42 Solomon sent for him and said: Shimei, you promised in the name of the LORD that you would never leave Jerusalem. I warned you that you would die if you did. You agreed that this was fair, didn't you? 43 You have disobeyed me and have broken the promise you made to the LORD. 44 I know you remember all the cruel things you did to my father David. Now the LORD is going to punish you for what you did. 45 But the LORD will bless me and make my father's kingdom strong forever. 46 "Benaiah," Solomon shouted, "kill Shimei." So Shimei died. Solomon was now in complete control of his kingdom.
