13And AdonijahH138 the sonH1121 of HaggithH2294 cameH935 to Bath–shebaH1339 the motherH517 of SolomonH8010. And she saidH559, ComestH935 thou peaceablyH7965? And he saidH559, PeaceablyH7965. 14He saidH559 moreover, I have somewhat to sayH1697 unto thee. And she saidH559, Say onH1696. 15And he saidH559, Thou knowestH3045 that the kingdomH4410 was mine, and that all IsraelH3478 setH7760 their facesH6440 on me, that I should reignH4427: howbeit the kingdomH4410 is turned aboutH5437, and is become my brother’sH251: for it was his from YhwhH3068. 16And now I askH7592 oneH259 petitionH7596 of thee, denyH7725 meH6440 not. And she saidH559 unto him, Say onH1696.1 17And he saidH559, SpeakH559, I pray thee, unto SolomonH8010 the kingH4428, (for he will not sayH7725 theeH6440 nayH7725,) that he giveH5414 me AbishagH49 the ShunammiteH7767 to wifeH802. 18And Bath–shebaH1339 saidH559, WellH2896; I will speakH1696 for thee unto the kingH4428.
