1 Kings 2:13-22

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.

19Bath–shebaH1339 therefore wentH935 unto kingH4428 SolomonH8010, to speakH1696 unto him for AdonijahH138. And the kingH4428 rose upH6965 to meetH7125 her, and bowedH7812 himself unto her, and sat downH3427 on his throneH3678, and caused a seatH3678 to be setH7760 for the king’sH4428 motherH517; and she satH3427 on his right handH3225. 20Then she saidH559, I desireH7592 oneH259 smallH6996 petitionH7596 of thee; I pray thee, sayH7725 meH6440 not nayH7725. And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto her, Ask onH7592, my motherH517: for I will not sayH7725 theeH6440 nayH7725. 21And she saidH559, Let AbishagH49 the ShunammiteH7767 be givenH5414 to AdonijahH138 thy brotherH251 to wifeH802. 22And kingH4428 SolomonH8010 answeredH6030 and saidH559 unto his motherH517, And why dost thou askH7592 AbishagH49 the ShunammiteH7767 for AdonijahH138? askH7592 for him the kingdomH4410 also; for he is mine elderH1419 brotherH251; even for him, and for AbiatharH54 the priestH3548, and for JoabH3097 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870.
