MLV(i)
36 And the king sent and called for Shimei and said to him, Build a house in Jerusalem for you and dwell there and do not go forth from there anywhere.
37 For on the day you go out and pass over the brook Kidron, know for certain that you will surely die; your blood will be upon your own head.
38 And Shimei said to the king, The saying is good. As my lord the king has said, so will your servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
39 And it happened at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away to Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, your servants are in Gath. 40 And Shimei arose and saddled his donkey and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants. And Shimei went and brought his servants from Gath.
41 And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and was come again. 42 And the king sent and called for Shimei and said to him, Did I not make you swear by Jehovah and protest to you, saying, Know for certain, that on the day you go out and walk abroad anywhere, you will surely die? And you said to me, The saying that I have heard is good.
43 Why then have you not kept the oath of Jehovah and the commandment that I have charged you with? 44 The king said moreover to Shimei, You know all the evil which your heart has known, what you did to David my father. Therefore Jehovah will return your evil upon your own head.
