1 Kings 2:20-22

Modern English Version

²⁰ Then she said, “I desire one small petition of you. Please do not deny me.”

And the king said to her, “Ask, my mother, for I will not refuse you.”

²¹ She said, “Let Abishag the Shunammite be given as a wife to Adonijah your brother.”

²² King Solomon answered his mother, “Now why do you ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also, for he is my elder brother. Ask not only for him, but also for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.”
