2 Samuel 19:18-20

Expanded Bible

¹⁸ The people went across the ·Jordan [^Lford] to help ·bring [escort] the king’s family back to Judah and to do whatever the king wanted. As the king was crossing the river, Shimei son of Gera came to him and ·bowed facedown on the ground [prostrated himself] in front of the king. ¹⁹ He said to the king, “My master, don’t hold me guilty. ·Don’t remember [Forget] the wrong ·I [^Lyour servant] did when you left Jerusalem! ·Don’t hold it against me [Put it out of your mind]. ²⁰ I know I have sinned. That is why I am the first person from Joseph’s ·family [^Lhouse; ^Cthat is, the first Israelite] to come down and meet you today, my master and king!”
