21 But Zeruiah's son Abishai asked, |Why shouldn't Shimei be put to death for this? After all, he cursed the LORD's anointed!| 22 David replied, |What do you sons of Zeruiah have in common with me? You've become my enemies today! Should anyone be executed in Israel today? Don't you know that I've been reinstated as king over Israel today?| 23 Then the king addressed Shimei, |You won't die!| affirming his promise with an oath. 2 Samuel 19:21-23, Intl. Standard Version.
