36 Then the king summoned Shimei (renowned) and said to him, “Build a house for yourself in Jerusalem (city of peace) and live there, but do not go anywhere else.

37 On the day you go out and cross the Kidron (dark) Valley, know for sure that you will die; your blood will be on your own head.”

38 “The sentence is fair,” Shimei (renowned) replied. “Your servant will do as my lord the king has spoken.” And Shimei lived in Jerusalem (city of peace) for a long time.
