1 Kings 1:5-7

5Now 1Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, “I will be king.” So 2he prepared for himself chariots and horsemen with fifty men to run before him.

6His father had never 3crossed him at any time by asking, “Why have you done so?” And he was also a very handsome man, and 45he was born after Absalom.

76He had conferred with 7Joab the son of Zeruiah and with 8Abiathar the priest; and following 9Adonijah they helped him.
