And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, “Build yourself a house in Jerusalem, and live there, and do not leave it and don’t go anywhere else. For on the day you go out, you will die.” And Shimei said this was good. But three years later, it came to pass that two of his servants ran away to Gath. Shimei saddled his donkey and brought his two servants back. This was reported to Solomon. He sent Benaiah, who struck him down, so he died.
