1 Kings 2:8-9

8BeholdH2009, 1there is with you ShimeiH8096 the sonH1121 of GeraH1617 the BenjamiteH1145, of BahurimH980; now it was he who cursedH7043 me with a 2violentH4834 curseH7045 on the dayH3117 I wentH1980 to MahanaimH4266. But when 3he cameH3381 downH3381H7122 to me at the JordanH3383, I sworeH7650 to him by the LordH3068, sayingH559, ‘I will not putH4191 you to deathH4191 with the swordH2719.’ 9NowH6258 therefore, do not let him goH5352 unpunishedH5352, 4for you are a wiseH2450 manH376; and you will knowH3045 whatH834 you ought to doH6213 to him, and you will bringH3381 his grayH7872 hairH7872 downH3381 to 5SheolH7585 with bloodH1818.”
