Douay Rheims Original ↷
1 Kings 2 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
26 To Abiathar also the priest the king said: Go into Anathoth to thy field, and thou indeed art a man of death: but to day I will not kill thee, because thou didst carry the ark of our Lord God before David my father, & hast sustained labour in all things, wherein my father laboured.
Execution of Shimei
36 The king also sent, and called Semei, and said to him: Build thee a house in Jerusalem, and dwell there: and thou shalt not go out thence hither and thither.
37 But what day soever thou shalt go out, and shalt pass the Torrent Cedron, know that thou art to be slain: thy blood shall be upon thy head.
38 And Semei said to the king: The saying is good: as my lord the king hath spoken, so will thy servant do. Semei therefore dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
