1 Kings 2:19-21

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁹ So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him on behalf of Adonijah. The king met her and bowed down to her. Then he sat on his throne and also set up a throne for the king’s mother, and she sat at his right hand.

²⁰ She said, “I am asking you for one small request. Do not turn me down.”

The king answered her, “Ask, mother, for I will not turn you down.”

²¹ She said, “Please give Abishag from Shunem to your brother Adonijah as his wife.”
