2 SAMUEL 19:23 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“Therefore the king said unto Shimei, Thou shalt not die. And the king sware unto him.”
And the king said to Shimei, You shall not die — And the king swore to him — David grants Shimei a pardon, swearing an oath to confirm it. Yet the pardon is conditional on Shimei's future conduct, and David will later modify it, leaving the obligation of judgment to his heir (cf. 1 Kings 2:8–9).
