csb[5] = "&quot;You also know what Joab son of Zeruiah did to me and what he did to the two commanders of Israel\'s army, Abner son of Ner and Amasa son of Jether.

csb[8] = "&quot;Keep an eye on Shimei son of Gera, the Benjaminite from Bahurim who is with you. He uttered malicious curses against me the day I went to Mahanaim. But he came down to meet me at the Jordan River, and I swore to him by the LORD: \'I will never kill you with the sword.\'";

csb[19] = "So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him about Adonijah. The king stood up to greet her, bowed to her, sat down on his throne, and had a throne placed for the king\'s mother. So she sat down at his right hand.";

csb[26] = "The king said to the priest Abiathar, &quot;Go to your fields in Anathoth. Even though you deserve to die, I will not put you to death today, since you carried the ark of the Lord GOD in the presence of my father David and you suffered through all that my father suffered.&quot;";

csb[30] = "So Benaiah went to the tabernacle and said to Joab, &quot;This is what the king says: \'Come out! \' &quot; But Joab said, &quot;No, for I will die here.&quot; So Benaiah took a message back to the king, &quot;This is what Joab said, and this is how he answered me.&quot;";
csb[31] = "The king said to him, &quot;Do just as he says. Strike him down and bury him in order to remove from me and from my father\'s family the blood that Joab shed without just cause.";
csb[32] = "&quot;The LORD will bring back his own blood on his head because he struck down two men more righteous and better than he, without my father David\'s knowledge.

csb[33] = "&quot;The responsibility for their deaths will come back to Joab and to his descendants forever, but for David, his descendants, his dynasty, and his throne, there will be peace from the LORD forever.&quot;";
csb[34] = "Benaiah son of Jehoiada went up, struck down Joab, and put him to death. He was buried at his house in the wilderness.";

csb[41] = "It was reported to Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and had returned.";
csb[42] = "So the king summoned Shimei and said to him, &quot;Didn\'t I make you swear by the LORD and warn you, saying, \'On the day you leave and go anywhere else, know for sure that you will certainly die\'? And you said to me, \'The sentence is fair; I will obey.\'";
csb[43] = "&quot;So why have you not kept the LORD\'s oath and the command that I gave you? &quot;";
csb[44] = "The king also said, &quot;You yourself know all the evil that you did to my father David. Therefore, the LORD has brought back your evil on your head,";
csb[45] = "&quot;but King Solomon will be blessed, and David\'s throne will remain established before the LORD forever.&quot;";
csb[46] = "Then the king commanded Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck Shimei down, and he died. So the kingdom was established in Solomon\'s hand.";
kjv[1] = "Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying,";

kjv[4] = "That the LORD may continue his word which he spake concerning me, saying, If thy children take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee (said he) a man on the throne of Israel.";
kjv[5] = "Moreover thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, [and] what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, unto Abner the son of Ner, and unto Amasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his girdle that [was] about his loins, and in his shoes that [were] on his feet.";
kjv[6] = "Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and let not his hoar head go down to the grave in peace.";
kjv[7] = "But shew kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table: for so they came to me when I fled because of Absalom thy brother.";
kjv[8] = "And, behold, [thou hast] with thee Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite of Bahurim, which cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim: but he came down to meet me at Jordan, and I sware to him by the LORD, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.";
kjv[9] = "Now therefore hold him not guiltless: for thou [art] a wise man, and knowest what thou oughtest to do unto him; but his hoar head bring thou down to the grave with blood.";
kjv[10] = "So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.";
kjv[11] = "And the days that David reigned over Israel [were] forty years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.";
kjv[12] = "Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.";

kjv[14] = "He said moreover, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And she said, Say on.";
kjv[15] = "And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and [that] all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: howbeit the kingdom is turned about, and is become my brother\'s: for it was his from the LORD.";
kjv[16] = "And now I ask one petition of thee, deny me not. And she said unto him, Say on.";
kjv[17] = "And he said, Speak, I pray thee, unto Solomon the king, (for he will not say thee nay,) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.";
kjv[18] = "And Bathsheba said, Well; I will speak for thee unto the king.";
kjv[19] = "Bathsheba therefore went unto king Solomon, to speak unto him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself unto her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a seat to be set for the king\'s mother; and she sat on his right hand.";
kjv[20] = "Then she said, I desire one small petition of thee; [I pray thee], say me not nay. And the king said unto her, Ask on, my mother: for I will not say thee nay.";
kjv[21] = "And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.";
kjv[22] = "And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother, And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he [is] mine elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.";
kjv[23] = "Then king Solomon sware by the LORD, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life.";
kjv[24] = "Now therefore, [as] the LORD liveth, which hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me an house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.";
kjv[25] = "And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him that he died.";
kjv[26] = "And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou [art] worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.";
kjv[27] = "So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the LORD; that he might fulfil the word of the LORD, which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.";
kjv[28] = "Then tidings came to Joab: for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.";
kjv[29] = "And it was told king Solomon that Joab was fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD; and, behold, [he is] by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.";
kjv[30] = "And Benaiah came to the tabernacle of the LORD, and said unto him, Thus saith the king, Come forth. And he said, Nay; but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.";
kjv[31] = "And the king said unto him, Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me, and from the house of my father.";
kjv[32] = "And the LORD shall return his blood upon his own head, who fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing [thereof, to wit], Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.";

kjv[36] = "And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any whither.";

kjv[43] = "Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the LORD, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?";
kjv[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;";
kjv[45] = "And king Solomon [shall be] blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD for ever.";
