1 Now king H4428 David H1732 MMS was old H2204 and stricken H935 VQPMS in years H3117 BD-NMP ; and they covered H3680 him with clothes H899 , but he got no heat H3808 W-NPAR .
2 Wherefore his servants H5650 said H559 W-VQY3MP unto him , Let there be sought H1245 for my lord H113 the king H4428 D-NMS a young H5291 virgin H1330 : and let her stand H5975 before H6440 L-CMP the king H4428 D-NMS , and let her cherish H5532 him , and let her lie H7901 in thy bosom H2436 , that my lord H113 the king H4428 may get heat H2552 .
3 So they sought H1245 for a fair H3303 AFS damsel H5291 throughout all H3605 the coasts H1366 CMS of Israel H3478 , and found H4672 Abishag H49 a Shunammite H7767 , and brought H935 her to the king H4428 .
4 And the damsel H5291 was very H5704 PREP fair H3303 AFS , and cherished H5532 the king H4428 , and ministered H8334 to him : but the king H4428 knew H3045 her not H3808 NADV .
5 Then Adonijah H138 the son H1121 CMS of Haggith H2294 exalted himself H4984 , saying H559 L-VQFC , I H589 PPRO-1MS will be king H4427 : and he prepared H6213 W-VQY3MS him chariots H7393 and horsemen H6571 , and fifty H2572 W-MMP men H376 NMS to run H7323 before H6440 him .
6 And his father H1 CMS-3MS had not H3808 W-NPAR displeased H6087 him at any time H3117 in saying H559 L-VQFC , Why H4069 IPRO hast thou done H6213 VQQ2MS so H3602 ADV ? and he H1931 PPRO-3MS also H1571 W-CONJ was a very H3966 ADV goodly H2896 AMS man ; and his mother bore H3205 him after H310 PREP Absalom H53 .
7 And he conferred H1697 with H5973 PREP Joab H3097 the son H1121 of Zeruiah H6870 , and with H5973 Abiathar H54 the priest H3548 : and they following H310 PREP Adonijah H138 helped H5826 him .
8 But Zadok H6659 the priest H3548 , and Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 CMS of Jehoiada H3077 , and Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 , and Shimei H8096 , and Rei H7472 , and the mighty men H1368 which H834 RPRO belonged to David H1732 L-NAME , were H1961 VQQ3MP not H3808 NADV with H5973 PREP Adonijah H138 .
9 And Adonijah H138 slew H2076 sheep H6629 NMS and oxen H1241 W-NMS and fat cattle H4806 by H5973 PREP the stone H68 GFS of Zoheleth H2120 , which H834 RPRO is by H681 En H5883 - rogel , and called H7121 W-VQY3MS all H3605 NMS his brethren H251 NMP-3MS the king H4428 D-NMS \'s sons H1121 , and all H3605 NMS the men H376 CMP of Judah H3063 the king H4428 \'s servants H5650 :
10 But Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 , and Benaiah H1141 , and the mighty men H1368 , and Solomon H8010 MMS his brother H251 CMS-3MS , he called H7121 not H3808 NADV .
11 Wherefore Nathan H5416 spoke H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Bath H1339 - sheba the mother H517 GFS of Solomon H8010 MMS , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Hast thou not H3808 ADV heard H8085 that H3588 CONJ Adonijah H138 the son H1121 CMS of Haggith H2294 doth reign H4427 , and David H1732 our lord H113 knoweth H3045 it not H3808 NADV ?
12 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore come H1980 , let me , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , give H3289 thee counsel H6098 NFS , that thou mayest save H4422 thine own life H5315 GFS , and the life H5315 GFS of thy son H1121 Solomon H8010 .
13 Go H1980 and get thee in H935 unto H413 PREP king H4428 D-NMS David H1732 MMS , and say H559 unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Didst not H3808 I-NPAR thou H859 PPRO-2MS , my lord H113 , O king H4428 D-NMS , swear H7650 unto thine handmaid H519 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Assuredly H3588 CONJ Solomon H8010 MMS thy son H1121 shall reign H4427 after H310 me , and he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS shall sit H3427 upon H5921 PREP my throne H3678 ? why H4069 then doth Adonijah H138 reign H4427 ?
14 Behold H2009 IJEC , while thou yet H5750 talkest H1696 there H8033 ADV with H5973 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS , I H589 W-PPRO-1MS also will come in H935 VQI1MS after H310 thee , and confirm H4390 thy words H1697 .
