1 Kings 2:37-39
New King James Version
37 For it shall be, on the day you go out and cross (A)the Brook Kidron, know for certain you shall surely die; (B)your [a]blood shall be on your own head.”
38 And Shimei said to the king, “The saying is good. As my lord the king has said, so your servant will do.” So Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
39 Now it happened at the end of three years, that two slaves of Shimei ran away to (C)Achish the son of Maachah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, “Look, your slaves are in Gath!”
