1 Kings 1:4-6

International Standard Version

⁴ The young woman was absolutely beautiful. She served the king and was very useful to him. The king was not sexually involved with her.

⁵ Meanwhile, about this time Haggith’s son Adonijah began to seek a reputation for himself and decided,^[a] “I’m going to be king!” So he prepared chariots, cavalry, and 50 soldiers to serve as a security detail to guard him.^{[b] 6} His father had never challenged him at any time during his life by asking him, “Why are you acting like this?” Adonijah^[c] was very handsome and had been born after Absalom.
