2 Samuel 19:16-20
16Then 1Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjaminite who was from Bahurim, hurried and came down with the men of Judah to meet King David.
17And there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and 2Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they rushed to the Jordan before the king.
18Then they crossed the shallow places repeatedly to bring over the king’s household, and to do what was good in his sight. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king as he was about to cross the Jordan.
19And he said to the king, “3May my lord not consider me guilty, nor call to mind what your servant did wrong on the day when my lord the king went out from Jerusalem, so that the king would 4take it to heart.
20For your servant knows that I have sinned; so behold, I have come today, 5the first of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.”
