1 Kings 2:17-19

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁷ Adonijah said, “I know that King Solomon will do whatever you ask. So please ask him to let me marry Abishag, the woman from Shunem.”

¹⁸ Then Bathsheba said, “Very well, I will speak to the king for you.”

¹⁹ So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to talk with him. When the king saw her, he stood up, bowed before her, and then sat back down. He told some servants to bring another throne for his mother, and she sat down at his right side.
