2 Samuel 16:9 in Context — 2 Samuel 16
7 E dizia Simei, amaldiçoando-lhe: Sai, sai, homem sanguinário, e homem maligno!
8 O SENHOR te retribuiu por todo o sangue da casa de Saul, em lugar do qual tu reinaste: mas o SENHOR entregou o reino em mãos de teu filho Absalão; e eis que estás em tua desgraça, porque és homem sanguinário.
9 Então Abisai filho de Zeruia, disse ao rei: Por que almadiçoa este cão morto a meu senhor o rei? Eu te rogo que me deixes passar, e tirarei dele a cabeça.
10 E o rei respondeu: Que tenho eu convosco, filhos de Zeruia? Ele almadiçoa assim, porque o SENHOR lhe disse que almadiçoasse a Davi; quem pois lhe dirá: Por que o fazes assim?
11 E disse Davi a Abisai e a todos os seus servos: Eis que, meu filho que saiu de minhas entranhas, busca à minha vida: quanto mais agora um filho de Benjamim? Deixai-lhe que amaldiçoe, que o SENHOR se o disse.
