See, you have come to ruin because you are a man of bloodshed!”2 Samuel 16:9Then Abishai son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Let me go over and cut off his head!”2 Samuel 16:10But the king replied, “What have I to do with you, O sons of Zeruiah? If he curses me because the LORD told him, ‘Curse David,’ who can ask, ‘Why did you do this?’”2 Samuel 16:11Then David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my own son, my own flesh and blood, seeks my life. How much more, then, this Benjamite! Leave him alone and let him curse me, for the LORD has told him so.2 Samuel 16:12Perhaps the LORD will see my affliction and repay me with good for the cursing I receive today.”2 Samuel 16:13So David and his men proceeded along the road as Shimei went along the ridge of the hill opposite him.

And you told me, ‘The sentence is fair; I will comply.’1 Kings 2:43So why have you not kept your oath to the LORD and the command that I gave you?”1 Kings 2:44The king also said, “You know in your heart all the evil that you did to my father David. Therefore the LORD will bring your evil back upon your head.1 Kings 2:45But King Solomon will be blessed and David’s throne will remain secure before the LORD forever.”1 Kings 2:46Then the king commanded Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck Shimei down, and he died.
