1 Kings 2:44-46 ▼

44 The king also said to Shimei, “You know all the evil which you acknowledge in your heart, which you did to my father David; therefore Yahweh shall return your evil on your own head.

45 But King Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before Yahweh forever.”

46 So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and fell upon him so that he died. Thus the kingdom was established in the hands of Solomon.
