Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁴² He was still speaking when Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest,^(A) suddenly arrived. Adonijah said, “Come in, for you are an excellent man, and you must be bringing good news.”^(B)

⁴³ “Unfortunately not,” Jonathan answered him. “Our lord King David has made Solomon king. ⁴⁴ And with Solomon, the king has sent Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and they have had him ride on the king’s mule.
