2 Samuel 16:1-14
Ziba brought a string of donkeys saddled and loaded with two hundred loaves of bread... he appeared at the right time to king David.
Shimei curse David for he shed in the household of Saul, but David didn't. David always respect Saul not many times did not take his life, for David knew Saul is an anointed one of God.
David ignored the curse of Shimei, he thought it is the Lord who has told him to. "It may be that the Lord will see my distress and repay me with good for the cursing I am receiving today". David still put his hope to the Lord.
Why?
Obsequious拍馬屁的,低三下四 clearly has an eye to the main chance. Mephibosheth later denies the charges made against him.
Shimei takes a vindictive pleasure in the downfall of the man who robbed his family of the throne.
David has never thought less of himself. As he makes for the Jordan, on the run from his own son as he had once been from Saul, he is at an all-time low. What happens now will rest with God.
How?
No matter what happen sons of God will rest with God. He is the Lord!
