King David approached Bahurim. As he did, a man came out toward him. The man was from the same family group that Saul was from. His name was Shimei. He was the son of Gera. As he came out of the town, he cursed David.He threw stones at David and all his officials. He did it even though all the troops and the special guard were there. They were to the right and left of David.

A person without self- control is like a city whose walls are broken through.

“ You are a better person than I am,” he said.“ You have treated me well. But I’ve treated you badly.You have just now told me about the good things you did to me. The Lord handed me over to you. But you didn’t kill me.Suppose a man finds his enemy. He doesn’t let him get away without harming him. May the Lord reward you with many good things. May he do it because of the way you treated me today.I know for sure that you will be king. I know that the kingdom of Israel will be made secure under your control.Now make a promise in the name of the Lord. Promise me that you won’t kill the children of my family. Also promise me that you won’t wipe out my name from my family line.”So David made that promise to Saul. Then Saul returned home. But David and his men went up to his usual place of safety.

Saul became very angry with Jonathan. He said to him,“ You are an evil son. You have refused to obey me. I know that you are on the side of Jesse’s son. You should be ashamed of that. And your mother should be ashamed of having a son like you.You will never be king as long as Jesse’s son lives on this earth. And you will never have a kingdom either. So send someone to bring the son of Jesse to me. He must die!”

Saul said to them,“ Men of Benjamin, listen to me! Do you think Jesse’s son will give all of you fields and vineyards? Do you think he’ll make some of you commanders of thousands of men? Do you think he’ll make the rest of you commanders of hundreds?Is that why all of you have joined together against me? No one tells me when my son makes a covenant with Jesse’s son. None of you is concerned about me. No one tells me that my son has stirred up Jesse’s son to hide and wait to attack me. But that’s exactly what’s happening now.”Doeg was standing with Saul’s officials. He was from Edom. He said,“ I saw Jesse’s son David come to Ahimelek at Nob. Ahimelek is the son of Ahitub.Ahimelek asked the Lord a question for David. He also gave him food and the sword of Goliath, the Philistine.”Then the king sent for the priest Ahimelek, the son of Ahitub. The king also sent for all the men in his family. They were the priests at Nob. All of them came to the king.Saul said,“ Son of Ahitub, listen to me.”“ Yes, master,” he answered.Saul said to him,“ Why have you and Jesse’s son joined together against me? Why did you give him bread and a sword? Why did you ask God a question for him? Now he has turned against me. He is hiding and waiting to attack me right now.”Ahimelek answered the king,“ David is faithful to you. In fact, he’s more faithful to you than anyone else who serves you. He’s your own son- in- law. He’s the captain of your own personal guards. He’s highly respected by everyone in your palace.Was that day the first time I asked God a question for him? Of course not! Please don’t bring charges against me. Please don’t bring charges against anyone in my family. I don’t know anything at all about this whole matter.”But the king said,“ Ahimelek, you will certainly be put to death. You and your whole family will be put to death.”Then the king gave an order to the guards at his side. He said,“ Go and kill the priests of the Lord. They are on David’s side too. They knew he was running away from me. And they didn’t even tell me.” But the king’s officials wouldn’t raise a hand to strike down the priests of the Lord.Then the king ordered Doeg,“ You go and strike down the priests.” So Doeg, the Edomite, went and struck them down. That day he killed 85 priests who wore linen aprons.He also killed the people of Nob with his sword. Nob was a town where priests lived. Doeg killed its men and women. He killed its children and babies. He also destroyed its cattle, donkeys and sheep.But Abiathar, a son of Ahimelek, escaped. Ahimelek was the son of Ahitub. Abiathar ran away and joined David.He told David that Saul had killed the priests of the Lord.Then David said to Abiathar,“ One day I was at Nob. I saw Doeg, the Edomite, there. I knew he would be sure to tell Saul. Your whole family has been killed. And I’m responsible for it.So stay with me. Don’t be afraid. The man who wants to kill you wants to kill me too. You will be safe with me.”

An angry person stirs up fights. And a person with a bad temper commits many sins.

Then Saul said,“ I have sinned. My son David, come back. Today you thought my life was very special. So I won’t try to harm you again. I’ve really acted like a foolish person. I’ve made a huge mistake.”“ Here’s your spear,” David answered.“ Send one of your young men over to get it.The Lord rewards everyone for doing what is right and being faithful. He handed you over to me today. But I wouldn’t harm you. You are the Lord’ s anointed king.Today I thought your life had great value. In the same way, may the Lord think of my life as having great value. May he save me from all trouble.”Then Saul said to David,“ May the Lord bless you, David my son. You will do great things. You will also have great success.” So David went on his way. And Saul returned home.

Don’t be a friend of a person who has a bad temper. Don’t go around with a person who gets angry easily.You might learn their habits. And then you will be trapped by them.
