Shimei son of Gera, a Benjaminite from Bahurim, hurried down with the men of Judah to meet King David.

And Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite, which[ was] of Bahurim, hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.

Shimei son of Gera the Benjaminite from Bahurim came down quickly with the men of Judah to meet King David.

Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, who was of Bahurim, hurried and came down with the men of Judah to meet king David.

And behold, you have with you Shimei the son of Gera the Benjaminite, of Bahurim; now it was he who cursed me with a painful curse on the day I went to Mahanaim. But when he came down to meet me at the Jordan, I swore to him by the Lord, saying,‘ I will not put you to death with the sword.’

When King David came to Bahurim, behold, a man was coming out from there from the family of the house of Saul, and his name was Shimei, the son of Gera; he was coming out, cursing as he came.He also threw stones at David and all the servants of King David; and all the people and all the warriors were on his right and on his left.This is what Shimei said when he cursed:“ Go away, go away, you man of bloodshed and worthless man!The Lord has brought back upon you all the bloodshed of the house of Saul, in whose place you have become king; and the Lord has handed the kingdom over to your son Absalom. And behold, you are caught in your own evil, for you are a man of bloodshed!”Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king,“ Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Now let me go over and cut off his head.”But the king said,“ What business of mine is yours, you sons of Zeruiah? If he curses, and if the Lord has told him,‘ Curse David,’ then who should say,‘ Why have you done so?’ ”Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants,“ Behold, my son who came out of my own body seeks my life; how much more now this Benjaminite? Leave him alone and let him curse, for the Lord has told him.Perhaps the Lord will look on my misery and return good to me instead of his cursing this day.”So David and his men went on the road; and Shimei kept going on the hillside close beside him, and as he went he cursed and threw stones and dirt at him.

Come to good terms with your accuser quickly, while you are with him on the way to court, so that your accuser will not hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you will not be thrown into prison.

Now the king sent men and summoned Shimei, and said to him,“ Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and live there, and do not leave there for any other place.For on the day you leave and cross the brook Kidron, you will know for certain that you will assuredly die; your blood will be on your own head.”Shimei then said to the king,“ The word is good. Just as my lord the king has spoken, so your servant shall do.” So Shimei lived in Jerusalem for many days.But it came about at the end of three years, that two of Shimei’s servants ran away to Achish son of Maacah, king of Gath. And others told Shimei, saying,“ Behold, your servants are in Gath.”Then Shimei got up and saddled his donkey, and went to Gath to Achish, to search for his servants. And Shimei went and brought his servants from Gath.And it was reported to Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and had returned.So the king sent men and summoned Shimei, and said to him,“ Did I not make you swear by the Lord, and solemnly warn you, saying,‘ Know for certain that on the day you depart and go anywhere, you shall assuredly die’? And you said to me,‘ The word I have heard is good.’Why then have you not kept the oath of the Lord, and the command which I imposed on you?”The king also said to Shimei,“ You yourself know all the evil that you acknowledge in your heart, which you did to my father David; therefore the Lord will return your evil on your own head.But King Solomon will be blessed, and the throne of David will be established before the Lord forever.”So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck him so that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hands of Solomon.

Give no sleep to your eyes, Nor slumber to your eyelids;Save yourself like a gazelle from the hunter’s hand, And like a bird from the hand of the fowler.

Satan answered the Lord and said,“ Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has, he will give for his life.
