms his chosen king.

He told his men: Stop talking foolishly. We are not going to attack Saul. He is my king. I pray that Jehovah will keep me from doing anything to harm his chosen king.

King David arrived at Bahurim. A man who was a distant cousin of Saul came out cursing. His name was Shimei, son of Gera.

Shimei cursed him and said: Get out! Get out you murderer!

David and his men continued along the road. Shimei kept up with them. He walked on the hillside. He cursed and threw stones and dirt at them as he went.

Get two good-for-nothing persons to come before him and give witness that he has been cursing God and the king. Then take him out and have him stoned to death.
