16 E Simei filho de Gera, filho de Benjamim, que era de Baurim, apressou-se a vir com os homens de Judá a receber ao rei Davi;

17 E com ele vinham mil homens de Benjamim; também Ziba criado da casa de Saul, com seus quinze filhos e seus vinte servos, os quais passaram o Jordão diante do rei.

18 Atravessou depois o barco para passar a família do rei, e para fazer o que lhe agradasse. Então Simei filho de Gera se prostrou diante do rei quando ele havia passado o Jordão.

19 E disse ao rei: Não me impute meu senhor iniquidade, nem tenhas memória dos males que teu servo fez o dia que meu senhor o rei saiu de Jerusalém, para guardá-los o rei em seu coração;
