David returns to Yerushalem

2 Sam 19:8b–18a

19:8b David returns to Yerushalem

Full kingdom

But Avshalom’s (Absalom’s) warriors had all returned to their homes 9 and over time, people all across Yisrael (Israel) began to quarrel and say, “The king rescued us from the plans of our enemies including the Pelishtim, but now he’s left Yisrael and fled away from Avshalom. 10 We anointed Avshalom to be over us, but he died in the battle. So why aren’t we doing something about returning David as king?”

11 So King David sent the two priests Tsadok and Evyatar to the leaders of Yehudah (Judah) to ask, “Why are you the last group to return the king to the palace since the king has heard that the rest of Yisrael want it? 12 Tell them, ‘You’re all my relatives—my own flesh and blood, so why would you be the last to support me again?’ ” 13 And tell Amasa, ‘Aren’t you my own flesh and bone? May God make me suffer if you don’t become my army commander from now on, to replace Yoav (Joab).’ ” 14 In that way, David united all the people of Yehudah and they notified the king, “We all want you and all your servants to return here.”

15 So the king headed back and reached the Yarden (Jordan) River, and men from Yehudah went to Gilgal to meet the king and help him across.

16 Shimei (son of Gera the Benyamite from Bahurim)[ref] hurried down with the Yehudah men to meet King David. 17 A thousand Benyamite men came with him, as well as Tsiva (formerly Sha’ul’s (Saul’s) servant) and fifteen of his sons and twenty of his servants, and they hurried to the Yarden to meet the king. 18 They crossed the ford to help bring the king’s household back across and anything else the king wanted.

2Sam 16:5-13:

16:5 Shimei curses David

Full kingdom

5 When King David got to Bahurim, wow, a man from Sha’ul’s (Saul’s) extended family came out. He was Gera’s son Shimei, and he came out and cursed David. 6 Then he threw stones at David and all his servants, and all the people and warriors on both sides of the king. 7 “Go away, go away, you worthless man of much bloodshed!” Shimei yelled. 8 “Now Yahweh’s returning to you all the blood of Sha’ul’s household. You took over as king in his place, but Yahweh’s giving the kingdom into the hand of your son Avshalom (Absalom). Look at you, you’re evil because you’re a man of much bloodshed.”

9 The Tseruyah’s son Avishay asked the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my master the king? Please, let me cross over and lop off his head.”

10 “What does it matter to me, or to you two sons of Tseruyah?” the king replied. “He’s cursing because Yahweh told him to curse me, so who has any right to ask him why he’s saying it?” 11 Then David told Avishay and all his servants, “Look, my own biological son is trying to kill me. Now on top of that, this Benyamite. Leave him and let him curse, because Yahweh told him to. 12 Perhaps Yahweh will see my suffering and return good on me, instead of this cursing today.” 13 As David and his men continued along the road, Shimei walked along the hillside beside him—walking and cursing, and throwing stones and dirt at him.
