nkjv@2Samuel:12:9 @ Why have you despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in His sight? You have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword; you have taken his wife to be your wife, and have killed him with the sword of the people of Ammon.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:42 @ So all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, "Because the king is a close relative of ours. Why then are you angry over this matter? Have we ever eaten at the king's expense? Or has he given us any gift?"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:43 @ And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, "We have ten shares in the king; therefore we also have more right to David than you.

nkjv@1Kings:2:22 @ And King Solomon answered and said to his mother, "Now why do you ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also--for he is my older brother--for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah."

nkjv@1Kings:2:43 @ Why then have you not kept the oath of the LORD and the commandment that I gave you?"
