1 Kings 2:42-44

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁴² So the king sent and called for Shimei and said to him, “Did I not make you swear by the Lord and solemnly warn you, saying, ‘You will know for certain that on the day you depart and go anywhere, you shall surely die’? And you said to me, ‘The word which I have heard is good.’ ⁴³ Why then have you not kept the oath of the Lord, and the command which I ^[a]have laid on you?” ⁴⁴ The king also said to Shimei, “^(A)You know all the evil which ^[b]you acknowledge in your heart, which you did to my father David; therefore ^(B)the Lord shall return your evil on your own head.
