God’s Word Translation
1 Kings 2:23-25
23King Solomon took an oath by the Lord and said, “May God strike me dead if Adonijah doesn’t pay with his life for this request!
24The Lord set me on my father David’s throne and gave me a dynasty as he promised. So I solemnly swear, as the Lord who has established me lives, that Adonijah will be put to death today.”
25King Solomon gave this task to Benaiah, son of Jehoiada. Benaiah attacked and killed Adonijah.
