2 Samuel 16:11-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 16
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.
12
Perhaps the
Lord
will look on my misery and return good to me instead of his cursing this day.'
King James Version
Chapter 16
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.
12
It may be that the
Lord
will look on mine affliction, and that the
Lord
will requite me good for his cursing this day.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 16
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.
12
Perhaps the
Lord
will see my affliction and restore goodness to me instead of Shimei’s curses today."
New Living Translation
Chapter 16
11
Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, 'My own son is trying to kill me. Doesn’t this relative of Saul have even more reason to do so? Leave him alone and let him curse, for the
Lord
has told him to do it.
12
And perhaps the
Lord
will see that I am being wronged and will bless me because of these curses today.'
English Standard Version
Chapter 16
11
And David said to Abishai and to all his servants, "Behold, my own son seeks my life; how much more now may this Benjaminite! Leave him alone, and let him curse, for the
Lord
has told him to.
12
It may be that the
Lord
will look on the wrong done to me, and that the
Lord
will repay me with good for his cursing today."
New International Version
Chapter 16
11
David then said to Abishai and all his officials, "My son, my own flesh and blood, is trying to kill me. How much more, then, this Benjamite! Leave him alone; let him curse, for the
Lord
has told him to.
12
It may be that the
Lord
will look upon my misery and restore to me his covenant blessing instead of his curse today."
New King James Version
Chapter 16
11
And David said to Abishai and all his servants, “See how my son who came from my own body seeks my life. How much more now
may this
Benjamite? Let him alone, and let him curse; for so the
Lord
has ordered him.
12
It may be that the
Lord
will look on my affliction, and that the
Lord
will repay me with good for his cursing this day.”
