1 Kings 2:36-38

New Life Version

The Death of Shimei

³⁶ Then the king sent for Shimei and said to him, “Build a house for yourself in Jerusalem and live there. Do not leave there. ³⁷ For on the day you go out and cross the river Kidron, you will know for sure that you will die. Your blood will be on your own head.” ³⁸ Shimei said to the king, “What you say is good. Your servant will do as my lord the king has said.” So Shimei lived in Jerusalem many days.
