2 Samuel 19:22-24

Legacy Standard Bible

²² David then said, “^(A)What have I to do with you, O sons of Zeruiah, that you should this day be an adversary to me? ^(B)Should any man be put to death in Israel today? For do I not know that I am king over Israel today?” ²³ And the king said to Shimei, “^(C)You shall not die.” Thus the king swore to him.

²⁴ Now ^(D)Mephibosheth the ^[a]son of Saul had come down to meet the king; and ^(E)he had not done anything for his feet, nor done anything for his mustache, nor ^(F)washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.
