2 Samuel 16:7-8

Context
16:7 As he yelled curses, Shimei said, “Leave! Leave! You man of bloodshed, you wicked man! 1  16:8 The Lord has punished you for 2  all the spilled blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you rule. Now the Lord has given the kingdom into the hand of your son Absalom. Disaster has overtaken you, for you are a man of bloodshed!”

2 Samuel 19:18-20

Context
19:18 They crossed at the ford in order to help the king’s household cross and to do whatever he thought appropriate.

Now after he had crossed the Jordan, Shimei son of Gera threw himself down before the king. 19:19 He said to the king, “Don’t think badly of me, my lord, and don’t recall the sin of your servant on the day when you, my lord the king, left 3  Jerusalem! 4  Please don’t call it to mind! 19:20 For I, your servant, 5  know that I sinned, and I have come today as the first of all the house of Joseph to come down to meet my lord the king.”

[16:7]  1 tn Heb “man of worthlessness.”

[16:8]  2 tn Heb “has brought back upon you.”

[19:19]  3 tn Though this verb in the MT is 3rd person masculine singular, it should probably be read as 2nd person masculine singular. It is one of fifteen places where the Masoretes placed a dot over each of the letters of the word in question in order to call attention to their suspicion of the word. Their concern in this case apparently had to do with the fact that this verb and the two preceding verbs alternate from third person to second and back again to third. Words marked in this way in Hebrew manuscripts or printed editions are said to have puncta extrordinaria, or “extraordinary points.”
