verses:

1. Now king[H4428] David[H1732] was old[H2204] and stricken[H935] in years;[H3117] and they covered[H3680] him with clothes,[H899] but he got no heat.[H3808] [H3179]

2. Wherefore his servants[H5650] said[H559] unto him, Let there be sought[H1245] for my lord[H113] the king[H4428] a young[H5291] virgin:[H1330] and let her stand[H5975] before[H6440] the king,[H4428] and let her cherish[H5532] him, and let her lie[H7901] in thy bosom,[H2436] that my lord[H113] the king[H4428] may get heat.[H2552]

3. So they sought[H1245] for a fair[H3303] damsel[H5291] throughout all[H3605] the coasts[H1366] of Israel,[H3478] and found[H4672] [H853] Abishag[H49] a Shunammite,[H7767] and brought[H935] her to the king.[H4428]

4. And the damsel[H5291] was very[H5704] [H3966] fair,[H3303] and cherished[H5532] the king,[H4428] and ministered[H8334] to him: but the king[H4428] knew[H3045] her not.[H3808]

5. Then Adonijah[H138] the son[H1121] of Haggith[H2294] exalted himself,[H4984] saying,[H559] I[H589] will be king:[H4427] and he prepared[H6213] him chariots[H7393] and horsemen,[H6571] and fifty[H2572] men[H376] to run[H7323] before[H6440] him.

6. And his father[H1] had not[H3808] displeased[H6087] him at any time[H4480] [H3117] in saying,[H559] Why[H4069] hast thou done[H6213] so?[H3602] and he[H1931] also[H1571] was a very[H3966] goodly[H2896] [H8389] man; and his mother bore[H3205] him after[H310] Absalom.[H53]

7. And he conferred[H1697] with[H5973] Joab[H3097] the son[H1121] of Zeruiah,[H6870] and with[H5973] Abiathar[H54] the priest:[H3548] and they following[H310] Adonijah[H138] helped[H5826] him.

8. But Zadok[H6659] the priest,[H3548] and Benaiah[H1141] the son[H1121] of Jehoiada,[H3077] and Nathan[H5416] the prophet,[H5030] and Shimei,[H8096] and Rei,[H7472] and the mighty men[H1368] which[H834] belonged to David,[H1732] were[H1961] not[H3808] with[H5973] Adonijah.[H138]

9. And Adonijah[H138] slew[H2076] sheep[H6629] and oxen[H1241] and fat cattle[H4806] by[H5973] the stone[H68] of Zoheleth,[H2120] which[H834] is by[H681] En-rogel,[H5883] and called[H7121] [H853] all[H3605] his brethren[H251] the king's[H4428] sons,[H1121] and all[H3605] the men[H376] of Judah[H3063] the king's[H4428] servants: [H5650]

10. But Nathan[H5416] the prophet,[H5030] and Benaiah,[H1141] and the mighty men,[H1368] and Solomon[H8010] his brother,[H251] he called[H7121] not.[H3808]

11. Wherefore Nathan[H5416] spoke[H559] unto[H413] Bath-sheba[H1339] the mother[H517] of Solomon,[H8010] saying,[H559] Hast thou not[H3808] heard[H8085] that[H3588] Adonijah[H138] the son[H1121] of Haggith[H2294] doth reign,[H4427] and David[H1732] our lord[H113] knoweth[H3045] it not?[H3808]

12. Now[H6258] therefore come,[H1980] let me, I pray thee,[H4994] give[H3289] thee counsel,[H6098] that thou mayest save[H4422] [H853] thine own life,[H5315] and the life[H5315] of thy son[H1121] Solomon.[H8010]

13. Go[H1980] and get thee in[H935] unto[H413] king[H4428] David,[H1732] and say[H559] unto[H413] him, Didst not[H3808] thou,[H859] my lord,[H113] O king,[H4428] swear[H7650] unto thine handmaid,[H519] saying,[H559] Assuredly[H3588] Solomon[H8010] thy son[H1121] shall reign[H4427] after[H310] me, and he[H1931] shall sit[H3427] upon[H5921] my throne?[H3678] why[H4069] then doth Adonijah[H138] reign?[H4427]

