1 Kings 1:6-8

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁶ His father had never ^[a]crossed him at any time by asking, “Why have you done so?” And he was also a very handsome man, and ^[b](A)he was born after Absalom. ^7 [c]He had conferred with ^(B)Joab the son of Zeruiah and with ^(C)Abiathar the priest; and following ^(D)Adonijah they helped him. ⁸ But ^(E)Zadok the priest, ^(F)Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, ^(G)Nathan the prophet, ^(H)Shimei, Rei, and ^(I)the mighty men who belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.
