1 Kings2:38
38 And Shimei said unto the king, The saying is good ▪ as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do . And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
Thy Sentence is much more merciful than I expected, or deserved.
And Shimei did not onely promise it, but also swore to it; being required by Solomon to do so, as is manifest from ver. 42, 43.
