In making a solemn royal pronouncement to Shimei, Solomon is speaking of himself regally in the third person. Your language may have a regal form that it could use here. (For example, in some languages, kings and queens speak of themselves in the plural.) You could also use the first person. Alternate translation: [But I, King Solomon, will be blessed]
