1 Kings 2:8-9

8Keep an eye onH2009 ShimeiH8096 the sonH1121 of GeraH1617, the BenjamiteH1145 from BahurimH980 who is with youH5973. HeH1931 called down bitterH4834 curses against meH7043H7045 on the dayH3117 I wentH1980 to MahanaimH4266, but whenH1931 he came downH3381 to meet meH7122 at the JordanH3383, I sworeH7650 to him by the LORDH3068H559: ‘I will neverH518 put youH4191 to the swordH2719.’ 9Now thereforeH6258, do notH408 hold him guiltlessH5352, forH3588 youH859 are a wiseH2450 manH376. You knowH3045 whatH834 you ought to doH6213 to him to bring his gray headH7872 downH3381 to SheolH7585 in bloodH1818.”
