What does the Bible say about Shimei's curse on David?

In 2 Samuel 16, Shimei, a Benjaminite loyal to Saul's memory, confronts David, hurling curses and stones at him during his flight from Jerusalem. Shimei's actions were a reflection of the lingering resentment against David's reign from those who still supported Saul's line. Despite the false accusations Shimei makes against David, which actually apply more to Saul, David chooses to endure the humiliation. He interprets Shimei's behavior as a providential trial from God, illustrating trust in God's plan even amidst suffering.
