New Living Translation
2 Samuel 16:5-8
5As King David came to Bahurim, a man came out of the village cursing them. It was Shimei son of Gera, from the same clan as Saul’s family.
6He threw stones at the king and the king’s officers and all the mighty warriors who surrounded him.
7“Get out of here, you murderer, you scoundrel!” he shouted at David.
8“The Lord is paying you back for all the bloodshed in Saul’s clan. You stole his throne, and now the Lord has given it to your son Absalom. At last you will taste some of your own medicine, for you are a murderer!”
