When King David came to Bahurim, behold, a man was coming out from there from the family of the house of Saul, and his name was Shimei, the son of Gera; he was coming out, cursing as he came.

He also threw stones at David and all the servants of King David; and all the people and all the warriors were on his right and on his left.

This is what Shimei said when he cursed: “Go away, go away, you man of bloodshed and worthless man!

The Lord has brought back upon you all the bloodshed of the house of Saul, in whose place you have become king; and the Lord has handed the kingdom over to your son Absalom. And behold, you are caught in your own evil, for you are a man of bloodshed!”

Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Now let me go over and cut off his head.”

But the king said, “What business of mine is yours, you sons of Zeruiah? If he curses, and if the Lord has told him, ‘Curse David,’ then who should say, ‘Why have you done so?’”

Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my son who came out of my own body seeks my life; how much more now this Benjaminite? Leave him alone and let him curse, for the Lord has told him.

Perhaps the Lord will look on my misery and return good to me instead of his cursing this day.”

다윗 왕이 바후림에 이르매 거기서 사울의 친족 한 사람이 나오니 게라의 아들이요 이름은 시므이라 그가 나오면서 계속하여 저주하고

When King David came to Bahurim, behold, a man was coming out from there from the family of the house of Saul, and his name was Shimei, the son of Gera; he was coming out, cursing as he came.

또 다윗과 다윗 왕의 모든 신하들을 향하여 돌을 던지니 그 때에 모든 백성과 용사들은 다 왕의 좌우에 있었더라

He also threw stones at David and all the servants of King David; and all the people and all the warriors were on his right and on his left.

시므이가 저주하는 가운데 이와 같이 말하니라 피를 흘린 자여 사악한 자여 가거라 가거라

This is what Shimei said when he cursed: “Go away, go away, you man of bloodshed and worthless man!

사울의 족속의 모든 피를 여호와께서 네게로 돌리셨도다 그를 이어서 네가 왕이 되었으나 여호와께서 나라를 네 아들 압살롬의 손에 넘기셨도다 보라 너는 피를 흘린 자이므로 화를 자초하였느니라 하는지라

The Lord has brought back upon you all the bloodshed of the house of Saul, in whose place you have become king; and the Lord has handed the kingdom over to your son Absalom. And behold, you are caught in your own evil, for you are a man of bloodshed!”

스루야의 아들 아비새가 왕께 여짜오되 이 죽은 개가 어찌 내 주 왕을 저주하리이까 청하건대 내가 건너가서 그의 머리를 베게 하소서 하니

Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Now let me go over and cut off his head.”

왕이 이르되 스루야의 아들들아 내가 너희와 무슨 상관이 있느냐 그가 저주하는 것은 여호와께서 그에게 다윗을 저주하라 하심이니 네가 어찌 그리하였느냐 할 자가 누구겠느냐 하고

But the king said, “What business of mine is yours, you sons of Zeruiah? If he curses, and if the Lord has told him, ‘Curse David,’ then who should say, ‘Why have you done so?’”

또 다윗이 아비새와 모든 신하들에게 이르되 내 몸에서 난 아들도 내 생명을 해하려 하거든 하물며 이 베냐민 사람이랴 여호와께서 그에게 명령하신 것이니 그가 저주하게 버려두라

Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my son who came out of my own body seeks my life; how much more now this Benjaminite? Leave him alone and let him curse, for the Lord has told him.

혹시 여호와께서 나의 원통함을 감찰하시리니 오늘 그 저주 때문에 여호와께서 선으로 내게 갚아 주시리라 하고

Perhaps the Lord will look on my misery and return good to me instead of his cursing this day.”
