2 Samuel - Chapter: 16


16:1	And when David was a little past the top of the hill, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him, with a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves of bread, and an hundred bunches of raisins, and an hundred of summer fruits, and a bottle of wine.
16:2	And the king said unto Ziba, What meanest thou by these? And Ziba said, The asses be for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as be faint in the wilderness may drink.
16:3	And the king said, And where is thy master's son? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he abideth at Jerusalem: for he said, To day shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.
16:4	Then said the king to Ziba, Behold, thine are all that pertained unto Mephibosheth. And Ziba said, I humbly beseech thee that I may find grace in thy sight, my lord, O king.
16:5	And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, thence came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera: he came forth, and cursed still as he came.
16:6	And he cast stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
16:7	And thus said Shimei when he cursed, Come out, come out, thou bloody man, and thou man of Belial:
16:8	The LORD hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned; and the LORD hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and, behold, thou art taken in thy mischief, because thou art a bloody man.
16:9	Then said Abishai the son of Zeruiah unto the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? let me go over, I pray thee, and take off his head.
16:10	And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, because the LORD hath said unto him, Curse David. Who shall then say, Wherefore hast thou done so?
16:11	And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, which came forth of my bowels, seeketh my life: how much more now may this Benjamite do it? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD hath bidden him.
16:12	It may be that the LORD will look on mine affliction, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing this day.
16:13	And as David and his men went by the way, Shimei went along on the hill's side over against him, and cursed as he went, and threw stones at him, and cast dust.
16:14	And the king, and all the people that were with him, came weary, and refreshed themselves there.
16:15	And Absalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.
16:16	And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, was come unto Absalom, that Hushai said unto Absalom, God save the king, God save the king.
16:17	And Absalom said to Hushai, Is this thy kindness to thy friend? why wentest thou not with thy friend?
16:18	And Hushai said unto Absalom, Nay; but whom the LORD, and this people, and all the men of Israel, choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide.
16:19	And again, whom should I serve? should I not serve in the presence of his son? as I have served in thy father's presence, so will I be in thy presence.
16:20	Then said Absalom to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do.
16:21	And Ahithophel said unto Absalom, Go in unto thy father's concubines, which he hath left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art abhorred of thy father: then shall the hands of all that are with thee be strong.
16:22	So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.
16:23	And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had enquired at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.


16:1	ודוד עבר מעט מהראשׁ והנה ציבא נער מפי בשׁת לקראתו וצמד חמרים חבשׁים ועליהם מאתים לחם ומאה צמוקים ומאה קיץ ונבל יין׃
16:2	ויאמר המלך אל ציבא מה אלה לך ויאמר ציבא החמורים לבית המלך לרכב ולהלחם והקיץ לאכול הנערים והיין לשׁתות היעף במדבר׃
16:3	ויאמר המלך ואיה בן אדניך ויאמר ציבא אל המלך הנה יושׁב בירושׁלם כי אמר היום ישׁיבו לי בית ישׂראל את ממלכות אבי׃
16:4	ויאמר המלך לצבא הנה לך כל אשׁר למפי בשׁת ויאמר ציבא השׁתחויתי אמצא חן בעיניך אדני המלך׃
16:5	ובא המלך דוד עד בחורים והנה משׁם אישׁ יוצא ממשׁפחת בית שׁאול ושׁמו שׁמעי בן גרא יצא יצוא ומקלל׃
16:6	ויסקל באבנים את דוד ואת כל עבדי המלך דוד וכל העם וכל הגברים מימינו ומשׂמאלו׃
16:7	וכה אמר שׁמעי בקללו צא צא אישׁ הדמים ואישׁ הבליעל׃
16:8	השׁיב עליך יהוה כל דמי בית שׁאול אשׁר מלכת תחתו ויתן יהוה את המלוכה ביד אבשׁלום בנך והנך ברעתך כי אישׁ דמים אתה׃
16:9	ויאמר אבישׁי בן צרויה אל המלך למה יקלל הכלב המת הזה את אדני המלך אעברה נא ואסירה את ראשׁו׃
16:10	ויאמר המלך מה לי ולכם בני צריה כי יקלל וכי יהוה אמר לו קלל את דוד ומי יאמר מדוע עשׂיתה כן׃
16:11	ויאמר דוד אל אבישׁי ואל כל עבדיו הנה בני אשׁר יצא ממעי מבקשׁ את נפשׁי ואף כי עתה בן הימיני הנחו לו ויקלל כי אמר לו יהוה׃
16:12	אולי יראה יהוה בעוני והשׁיב יהוה לי טובה תחת קללתו היום הזה׃
16:13	וילך דוד ואנשׁיו בדרך ושׁמעי הלך בצלע ההר לעמתו הלוך ויקלל ויסקל באבנים לעמתו ועפר בעפר׃
16:14	ויבא המלך וכל העם אשׁר אתו עיפים וינפשׁ שׁם׃
16:15	ואבשׁלום וכל העם אישׁ ישׂראל באו ירושׁלם ואחיתפל אתו׃
16:16	ויהי כאשׁר בא חושׁי הארכי רעה דוד אל אבשׁלום ויאמר חושׁי אל אבשׁלום יחי המלך יחי המלך׃
16:17	ויאמר אבשׁלום אל חושׁי זה חסדך את רעך למה לא הלכת את רעך׃
16:18	ויאמר חושׁי אל אבשׁלם לא כי אשׁר בחר יהוה והעם הזה וכל אישׁ ישׂראל לא אהיה ואתו אשׁב׃
16:19	והשׁנית למי אני אעבד הלוא לפני בנו כאשׁר עבדתי לפני אביך כן אהיה לפניך׃
16:20	ויאמר אבשׁלום אל אחיתפל הבו לכם עצה מה נעשׂה׃
16:21	ויאמר אחיתפל אל אבשׁלם בוא אל פלגשׁי אביך אשׁר הניח לשׁמור הבית ושׁמע כל ישׂראל כי נבאשׁת את אביך וחזקו ידי כל אשׁר אתך׃
16:22	ויטו לאבשׁלום האהל על הגג ויבא אבשׁלום אל פלגשׁי אביו לעיני כל ישׂראל׃
16:23	ועצת אחיתפל אשׁר יעץ בימים ההם כאשׁר ישׁאל בדבר האלהים כן כל עצת אחיתפל גם לדוד גם לאבשׁלם׃


