1 Kings 1:7-9

New Life Version

⁷ He spoke with Joab the son of Zeruiah and with Abiathar the religious leader. And they followed Adonijah and helped him. ⁸ But Zadok the religious leader, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, Nathan the man of God, Shimei, Rei, and David’s strong men, were not with Adonijah.

⁹ Adonijah killed sheep and cattle and fat animals by the stone of Zoheleth, beside En-rogel. He asked all his brothers, the king’s sons and all the king’s men of Judah to come.
