²² He said to him, ^(A)‘I will condemn you with your own words, ^(B)you wicked servant! You knew that I was ^(C)a severe man, taking what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow?

³⁶ Then the king sent and summoned ^(A)Shimei and said to him, “Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and dwell there, and do not go out from there to any place whatever. ³⁷ For on the day you go out and cross ^(B)the brook Kidron, know for certain that you shall die. ^(C)Your blood shall be on your own head.” ³⁸ And Shimei said to the king, “What you say is good; as my lord the king has said, so will your servant do.” So Shimei lived in Jerusalem many days.
