1 Kings 2:19-21
New International Reader's Version
19 So Bathsheba went to King Solomon. She went to him to speak for Adonijah. The king stood up to greet her. He bowed down to her. Then he sat down on his throne. He had a throne brought for his mother. She sat down at his right side.
20 “I have one small favor to ask of you,” she said. “Don’t say no to me.”

21 She said, “Let your brother Adonijah marry Abishag, the Shunammite.”
