1 Kings 2:7 in Context — 1 Kings 2
5 E já sabes tu o que me fez Joabe filho de Zeruia, o que fez a dois generais do exército de Israel, a Abner filho de Ner, e a Amasa filho de Jéter, os quais ele matou, derramando em paz o sangue de guerra, e pondo o sangue de guerra em seu cinto que tinha em sua cintura, e nos sapatos que tinha em seus pés.
6 Tu, pois, farás conforme a tua sabedoria; não o deixarás descer ao Xeol na velhice em paz.
7 Mas aos filhos de Barzilai gileadita farás misericórdia, que sejam dos convidados a tua mesa; porque eles vieram assim a mim, quando ia fugindo de Absalão teu irmão.
8 Também tens contigo Simei, filho de Gera, filho de Benjamim, de Baurim, o qual me amaldiçoou com uma severa maldição no dia em que eu ia a Maanaim. Mas ele mesmo desceu para me receber junto ao Jordão, e eu lhe jurei pelo SENHOR, dizendo: Eu não te matarei à espada
9 Porém agora não o absolverás; porque és homem sábio, e sabes como agirás para com ele; e farás seus cabelos grisalhos descerem com sangue ao Xeol.