15 And Bath H1339 - sheba went in H935 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS into the chamber H2315 : and the king H4428 was very H3966 ADV old H2204 ; and Abishag H49 the Shunammite H7767 ministered unto H8334 the king H4428 .
16 And Bath H1339 - sheba bowed H6915 , and did obeisance H7812 unto the king H4428 . And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS , What H4100 IPRO wouldest thou ?
17 And she said H559 W-VQY3FS unto him , My lord H113 , thou H859 PPRO-2MS swarest H7650 by the LORD H3068 thy God H430 CMP-2MS unto thine handmaid H519 , saying , Assuredly H3588 CONJ Solomon H8010 MMS thy son H1121 shall reign H4427 after H310 me , and he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS shall sit H3427 upon H5921 PREP my throne H3678 .
18 And now H6258 W-ADV , behold H2009 IJEC , Adonijah H138 reigneth H4427 ; and now H6258 W-ADV , my lord H113 the king H4428 D-NMS , thou knowest H3045 it not H3808 NADV :
19 And he hath slain H2076 oxen H7794 CMS and fat cattle H4806 and sheep H6629 in abundance H7230 LD-NMS , and hath called H7121 W-VQY3MS all H3605 L-CMS the sons H1121 of the king H4428 D-NMS , and Abiathar H54 the priest H3548 , and Joab H3097 the captain H8269 of the host H6635 : but Solomon H8010 thy servant H5650 hath he not H3808 NADV called H7121 W-VQY3MS .
20 And thou H859 W-PPRO-2MS , my lord H113 , O king H4428 D-NMS , the eyes H5869 CMD of all H3605 CMS Israel H3478 are upon H5921 PREP thee , that thou shouldest tell H5046 L-VHFC them who H4310 IPRO shall sit H3427 on H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of my lord H113 the king H4428 D-NMS after H310 him .
21 Otherwise it shall come to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS , when my lord H113 the king H4428 D-NMS shall sleep H7901 with H5973 PREP his fathers H1 , that I H589 PPRO-1MS and my son H1121 Solomon H8010 MMS shall be counted H1961 W-VQQ3MS offenders H2400 .
22 And , lo H2009 IJEC , while she yet H5750 talked H1696 with H5973 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS , Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 also came in H935 .
23 And they told H5046 the king H4428 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Behold H2009 IJEC Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 . And when he was come in H935 W-VQY3MS before H6440 L-CMP the king H4428 D-NMS , he bowed himself H7812 before the king H4428 with H5921 PREP his face H639 to the ground H776 NFS-3FS .
24 And Nathan H5416 said H559 W-VQY3MS , My lord H113 , O king H4428 D-NMS , hast thou H859 PPRO-2MS said H559 W-VQY3MS , Adonijah H138 shall reign H4427 after H310 me , and he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS shall sit H3427 upon H5921 PREP my throne H3678 ?
25 For H3588 CONJ he is gone down H3381 VQQ3MS this day H3117 D-AMS , and hath slain H2076 oxen H7794 CMS and fat cattle H4806 and sheep H6629 in abundance H7230 LD-NMS , and hath called H7121 W-VQY3MS all H3605 L-CMS the king H4428 D-NMS \'s sons H1121 , and the captains H8269 of the host H6635 , and Abiathar H54 the priest H3548 ; and , behold H2009 , they eat H398 and drink H8354 W-VQPMP before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him , and say H559 W-VQY3MP , God save H2421 king H4428 D-NMS Adonijah H138 .
26 But me , even me H589 thy servant H5650 , and Zadok H6659 the priest H3548 , and Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 CMS of Jehoiada H3077 , and thy servant H5650 Solomon H8010 , hath he not H3808 NADV called H7121 .
27 Is this H2088 D-PMS thing H1697 D-NMS done H1961 by my lord H113 the king H4428 D-NMS , and thou hast not H3808 W-NPAR showed it unto H3045 thy servant H5650 , who H4310 IPRO should sit H3427 on H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of my lord H113 the king H4428 D-NMS after H310 him ?
28 Then king H4428 D-NMS David H1732 MMS answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Call H7121 me Bath H1339 - sheba . And she came into H935 W-VQY3FS the king H4428 D-NMS \'s presence H6440 L-CMP , and stood H5975 before H6440 L-CMP the king H4428 .