14. Behold,[H2009] while thou yet[H5750] talkest[H1696] there[H8033] with[H5973] the king,[H4428] I[H589] also will come in[H935] after[H310] thee, and confirm[H4390] [H853] thy words.[H1697]

15. And Bath-sheba[H1339] went in[H935] unto[H413] the king[H4428] into the chamber:[H2315] and the king[H4428] was very[H3966] old;[H2204] and Abishag[H49] the Shunammite[H7767] ministered unto[H8334] [H853] the king.[H4428]

16. And Bath-sheba[H1339] bowed,[H6915] and did obeisance[H7812] unto the king.[H4428] And the king[H4428] said,[H559] What[H4100] wouldest thou?

17. And she said[H559] unto him, My lord,[H113] thou[H859] swarest[H7650] by the LORD[H3068] thy God[H430] unto thine handmaid,[H519] saying, Assuredly[H3588] Solomon[H8010] thy son[H1121] shall reign[H4427] after[H310] me, and he[H1931] shall sit[H3427] upon[H5921] my throne.[H3678]

18. And now,[H6258] behold,[H2009] Adonijah[H138] reigneth;[H4427] and now,[H6258] my lord[H113] the king,[H4428] thou knowest[H3045] it not: [H3808]

19. And he hath slain[H2076] oxen[H7794] and fat cattle[H4806] and sheep[H6629] in abundance,[H7230] and hath called[H7121] all[H3605] the sons[H1121] of the king,[H4428] and Abiathar[H54] the priest,[H3548] and Joab[H3097] the captain[H8269] of the host:[H6635] but Solomon[H8010] thy servant[H5650] hath he not[H3808] called.[H7121]

20. And thou,[H859] my lord,[H113] O king,[H4428] the eyes[H5869] of all[H3605] Israel[H3478] are upon[H5921] thee, that thou shouldest tell[H5046] them who[H4310] shall sit[H3427] on[H5921] the throne[H3678] of my lord[H113] the king[H4428] after[H310] him.

21. Otherwise it shall come to pass,[H1961] when my lord[H113] the king[H4428] shall sleep[H7901] with[H5973] his fathers,[H1] that I[H589] and my son[H1121] Solomon[H8010] shall be counted[H1961] offenders.[H2400]

22. And, lo,[H2009] while she yet[H5750] talked[H1696] with[H5973] the king,[H4428] Nathan[H5416] the prophet[H5030] also came in.[H935]

23. And they told[H5046] the king,[H4428] saying,[H559] Behold[H2009] Nathan[H5416] the prophet.[H5030] And when he was come in[H935] before[H6440] the king,[H4428] he bowed himself[H7812] before the king[H4428] with[H5921] his face[H639] to the ground.[H776]

24. And Nathan[H5416] said,[H559] My lord,[H113] O king,[H4428] hast thou[H859] said,[H559] Adonijah[H138] shall reign[H4427] after[H310] me, and he[H1931] shall sit[H3427] upon[H5921] my throne?[H3678]

25. For[H3588] he is gone down[H3381] this day,[H3117] and hath slain[H2076] oxen[H7794] and fat cattle[H4806] and sheep[H6629] in abundance,[H7230] and hath called[H7121] all[H3605] the king's[H4428] sons,[H1121] and the captains[H8269] of the host,[H6635] and Abiathar[H54] the priest;[H3548] and, behold,[H2009] they eat[H398] and drink[H8354] before[H6440] him, and say,[H559] God save[H2421] king[H4428] Adonijah.[H138]

26. But me, even me[H589] thy servant,[H5650] and Zadok[H6659] the priest,[H3548] and Benaiah[H1141] the son[H1121] of Jehoiada,[H3077] and thy servant[H5650] Solomon,[H8010] hath he not[H3808] called.[H7121]

27. Is this[H2088] thing[H1697] done[H1961] by[H4480] [H854] my lord[H113] the king,[H4428] and thou hast not[H3808] showed it unto[H3045] [H853] thy servant,[H5650] who[H4310] should sit[H3427] on[H5921] the throne[H3678] of my lord[H113] the king[H4428] after[H310] him?

