1 Kings 2:15-17

Tree of Life Version

¹⁵ Then he said, “You know that the kingdom was mine and that all Israel looked to me to be the king. However, the kingship has turned about and become my brother’s—for it was his from Adonai. ¹⁶ So now one petition I ask of you; do not deny me.”

“Speak!” she said to him.

¹⁷ Then he said, “Please, speak to King Solomon—for he won’t turn you down—to give me Abishag the Shunammite as wife.”
