1 Kings 2:42-44

International Standard Version

⁴² so the king sent for Shimei and asked him, “Didn’t I make a promise to the Lord and warn you, ‘The day you leave and go anywhere else, you can be sure you’ll die’? And you told me, ‘What your majesty has decreed is acceptable to me.’ ⁴³ So why haven’t you kept the oath you made to the Lord, and why didn’t you obey my personal order to you?”

⁴⁴ The king also reminded Shimei, “You know all the evil things that you admit you did to my father David. Therefore the Lord is going to repay you for^[a] all of your evil.
