New American Standard Bible
Chapter 16
10
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?’?'
11
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.

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.

11
Then David said to Abishai and all his servants, "Look, my own son, my own flesh and blood, intends to take my life —how much more now this Benjaminite! Leave him alone and let him curse me; the
Lord
has told him to.

Lord
has told him to curse me, who are you to stop him?'

Lord
has told him to do it.
