1 Kings 2:13-17

13Haggith's son Adonijah visited Bathsheba, Solomon's mother. She asked him, ‘Do you come in peace?’ He answered, ‘Yes, I come in peace.’

14Then he said, ‘I want to say something to you.’ She replied, ‘Tell me.’

15Adonijah said, ‘You know that the kingdom should belong to me. All the Israelite people thought that I should be their king. But everything changed, and now my brother is the king instead of me. The Lord decided that he should be king.

16Now I have one thing to ask you. Please do not refuse me.’ Bathsheba replied, ‘Tell me.’

17So Adonijah said, ‘Please ask King Solomon to give me Abishag, the girl from Shunem, to be my wife. He will do it if you ask him.’
