1 Kings 1:1-3 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. King David was now very old. He couldn't keep warm even when blankets were spread over him.

2. So his servants spoke to him. They said, "You are our king and master. Please let us try to find a young virgin to help you. She can take care of you. She can lie down beside you. Then you can keep warm."

3. So David's servants looked all over Israel for a beautiful young woman. They found Abishag. She was from the town of Shunem. They brought her to the king.
