1 Kings 2

David charges Shelomoh to be strong, walk in YHWH's ways, keep His torot and mishpatim for prosperity, deal with Yo'ab and Shim'i justly, and show kindness to Barzillai's sons before dying; Shelomoh executes Adoniyahu for seeking the kingdom, banishes Evyatar, kills Yo'ab at the mishkan, and later executes Shim'i for violating his oath, establishing the kingdom.[1][2][3]
