*
And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon .
And she said ,
Comest thou peaceably ?
And he said ,
Peaceably .
*
He said moreover ,
I have somewhat to say unto thee .
And she said ,
Say on .
*
And he said ,
Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine ,
and that all Israel set their faces on me ,
that I should reign :
howbeit the kingdom is turned about ,
and is become my brother '
s :
for it was his from the LORD .
*
And now I ask one petition of thee ,
deny me not .
And she said unto him ,
Say on .
*
And he said ,
Speak ,
I pray thee ,
unto Solomon the king , (
for he will not say thee nay ,)
that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife .
*
And Bathsheba said ,
Well ;
I will speak for thee unto the king .