28. Then king[H4428] David[H1732] answered[H6030] and said,[H559] Call[H7121] me Bath-sheba.[H1339] And she came into[H935] the king's[H4428] presence,[H6440] and stood[H5975] before[H6440] the king.[H4428]

29. And the king[H4428] swore,[H7650] and said,[H559] As the LORD[H3068] liveth,[H2416] that[H834] hath redeemed[H6299] [H853] my soul[H5315] out of all[H4480] [H3605] distress,[H6869]

30. Even[H3588] as[H834] I swore[H7650] unto thee by the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of Israel,[H3478] saying,[H559] Assuredly[H3588] Solomon[H8010] thy son[H1121] shall reign[H4427] after[H310] me, and he[H1931] shall sit[H3427] upon[H5921] my throne[H3678] in my stead;[H8478] even[H3588] so[H3651] will I certainly do[H6213] this[H2088] day.[H3117]

31. Then Bath-sheba[H1339] bowed[H6915] with her face[H639] to the earth,[H776] and did reverence[H7812] to the king,[H4428] and said,[H559] Let my lord[H113] king[H4428] David[H1732] live[H2421] forever.[H5769]

32. And king[H4428] David[H1732] said,[H559] Call[H7121] me Zadok[H6659] the priest,[H3548] and Nathan[H5416] the prophet,[H5030] and Benaiah[H1141] the son[H1121] of Jehoiada.[H3077] And they came[H935] before[H6440] the king.[H4428]

33. The king[H4428] also said[H559] unto them, Take[H3947] with[H5973] you[H853] the servants[H5650] of your lord,[H113] and cause[H853] Solomon[H8010] my son[H1121] to ride[H7392] upon[H5921] mine own mule,[H6506] and bring him down[H3381] [H853] to[H413] Gihon: [H1521]

34. And let Zadok[H6659] the priest[H3548] and Nathan[H5416] the prophet[H5030] anoint[H4886] him there[H8033] king[H4428] over[H5921] Israel:[H3478] and blow[H8628] ye with the trumpet,[H7782] and say,[H559] God save[H2421] king[H4428] Solomon.[H8010]

35. Then ye shall come up[H5927] after[H310] him, that he may come[H935] and sit[H3427] upon[H5921] my throne;[H3678] for he[H1931] shall be king[H4427] in my stead:[H8478] and I have appointed[H6680] him to be[H1961] ruler[H5057] over[H5921] Israel[H3478] and over[H5921] Judah.[H3063]

36. And Benaiah[H1141] the son[H1121] of Jehoiada[H3077] answered[H6030] [H853] the king,[H4428] and said,[H559] Amen:[H543] the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of my lord[H113] the king[H4428] say[H559] so[H3651] too.

37. As[H834] the LORD[H3068] hath been[H1961] with[H5973] my lord[H113] the king,[H4428] even so[H3651] be[H1961] he with[H5973] Solomon,[H8010] and make his throne greater[H1431] [H853] [H3678] than the throne[H4480] [H3678] of my lord[H113] king[H4428] David.[H1732]

38. So Zadok[H6659] the priest,[H3548] and Nathan[H5416] the prophet,[H5030] and Benaiah[H1141] the son[H1121] of Jehoiada,[H3077] and the Cherethites,[H3774] and the Pelethites,[H6432] went down,[H3381] and caused[H853] Solomon[H8010] to ride[H7392] upon[H5921] king[H4428] David's[H1732] mule,[H6506] and brought[H1980] him to[H5921] Gihon.[H1521]

39. And Zadok[H6659] the priest[H3548] took[H3947] [H853] a horn[H7161] of oil[H8081] out of[H4480] the tabernacle,[H168] and anointed[H4886] [H853] Solomon.[H8010] And they blew[H8628] the trumpet;[H7782] and all[H3605] the people[H5971] said,[H559] God save[H2421] king[H4428] Solomon.[H8010]

40. And all[H3605] the people[H5971] came up[H5927] after[H310] him, and the people[H5971] piped[H2490] with pipes,[H2485] and rejoiced[H8056] with great[H1419] joy,[H8057] so that the earth[H776] rent[H1234] with the sound[H6963] of them.

