1 Kings 2:13-46 - ESV Bible - Then Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba...

Solomon's Reign Established

13 Then Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, ¹"Do you come peacefully?" He said, "Peacefully."

14 Then he said, "I have something to say to you." She said, "Speak."

15 He said, "You know that ²the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel fully expected me to reign. However, the kingdom has turned about and become my brother's, ³for it was his from the LORD.

16 And now I have one request to make of you; do not refuse me." She said to him, "Speak."

17 And he said, "Please ask King Solomon--he will not refuse you--to give me ⁴Abishag the Shunammite as my wife."

18 Bathsheba said, "Very well; I will speak for you to the king."

19 So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him on behalf of Adonijah. And the king rose to meet her and bowed down to her. Then he sat on his throne and had a seat brought for the king's mother, ⁵and she sat on his right.

20 Then she said, "I have one small request to make of you; do not refuse me." And the king said to her, "Make your request, my mother, for I will not refuse you."

21 She said, "Let ⁶Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah your brother as his wife."

22 King Solomon answered his mother, "And why do you ask ⁷Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also, ⁸for he is my older brother, and on his side ⁹are Abiathar^a the priest and Joab the son of Zeruiah."

23 Then King Solomon swore by the LORD, saying, ¹⁰"God do so to me and more also if this word does not cost Adonijah his life!

24 Now therefore ¹¹as the LORD lives, who has established me and placed me on the throne of David my father, and who has made me a house, ¹²as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death today."

25 So King Solomon sent ¹³Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he struck him down, and he died.

26 And to Abiathar the priest the king said, "Go to ¹⁴Anathoth, to your estate, for you deserve death. But I will not at this time put you to death, ¹⁵because you carried the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, ¹⁶and because you shared in all my father's affliction."

27 ¹⁷So Solomon expelled Abiathar from being priest to the LORD, thus fulfilling ¹⁸the word of the LORD that he had spoken concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.

28 When the news came to Joab--for Joab ¹⁹had supported Adonijah although ²⁰he had not supported Absalom--Joab fled to the tent of the LORD and caught hold of the ²¹horns of the altar.

29 And when it was told King Solomon, "Joab has fled to the tent of the LORD, and behold, he is beside the altar," Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, "Go, strike him down."

30 So Benaiah came to the tent of the LORD and said to him, "The king commands, 'Come out.'" But he said, "No, I will die here." Then Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, "Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me."

31 The king replied to him, ²²"Do as he has said, strike him down and bury him, ²³and thus take away from me and from my father's house the guilt for the blood that Joab shed without cause.

32 The LORD will ²⁴bring back his bloody deeds on his own head, because, without the knowledge of my father David, he attacked and killed with the sword two men ²⁵more righteous and better than himself, ²⁶Abner the son of Ner, commander of the army of Israel, and ²⁷Amasa the son of Jether, commander of the army of Judah.

33 ²⁸So shall their blood come back on the head of Joab and on the head of his descendants forever. But for David and for his descendants and for his house and for his throne there shall be peace from the LORD forevermore."

34 Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up and struck him down and put him to death. And he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.

35 ²⁹The king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada over the army in place of Joab, and the king put ³⁰Zadok the priest ³¹in the place of Abiathar.

36 Then the king sent and summoned ³²Shimei and said to him, "Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and dwell there, and do not go out from there to any place whatever.

37 For on the day you go out and cross ³³the brook Kidron, know for certain that you shall die. ³⁴Your blood shall be on your own head."

38 And Shimei said to the king, "What you say is good; as my lord the king has said, so will your servant do." So Shimei lived in Jerusalem many days.

39 But it happened at the end of three years that two of Shimei's servants ran away to ³⁵Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And when it was told Shimei, "Behold, your servants are in Gath,"

40 Shimei arose and saddled a donkey and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants. Shimei went and brought his servants from Gath.

41 And when Solomon was told that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and returned,

42 the king sent and summoned Shimei and said to him, "Did I not make you swear by the LORD and solemnly warn you, saying, 'Know for certain that on the day you go out and go to any place whatever, you shall die'? And you said to me, 'What you say is good; I will obey.'

43 Why then have you not kept your oath to the LORD and the commandment with which I commanded you?"

44 The king also said to Shimei, "You know in your own heart ³⁶all the harm that you did to David my father. So the LORD will ³⁷bring back your harm on your own head.

45 But King Solomon shall be blessed, ³⁸and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD forever."

46 Then the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck him down, and he died. ³⁹So the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
