1 Kings 1:1And king David is old, entering into days, and they cover him with garments, and he hath no heat,1 Kings 1:2and his servants say to him, ‘Let them seek for my lord the king a young woman, a virgin, and she hath stood before the king, and is to him a companion, and hath lain in thy bosom, and my lord the king hath heat.’1 Kings 1:3And they seek a fair young woman in all the border of Israel, and find Abishag the Shunammite, and bring her in to the king,1 Kings 1:4and the young woman is very very fair, and she is to the king a companion, and serveth him, and the king hath not known her.1 Kings 2:13and Adonijah son of Haggith cometh in unto Bath-Sheba, mother of Solomon, and she saith, ‘Is thy coming peace?’ and he saith, ‘Peace.’1 Kings 2:14And he saith, ‘I have a word unto thee,’ and she saith, ‘Speak.’1 Kings 2:15And he saith, ‘Thou hast known that the kingdom was mine, and towards me set their faces had all Israel for reigning, and the kingdom is turned round about, and is my brother’s, for from Jehovah it was his;1 Kings 2:16and now, one petition I am asking of thee—turn not back my face;’ and she saith unto him, ‘Speak.’1 Kings 2:17And he saith, ‘Speak, I pray thee, to Solomon the king, for he doth not turn back thy face, and he doth give to me Abishag the Shunammite for a wife.’1 Kings 2:18And Bath-Sheba saith, ‘Good; I do speak for thee unto the king.’1 Kings 2:19And Bath-Sheba cometh in unto king Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, and the king riseth to meet her, and boweth himself to her, and sitteth on his throne, and placeth a throne for the mother of the king, and she sitteth at his right hand.1 Kings 2:20And she saith, ‘One small petition I ask of thee, turn not back my face;’ and the king saith to her, ‘Ask, my mother, for I do not turn back thy face.’1 Kings 2:21And she saith, ‘Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother for a wife.’1 Kings 2:22And king Solomon answereth and saith to his mother, ‘And why art thou asking Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? also ask for him the kingdom—for he is mine elder brother—even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab son of Zeruiah.’1 Kings 2:23And king Solomon sweareth by Jehovah, saying, ‘Thus doth God to me, and thus He doth add—surely against his soul hath Adonijah spoken this word;1 Kings 2:24and now, Jehovah liveth, who hath established me, and causeth me to sit on the throne of David my father, and who hath made for me an house as He spake—surely to-day is Adonijah put to death.’1 Kings 2:25And king Solomon sendeth by the hand of Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he falleth upon him, and he dieth.