41. And Adonijah[H138] and all[H3605] the guests[H7121] that[H834] were with[H854] him heard[H8085] it as they[H1992] had made an end[H3615] of eating.[H398] And when Joab[H3097] heard[H8085] [H853] the sound[H6963] of the trumpet,[H7782] he said,[H559] Wherefore[H4069] is this noise[H6963] of the city[H7151] being in an uproar?[H1993]

42. And while he yet[H5750] spoke,[H1696] behold,[H2009] Jonathan[H3129] the son[H1121] of Abiathar[H54] the priest[H3548] came:[H935] and Adonijah[H138] said[H559] unto him, Come in;[H935] for[H3588] thou[H859] art a valiant[H2428] man,[H376] and bringest good tidings.[H2896] [H1319]

43. And Jonathan[H3129] answered[H6030] and said[H559] to Adonijah,[H138] Verily[H61] our lord[H113] king[H4428] David[H1732] hath made Solomon king.[H4427] [H853] [H8010]

44. And the king[H4428] hath sent[H7971] with[H854] him[H853] Zadok[H6659] the priest,[H3548] and Nathan[H5416] the prophet,[H5030] and Benaiah[H1141] the son[H1121] of Jehoiada,[H3077] and the Cherethites,[H3774] and the Pelethites,[H6432] and they have caused him to ride[H7392] [H853] upon[H5921] the king's[H4428] mule: [H6506]

45. And Zadok[H6659] the priest[H3548] and Nathan[H5416] the prophet[H5030] have anointed[H4886] him king[H4428] in Gihon:[H1521] and they are come up[H5927] from thence[H4480] [H8033] rejoicing,[H8056] so that the city[H7151] rang[H1949] again. This[H1931] is the noise[H6963] that[H834] ye have heard.[H8085]

46. And also[H1571] Solomon[H8010] sitteth[H3427] on[H5921] the throne[H3678] of the kingdom.[H4410]

47. And moreover[H1571] the king's[H4428] servants[H5650] came[H935] to bless[H1288] [H853] our lord[H113] king[H4428] David,[H1732] saying,[H559] God[H430] make[H853] the name[H8034] of Solomon[H8010] better[H3190] than thy name,[H4480] [H8034] and make[H853] his throne[H3678] greater[H1431] than thy throne.[H4480] [H3678] And the king[H4428] bowed himself[H7812] upon[H5921] the bed.[H4904]

48. And also[H1571] thus[H3602] said[H559] the king,[H4428] Blessed[H1288] be the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of Israel,[H3478] which[H834] hath given[H5414] one to sit[H3427] on[H5921] my throne[H3678] this day,[H3117] mine eyes[H5869] even seeing[H7200] it.

49. And all[H3605] the guests[H7121] that[H834] were with Adonijah[H138] were afraid,[H2729] and rose up,[H6965] and went[H1980] every man[H376] his way.[H1870]

50. And Adonijah[H138] feared[H3372] because[H4480] [H6440] of Solomon,[H8010] and arose,[H6965] and went,[H1980] and caught hold[H2388] on the horns[H7161] of the altar.[H4196]

51. And it was told[H5046] Solomon,[H8010] saying,[H559] Behold,[H2009] Adonijah[H138] feareth[H3372] [H853] king[H4428] Solomon:[H8010] for, lo,[H2009] he hath caught hold[H270] on the horns[H7161] of the altar,[H4196] saying,[H559] Let king[H4428] Solomon[H8010] swear[H7650] unto me today[H3117] that he will not[H518] slay[H4191] [H853] his servant[H5650] with the sword.[H2719]

52. And Solomon[H8010] said,[H559] If[H518] he will show[H1961] himself a worthy[H2428] man,[H1121] there shall not[H3808] a hair of[H4480] [H8183] him fall[H5307] to the earth:[H776] but if[H518] wickedness[H7451] shall be found[H4672] in him, he shall die.[H4191]

53. So king[H4428] Solomon[H8010] sent,[H7971] and they brought him down[H3381] from[H4480] [H5921] the altar.[H4196] And he came[H935] and bowed himself[H7812] to king[H4428] Solomon:[H8010] and Solomon[H8010] said[H559] unto him, Go[H1980] to thine house.[H1004]
