1 Kings 2:25-27
English Standard Version
25 So King Solomon sent (A)Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he struck him down, and he died.
26 And to Abiathar the priest the king said, “Go to (B)Anathoth, to your estate, for you deserve death. But I will not at this time put you to death, (C)because you carried the ark of the Lord God before David my father, (D)and because you shared in all my father's affliction.” 27 (E)So Solomon expelled Abiathar from being priest to the Lord, thus fulfilling (F)the word of the Lord that he had spoken concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.
