6And his fatherH1 had notH3808 displeased him at anyH1571 time in sayingH559, WhyH4069 hast thou doneH6213 soH6213? and he was also a veryH3966 goodly man; and he was bornH3205 afterH310 AbsalomH53.

7And he conferredH1697 with JoabH3097 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870, and with AbiatharH54 the priestH3548: and they followingH310 AdonijahH138 helpedH5826 him.
