2 Samuel 19:22-24

Revised Geneva Translation

²² And David said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that this day you should be adversaries to me? Shall there any man die this day in Israel? For do not I know that I am this day king over Israel?”

²³ Therefore, the king said to Shimei, “You shall not die.” And the king swore to him.

²⁴ And Mephibosheth, the son of Saul, came down to meet the king, and had neither washed his feet nor trimmed his beard nor washed his clothes, from the time the king departed until he returned in peace.
