42 And the king sent and called for Shimei and said to him, “Did not I make you swear by YHWH and give warning to you, saying, ‘On the day of your going out when you travel where and where, you will surely know that you will surely die’? and you said to me, ‘The word I have heard is good.’ 43 And why have not you kept the oath of YHWH and the commandment that I commanded concerning you?” 44 And the king said to Shimei, “You know all the evil that your heart has known, that you did to David my father; and YHWH will return your evil on your head. 45 And King Solomon is blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the face of YHWH even to forever.” 46 And the king commanded Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck down him, and he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon. 1 Kings 2:42-46, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