29 And the king H4428 D-NMS swore H7650 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , As the LORD H3068 EDS liveth H2416 AMS , that H834 RPRO hath redeemed H6299 VQQ3MS my soul H5315 CFS-1MS out of all H3605 M-CMS distress H6869 NFS ,
30 Even H3588 CONJ as H834 K-RPRO I swore H7650 unto thee by the LORD H3068 God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Assuredly H3588 CONJ Solomon H8010 MMS thy son H1121 shall reign H4427 after H310 me , and he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS shall sit H3427 upon H5921 PREP my throne H3678 in my stead H8478 ; even H3588 CONJ so H3651 ADV will I certainly do H6213 this H2088 D-PMS day H3117 D-AMS .
31 Then Bath H1339 - sheba bowed H6915 with her face H639 NMD to the earth H776 GFS , and did reverence H7812 to the king H4428 , and said H559 W-VQY3FS , Let my lord H113 king H4428 D-NMS David H1732 MMS live H2421 forever H5769 L-NMS .
32 And king H4428 D-NMS David H1732 MMS said H559 W-VQY3MS , Call H7121 me Zadok H6659 the priest H3548 , and Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 , and Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 . And they came H935 W-VQY3MP before H6440 L-CMP the king H4428 .
33 The king H4428 D-NMS also said H559 W-VQY3MS unto them , Take H3947 with H5973 PREP-3MP you the servants H5650 of your lord H113 , and cause Solomon H8010 MMS my son H1121 to ride H7392 upon H5921 PREP mine own mule H6506 , and bring him down H3381 to H413 PREP Gihon H1521 :
34 And let Zadok H6659 the priest H3548 and Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 anoint H4886 him there H8033 ADV king H4428 L-CMS over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 : and blow H8628 ye with the trumpet H7782 , and say H559 , God save H2421 king H4428 D-NMS Solomon H8010 .
35 Then ye shall come up H5927 after H310 PREP-3MS him , that he may come H935 and sit H3427 upon H5921 PREP my throne H3678 ; for he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS shall be king H4427 in my stead H8478 : and I have appointed H6680 him to be H1961 L-VQFC ruler H5057 NMS over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 and over H5921 PREP Judah H3063 .
36 And Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 CMS of Jehoiada H3077 answered H6030 W-VQY3MS the king H4428 D-NMS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Amen H543 : the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of my lord H113 the king H4428 say H559 W-VQY3MS so H3651 ADV too .
37 As H834 K-RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS hath been H1961 VQQ3MS with H5973 PREP my lord H113 the king H4428 D-NMS , even so H3651 ADV be H1961 he with H5973 PREP Solomon H8010 MMS , and make his throne greater H1431 than the throne H3678 of my lord H113 king H4428 D-NMS David H1732 .
38 So Zadok H6659 the priest H3548 , and Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 , and Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 CMS of Jehoiada H3077 , and the Cherethites H3774 , and the Pelethites H6432 , went down H3381 W-VQY3MS , and caused Solomon H8010 MMS to ride H7392 upon H5921 PREP king H4428 D-NMS David H1732 MMS \'s mule H6506 , and brought H1980 him to H5921 PREP Gihon H1521 .
39 And Zadok H6659 the priest H3548 took H3947 W-VQY3MS a horn H7161 of oil H8081 out of H4480 PREP the tabernacle H168 , and anointed H4886 Solomon H8010 MMS . And they blew H8628 the trumpet H7782 ; and all H3605 NMS the people H5971 said H559 , God save H2421 king H4428 D-NMS Solomon H8010 .
40 And all H3605 CMS the people H5971 came up H5927 after H310 him , and the people H5971 piped H2490 with pipes H2485 , and rejoiced H8056 with great H1419 AFS joy H8057 , so that the earth H776 D-GFS rent H1234 with the sound H6963 of them .
41 And Adonijah H138 and all H3605 W-CMS the guests H7121 that H834 RPRO were with H854 PREP-3MS him heard H8085 it as they H1992 W-PPRO-3MP had made an end H3615 of eating H398 L-VQFC .

43 And Jonathan H3129 answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MS to Adonijah H138 , Verily H61 our lord H113 king H4428 David H1732 MMS hath made Solomon king H4427 .
44 And the king H4428 D-NMS hath sent H7971 W-VQY3MS with H854 PREP-3MS him Zadok H6659 the priest H3548 , and Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 , and Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 , and the Cherethites H3774 , and the Pelethites H6432 , and they have caused him to ride H7392 upon H5921 PREP the king H4428 \'s mule H6506 :
