Then Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon .
And she said ,
Comest thou peaceably ?
And he said ,
Peaceably .
asv @
1Kings:2:14 @
He said moreover ,
I have somewhat to say unto thee .
And she said ,
Say on .
asv @
1Kings:2:15 @
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 Jehovah .
asv @
1Kings:2:16 @
And now I ask one petition of thee ;
deny me not .
And she said unto him ,
Say on .
asv @
1Kings:2:17 @
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 .
asv @
1Kings:2:18 @
And Bath-sheba said ,
Well ;
I will speak for thee unto the king .
asv @
1Kings:2:19 @
Bath-sheba therefore went unto king Solomon ,
to speak unto him for Adonijah .
And the king rose up to meet her ,
and bowed himself unto her ,
and sat down on his throne ,
and caused a throne to be set for the king '
s mother ;
and she sat on his right hand .
asv @
1Kings:2:20 @
Then she said ,
I ask one small petition of thee ;
deny me not .
And the king said unto her ,
Ask on ,
my mother ;
for I will not deny thee .
asv @
1Kings:2:21 @
And she said ,
Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife .
asv @
1Kings:2:22 @
And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother ,
And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah ?
ask for him the kingdom also ;
for he is mine elder brother ;
even for him ,
and for Abiathar the priest ,
and for Joab the son of Zeruiah .
asv @
1Kings:2:23 @
Then king Solomon sware by Jehovah ,
saying ,
God do so to me ,
and more also ,
if Adonijah hath not spoken this word against his own life .
asv @
1Kings:2:24 @
Now therefore as Jehovah liveth ,
who hath established me ,
and set me on the throne of David my father ,
and who hath made me a house ,
as he promised ,
surely Adonijah shall be put to death this day .
asv @
1Kings:2:25 @
And king Solomon sent by Benaiah the son of Jehoiada ;
and he fell upon him ,
so that he died .
asv @
1Kings:2:26 @
And unto Abiathar the priest said the king ,
Get thee to Anathoth ,
unto thine own fields ;
for thou art worthy of death :
but I will not at this time put thee to death ,
because thou barest the ark of the Lord Jehovah before David my father ,
and because thou wast afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted .
asv @
1Kings:2:27 @
So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto Jehovah ,
that he might fulfil the word of Jehovah ,
which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh .
asv @
1Kings:2:28 @
And the tidings came to Joab ;
for Joab had turned after Adonijah ,
though he turned not after Absalom .
And Joab fled unto the Tent of Jehovah ,
and caught hold on the horns of the altar .
asv @
1Kings:2:29 @
And it was told king Solomon ,
Joab is fled unto the Tent of Jehovah ,
and ,
behold ,
he is by the altar .
Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada ,
saying ,
Go ,
fall upon him .
asv @
1Kings:2:30 @
And Benaiah came to the Tent of Jehovah ,
and said unto him ,
Thus saith the king ,
Come forth .
And he said ,
Nay ;
but I will die here .
And Benaiah brought the king word again ,
saying ,
Thus said Joab ,
and thus he answered me .
asv @
1Kings:2:31 @
And the king said unto him ,
Do as he hath said ,
and fall upon him ,
and bury him ;
that thou mayest take away the blood ,
which Joab shed without cause ,
from me and from my father '
s house .
asv @
1Kings:2:32 @
And Jehovah will return his blood upon his own head ,
because he fell upon two men more righteous and better than he ,
and slew them with the sword ,
and my father David knew it not ,
to wit ,
Abner the son of Ner ,
captain of the host of Israel ,
and Amasa the son of Jether ,
captain of the host of Judah .
asv @
1Kings:2:33 @
So shall their blood return upon the head of Joab ,
and upon the head of his seed for ever :
but unto David ,
and unto his seed ,
and unto his house ,
and unto his throne ,
shall there be peace for ever from Jehovah .
asv @
1Kings:2:34 @
Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up ,
and fell upon him ,
and slew him ;
and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness .
asv @
1Kings:2:35 @
And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the host ;
and Zadok the priest did the king put in the room of Abiathar .
asv @
1Kings:2:36 @
And the king sent and called for Shimei ,
and said unto him ,
Build thee a house in Jerusalem ,
and dwell there ,
and go not forth thence any whither .
asv @
1Kings:2:37 @
For on the day thou goest out ,
and passest over the brook Kidron ,
know thou for certain that thou shalt surely die :
thy blood shall be upon thine own head .
asv @
1Kings:2:38 @
And Shimei said unto the king ,
The saying is good :
as my lord the king hath said ,
so will thy servant do .
And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days .
asv @
1Kings:2:39 @
And it came to pass at the end of three years ,
that two of the servants of Shimei ran away unto Achish ,
son of Maacah ,
king of Gath .
And they told Shimei ,
saying ,
Behold ,
thy servants are in Gath .
asv @
1Kings:2:40 @
And Shimei arose ,
and saddled his ass ,
and went to Gath to Achish ,
to seek his servants ;
and Shimei went ,
and brought his servants from Gath .
asv @
1Kings:2:41 @
And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath ,
and was come again .
asv @
1Kings:2:42 @
And the king sent and called for Shimei ,
and said unto him ,
Did I not adjure thee by Jehovah ,
and protest unto thee ,
saying ,
Know for certain ,
that on the day thou goest out ,
and walkest abroad any whither ,
thou shalt surely die ?
and thou saidst unto me ,
The saying that I have heard is good .
asv @
1Kings:2:43 @
Why then hast thou not kept the oath of Jehovah ,
and the commandment that I have charged thee with ?
asv @
1Kings:2:44 @
The king said moreover to Shimei ,
Thou knowest all the wickedness which thy heart is privy to ,
that thou didst to David my father :
therefore Jehovah shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head .
asv @
1Kings:2:45 @
But king Solomon shall be blessed ,
and the throne of David shall be established before Jehovah for ever .
asv @
1Kings:2:46 @
So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada ;
and he went out ,
and fell upon him ,
so that he died .
And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon .
