1 Kings2:44
44 The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness which thine heart is privy to , that thou didst to David my father: therefore the Lord shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head.
For which thy own Conscience accuseth thee, and there is no need of other Witnesses.
Heb. hath returned, which seems most proper. God hath Punished thee for thy former Wickedness, by suffering thee to fall into further Crimes, and expose thy self to thy deserved Death.
