10. So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.
11. And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.
12. Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.
13. And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Come you peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.
14. He said moreover, I have somewhat to say unto you. And she said, Say on.
15. And he said, You know that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: however the kingdom has turned about, and has become my brother's: for it was his from the LORD.
16. And now I ask one petition of you, deny me not. And she said unto him, Say on.
17. And he said, Speak, I pray you, unto Solomon the king, (for he will not say nay to you,) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to be my wife.
18. And Bath-sheba said, Well; I will speak for you unto the king.