16:1	And David hath passed on a little from the top, and lo, Ziba, servant of Mephibosheth -- to meet him, and a couple of asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves, and a hundred bunches of raisins, and a hundred `of' summer-fruit, and a bottle of wine.
16:2	And the king saith unto Ziba, `What -- these to thee?' and Ziba saith, `The asses for the household of the king to ride on, and the bread and the summer-fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine for the wearied to drink in the wilderness.'
16:3	And the king saith, `And where `is' the son of thy lord?' and Ziba saith unto the king, `Lo, he is abiding in Jerusalem, for he said, To-day do the house of Israel give back to me the kingdom of my father.'
16:4	And the king saith to Ziba, `Lo, thine `are' all that Mephibosheth hath;' and Ziba saith, `I have bowed myself -- I find grace in thine eyes, my lord, O king.'
16:5	And king David hath come in unto Bahurim, and lo, thence a man is coming out, of the family of the house of Saul, and his name `is' Shimei, son of Gera, he cometh out, coming out and reviling;
16:6	and he stoneth David with stones, and all the servants of king David, and all the people, and all the mighty men on his right and on his left.
16:7	And thus said Shimei in his reviling, `Go out, go out, O man of blood, and man of worthlessness!
16:8	Jehovah hath turned back on thee all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned, and Jehovah doth give the kingdom in to the hand of Absalom thy son; and lo, thou `art' in thine evil, for a man of blood thou `art'.'
16:9	And Abishai son of Zeruiah saith unto the king, `Why doth this dead dog revile my lord the king? let me pass over, I pray thee, and I turn aside his head.'
16:10	And the king saith, `What -- to me and to you, O sons of Zeruiah? for -- let him revile; even because Jehovah hath said to him, Revile David; and who saith, Wherefore hast Thou done so?'
16:11	And David saith unto Abishai, and unto all his servants, `Lo, my son who came out of my bowels is seeking my life, and also surely now the Benjamite; leave him alone, and let him revile, for Jehovah hath said `so' to him;
16:12	it may be Jehovah doth look on mine affliction, and Jehovah hath turned back to me good for his reviling this day.'
16:13	And David goeth with his men in the way, and Shimei is going at the side of the hill over-against him, going on, and he revileth, and stoneth with stones over-against him, and hath dusted with dust.
16:14	And the king cometh in, and all the people who `are' with him, wearied, and they are refreshed there.
16:15	And Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, have come in to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him,
16:16	and it cometh to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, hath come unto Absalom, that Hushai saith unto Absalom, `Let the king live! let the king live!'
16:17	And Absalom saith unto Hushai, `This thy kindness with thy friend! why hast thou not gone with thy friend?'
16:18	And Hushai saith unto Absalom, `Nay, for he whom Jehovah hath chosen, and this people, even all the men of Israel, his I am, and with him I abide;
16:19	and secondly, for whom do I labour? is it not before his son? as I served before thy father so am I before thee.'
16:20	And Absalom saith unto Ahithophel, `Give for you counsel what we do.'
16:21	And Ahithophel saith unto Absalom, `Go in unto the concubines of thy father, whom he left to keep the house, and all Israel hath heard that thou hast been abhorred by thy father, and the hands of all who `are' with thee have been strong.'
16:22	And they spread out for Absalom the tent on the roof, and Absalom goeth in unto the concubines of his father before the eyes of all Israel.
16:23	And the counsel of Ahithophel which he counselled in those days `is' as `when' one inquireth at the word of God; so `is' all the counsel of Ahithophel both to David and to Absalom.
