Kabbalah sobre II Samuel 16:11
וַיֹּ֨אמֶר דָּוִ֤ד אֶל־אֲבִישַׁי֙ וְאֶל־כָּל־עֲבָדָ֔יו הִנֵּ֥ה בְנִ֛י אֲשֶׁר־יָצָ֥א מִמֵּעַ֖י מְבַקֵּ֣שׁ אֶת־נַפְשִׁ֑י וְאַ֨ף כִּֽי־עַתָּ֜ה בֶּן־הַיְמִינִ֗י הַנִּ֤חוּ לוֹ֙ וִֽיקַלֵּ֔ל כִּ֥י אָֽמַר־ל֖וֹ יְהוָֽה׃
Y dijo David á Abisai y á todos sus siervos: He aquí, mi hijo que ha salido de mis entrañas, acecha á mi vida: ¿cuánto más ahora un hijo de Benjamín? Dejadle que maldiga, que SEÑOR se lo ha dicho.

And included in the correction of the attribute of peace is that one listens to embarrassing criticism and does not answer back, because since he denounced the attribute of peace he should accept the judgment of heaven with happiness. King David, because he sinned by Batsheva, accepted his punishment when Shimi ben Gera embarrassed him, and he said “let him curse, for God told him to” (Samuel II 16:11), and we was silent.
