1 Kings 1:1-5

1Now King David was old, advanced in age; and they covered him with clothes, but he could not keep warm. 2So his servants said to him, “Let them seek a young virgin for my lord the king, and let her 1attend the king and become his nurse; and let her lie in your bosom, that my lord the king may keep warm.” 3So they searched for a beautiful girl throughout all the territory of Israel, and found Abishag the 2Shunammite, and brought her to the king. 4The girl was very beautiful; and she became the king’s nurse and served him, but the king did not 3cohabit with her.

5Now 4Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, “I will be king.” So 5he prepared for himself chariots and horsemen with fifty men to run before him.
