1Now kingH4428 DavidH1732 was oldH2204 and advancedH935 in yearsH3117; and they coveredH3680 him with clothesH899, but he could not get warmH3179.1 2Therefore his servantsH5650 saidH559 to him, Let there be soughtH1245 for my lordH113 the kingH4428 a youngH5291 virginH1330: and let her standH5975 beforeH6440 the kingH4428, and let her cherishH5532 him, and let her lieH7901 in thy bosomH2436, that my lordH113 the kingH4428 may get warmH2552.234 3So they soughtH1245 for a fairH3303 damselH5291 throughout all the landH1366 of IsraelH3478, and foundH4672 AbishagH49 a ShunammiteH7767, and broughtH935 her to the kingH4428. 4And the damselH5291 was veryH3966 fairH3303, and cherishedH5532 the kingH4428, and ministeredH8334 to him: but the kingH4428 knewH3045 her not.
