2 Samuel 19:22-24
New English Translation

22 But David said, “What do we have in common,[a] you sons of Zeruiah? You are like my enemy today! Should anyone be put to death in Israel today? Don’t I know that today I am king over Israel?” 23 The king said to Shimei, “You won’t die.” The king vowed an oath[b] concerning this.

24 Now Mephibosheth, Saul’s grandson,[c] came down to meet the king. From the day the king had left until the day he safely[d] returned, Mephibosheth[e] had not cared for his feet[f] nor trimmed[g] his mustache nor washed his clothes.
