1 Kings 2:6-8
The Voice
6 Act wisely, and take revenge on Joab. Do not allow a single gray hair on his head to descend into the grave peacefully. 7 Be loving toward the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite. Invite them to feast at your table because they were good friends to me when I ran from your brother, Absalom.[a] 8 There is also Shimei (Gera’s son) the Benjaminite of Bahurim. He cursed me with terrible words when I went to Mahanaim, but when we met again at the Jordan River, I made him a promise in the sight of the Eternal. I told him, “I am not going to kill you.”[b]
