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.

In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarthan.

Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.

So he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
