2 SAMUEL 19:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“And there went over a ferry boat to carry over the king’s household, and to do what he thought good. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king, as he was come over Jordan;”
And they crossed before the king to bring the king's household over and to do his pleasure — and Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king as he was about to cross the Jordan — Shimei falls before the king, performing absolute submission. His gesture of obeisance is meant to expiate his earlier cursing and secure David's forgiveness.
