1 KINGS 2:36 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any whither.”
"And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and had returned." — Intelligence reaches Solomon: Shimei has violated the confinement boundary. The notification triggers Solomon's response. The phrase *higid le-Shlomoh* (it was told to Solomon) suggests Solomon had the movement monitored—he was waiting for Shimei to break oath.
