2 Samuel 16:10-12
10But the king said, “1What have I to do with you, O sons of Zeruiah? 2If he curses, and if the Lord has told him, ‘Curse David,’ 3then who shall say, ‘Why have you done so?’”
11Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, 4my son who came out from 5me seeks my life; how much more now this Benjamite? Let him alone and let him curse, 6for the Lord has told him.
12Perhaps the Lord will look on my affliction and 78return good to me instead of his cursing this day.”
