21So she saidH559, “1Let AbishagH49 the ShunammiteH7767 be givenH5414 to AdonijahH138 your brotherH251 as a wifeH802.” 22KingH4428 SolomonH8010 answeredH6030 and saidH559 to his motherH517, “And whyH4100 are you askingH7592 AbishagH49 the ShunammiteH7767 for AdonijahH138? 2AskH7592 for him also the kingdomH4410--3for he is my olderH1419 brotherH251--even for him, for 4AbiatharH54 the priestH3548, and for JoabH3097 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870!” 23Then KingH4428 SolomonH8010 sworeH7650 by the LordH3068, sayingH559, “May GodH430 doH6213 soH3541 to me and moreH3254 alsoH3541, ifH3588 AdonijahH138 has 5not spokenH1696 thisH2088 wordH1697 against his own 6lifeH5315. 24NowH6258 therefore, as the LordH3068 livesH2416, whoH834 has establishedH3559 me and setH3427 me on the throneH3678 of DavidH1732 my fatherH1 and 7whoH834 has madeH6213 me a houseH1004 as He promisedH1696, surelyH3588 AdonijahH138 shall be putH4191 to deathH4191 todayH3117.” 25So KingH4428 SolomonH8010 8sentH7971 BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077; and he fellH6293 upon him so that he diedH4191.
