2 Samuel 16:12 in Context — 2 Samuel 16
10 Mais le roi dit: Qu’ai-je affaire avec vous, fils de Tseruja? S’il maudit, c’est que l’Éternel lui a dit: Maudis David! Qui donc lui dira: Pourquoi agis-tu ainsi?
11 Et David dit à Abischaï et à tous ses serviteurs: Voici, mon fils, qui est sorti de mes entrailles, en veut à ma vie; à plus forte raison ce Benjamite! Laissez-le, et qu’il maudisse, car l’Éternel le lui a dit.
12 Peut-être l’Éternel regardera-t-il mon affliction, et me fera-t-il du bien en retour des malédictions d’aujourd’hui.
13 David et ses gens continuèrent leur chemin. Et Schimeï marchait sur le flanc de la montagne près de David, et, en marchant, il maudissait, il jetait des pierres contre lui, il faisait voler la poussière.
14 Le roi et tout le peuple qui était avec lui arrivèrent à Ajephim, et là ils se reposèrent.
