1 Chronicles 3:1-9
1These were the sons of David who were born to him in Hebron:
The firstborn was Amnon by Ahinoam of Jezreel; the second was Daniel by Abigail of Carmel; 2the third was Absalom the son of Maacah daughter of King Talmai of Geshur; the fourth was Adonijah the son of Haggith; 3the fifth was Shephatiah by Abital; and the sixth was Ithream by his wife Eglah. 4These six sons were born to David in Hebron, where he reigned seven years and six months.
And David reigned in Jerusalem thirty-three years, 5and these sons were born to him in Jerusalem:
Shimea,1 Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon. These four were born to him by Bathsheba2 daughter of Ammiel.3 6David’s other sons were Ibhar,4 Elishua,5 Eliphelet, 7Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia, 8Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet—nine in all. 9These were all the sons of David, besides the sons by his concubines. And Tamar was their sister.
