Exegesis
The prepositional phrase betse’la ha-har {בְּצֵ֨לַע הָהָ֜ר | bə-ṣêlaʿ hā-hār} “on the side of the hill” establishes spatial relation, and le-ummato {לְעֻמָּת֗וֹ | ləʿummāṯō} “opposite him” underscores confrontation.
In context — 2 Samuel 16:13
And David and his men went on the road, and Shimei was going on the side of the hill opposite him, cursing as he went and throwing stones at him and showering him with dust .
