*
And Adonijah feared because of Solomon ,
and arose ,
and went ,
and caught hold on the horns of the altar .
*
And it was told Solomon ,
saying ,
Behold ,
Adonijah feareth king Solomon :
for ,
lo ,
he hath caught hold on the horns of the altar ,
saying ,
Let king Solomon swear unto me to day that he will not slay his servant with the sword .
*
And Solomon said ,
If he will shew himself a worthy man ,
there shall not an hair of him fall to the earth :
but if wickedness shall be found in him ,
he shall die .
*
So king Solomon sent ,
and they brought him down from the altar .
And he came and bowed himself to king Solomon :
and Solomon said unto him ,
Go to thine house .
