1 Kings 2:42-44

42So the kingH4428 sentH7971 men and summonedH7121 ShimeiH8096, and saidH559 to him, “Did I not make you swearH7650 by the LordH3068, and solemnlyH5749 warnH5749 you, sayingH559, ‘KnowH3045 forH3045 certainH3045 that on the dayH3117 you departH3318 and goH1980 anywhereH575, you shall assuredlyH4191 dieH4191’? And you saidH559 to me, ‘The wordH1697 I have heardH8085 is goodH2896.’

43WhyH4069 then have you not keptH8104 the oathH7621 of the LordH3068, and the commandH4687 whichH834 I 1imposedH6680 on you?”

44The kingH4428 also saidH559 to ShimeiH8096, “2You yourselfH859 knowH3045 allH3605 the evilH7463 that 3you acknowledgeH3045 in your heartH3824, whichH834 you didH6213 to my fatherH1 DavidH1732; therefore 4the LordH3068 will returnH7725 your evilH7463 on your own headH7218.
