1 Kings 2:10-18

1 Kings 2:10-18

[10] So David  slept  with his fathers,  and was buried  in the city  of David.  [11] And the days  that David  reigned  over Israel  were forty  years:  seven  years  reigned  he in Hebron,  and thirty  and three  years  reigned  he in Jerusalem.  [12] Then sat  Solomon  upon the throne  of David  his father;  was established  greatly.  [13] And Adonijah  the son  of Haggith  came  to Bathsheba  the mother  of Solomon.  And she said,  Comest  thou peaceably?  And he said,  Peaceably.  [14] He said  moreover, I have somewhat to say  unto thee. And she said,  Say on.  [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 the LORD.  [16] And now I ask  one  petition  of thee, deny  me  not. And she said  unto him, Say on.  [17] And he said,  I pray thee, unto Solomon  the king,  thee  nay,)  that he give  me Abishag  the Shunammite  to wife.  [18] And Bathsheba  said,  Well;  I will speak  for thee unto the king.
