2 Samuel 16:10-12
10But the kingH4428 saidH559, “12WhatH4100 business of mine is yours, you sonsH1121 of ZeruiahH6870? 3IfH3588 he cursesH7043, and ifH3588 the LordH3068 has toldH559 him, ‘CurseH7043 DavidH1732,’ 4then whoH4310 should sayH559, ‘WhyH4069 have you doneH6213 soH3651?’”
11Then DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbishaiH52 and to allH3605 his servantsH5650, “BeholdH2009, 5my sonH1121 whoH834 cameH3318 outH3318 of my own body seeksH1245 my lifeH5315; howH637 muchH637H3588 moreH637H3588 nowH6258 this BenjaminiteH1145? LeaveH5117 him aloneH5117 and let him curseH7043, 6for the LordH3068 has toldH559 him.
12PerhapsH194 the LordH3068 will lookH7200 on my 7miseryH6040 and 89returnH7725 goodH2899 to me insteadH8478 ofH8478 his cursingH7045 thisH2088 dayH3117.”
