1 Kings 2:15-17

The Voice

Adonijah: ¹⁵ You are aware that all the kingdom was in my possession and that everyone in Israel believed I was going to be king; but instead, my brother Solomon has received the kingdom from the Eternal One. ¹⁶ I have one thing to ask you, and I beg you not to ignore it.

Bathsheba: Go on.

Adonijah: ¹⁷ Please, I ask that you go to King Solomon, for he adores you and will not ignore your request. Ask him to give me Abishag the Shunammite, the young woman who nursed my father before he died. I want her as my wife.
