1 Kings 2:37
"For it shall be, that on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

For it shall be, that on the day thou goest out,.... Out of the city of Jerusalem: and passest over the brook Kidron: which is particularly mentioned, because this lay

in his way to Bahurim, his native place; he must cross that to go to it, see Sa2 15:23 ; and where it might reasonably be supposed he would some time or another be inclined to go, through business, or a desire to see it again: thou shalt know for certain that thou shall surely die: it may be depended on as what will be most certainly the case; no reprieve nor pardon will be granted: thy blood shall be on thine own head; fair warning being given, he could blame none but himself, should he be guilty and suffer.
