^19 (A)He has sacrificed oxen, fattened cattle, and sheep in abundance, and has invited all the sons of the king, ^(B)Abiathar the priest, and Joab the commander of the army, but ^(C)Solomon your servant he has not invited.

⁹ Adonijah sacrificed sheep, oxen, and fattened cattle by the Serpent's Stone, which is beside ^(A)En-rogel, and he invited all his brothers, the king's sons, and all the royal officials of Judah,
