Suffre him to curse, for the Lorde hath bidden him. 12 It may be that the Lorde will loke on myne affliction, and do me good for his cursing this day. 13 And as Dauid and his men went by the way, Semei went along on the hilles syde ouer against him, & cursed as he went, and threwe stones at him, and cast duste. 14 And the king and all that were with him came weery, and refreshed them selues there.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king, and all the people that [were] with him, came weary,.... With their journey, and through grief and trouble at what they met with:

and refreshed themselves there: that is, at Bahurim, with food and rest; which revived their spirits, and put as it were new life and soul into them, as the word used signifies. Josephus y says, when David came to Jordan, he refreshed his weary men.

y Antiqu. l. 7. c. 9. sect. 4.
