Now the days H3117 of David H1732 drew nigh H7126 that he should die H4191 L-VQFC ; and he charged H6680 W-VPY3MS Solomon H8010 MMS his son H1121 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
I H595 PPRO-1MS go H1980 the way H1870 B-NMS of all H3605 NMS the earth H776 D-GFS : be thou strong H2388 therefore , and show H1961 thyself a man H376 ;
And keep H8104 the charge H4931 of the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS , to walk H1980 L-VQFC in his ways H1870 , to keep H8104 L-VQFC his statutes H2708 , and his commandments H4687 , and his judgments H4941 , and his testimonies H5715 , as it is written H3789 in the law H8451 B-CFS of Moses H4872 , that H4616 L-CONJ thou mayest prosper H7919 in all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO thou doest H6213 VQY2MS , and whithersoever H3605 NMS thou turnest H6437 thyself :
That H4616 L-CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS may continue H6965 his word H1697 which H834 RPRO he spoke H1696 VPQ3MS concerning H5921 M-PREP me , saying H559 L-VQFC , If H518 PART thy children H1121 CMP-2MS take heed H8104 to their way H1870 CMS-3MP , to walk H1980 L-VQFC before H6440 L-CMP me in truth H571 with all H3605 B-CMS their heart H3824 and with all H3605 WB-CMS their soul H5315 CFS-3MP , there shall not H3808 ADV fail H3772 VNI3MS thee H559 L-VQFC (said he) a man H376 NMS on M-PREP the throne H3678 of Israel H3478 LMS .
Moreover H1571 W-CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS knowest H3045 VQQ2MS also what H834 RPRO Joab H3097 the son H1121 CMS of Zeruiah H6870 did H6213 VQQ3MS to me , [ and ] what H834 RPRO he did H6213 VQQ3MS to the two H8147 L-CMD captains H8269 CMP of the hosts H6635 of Israel H3478 , unto Abner H74 the son H1121 CMS of Ner H5369 , and unto Amasa H6021 the son H1121 CMS of Jether H3500 , whom he slew H2026 , and shed H7760 W-VQY3MS the blood H1818 of war H4421 NFS in peace H7965 , and put H5414 W-VQQ3MS the blood H1818 CMP of war H4421 NFS upon his girdle H2290 that H834 RPRO [ was ] about his loins H4975 , and in his shoes H5275 that H834 RPRO [ were ] on his feet H7272 .
But show H6213 VQY2MS kindness H2617 NMS unto the sons H1121 of Barzillai H1271 the Gileadite H1569 , and let them be H1961 W-VQQ3MS of those that eat H398 at thy table H7979 : for H3588 CONJ so H3651 ADV they came H7126 to H413 PREP-1MS me when I fled H1272 because H6440 M-CMP of Absalom H53 thy brother H251 .
And , behold H2009 IJEC , [ thou ] [ hast ] with H5973 PREP-2MS thee Shimei H8096 the son H1121 CMS of Gera H1617 , a Benjamite H1145 of Bahurim H980 , which H1931 W-PPRO-3MS cursed H7043 me with a grievous H4834 curse H7045 in the day H3117 B-NMS when I went H1980 to Mahanaim H4266 : but he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS came down H3381 VQQ3MS to meet H7125 me at Jordan H3383 D-EFS , and I swore H7650 to him by the LORD H3068 , saying H559 L-VQFC , I will not H518 PART put thee to death H4191 with the sword H2719 .
Now H6258 W-ADV therefore hold him not guiltless H5352 : for H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS [ art ] a wise H2450 AMS man H376 NMS , and knowest H3045 what H834 RPRO thou oughtest to do H6213 VQY2MS unto him ; but his hoar head H7872 bring thou down H3381 to the grave H7585 with blood H1818 .
And the days H3117 that H834 RPRO David H1732 MMS reigned H4427 over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 [ were ] forty H705 MMP years H8141 NFS : seven H7651 MFS years H8141 NFP reigned H4427 he in Hebron H2275 B-EFS , and thirty H7970 MMP and three H7969 years H8141 reigned H4427 he in Jerusalem H3389 .
Then sat H3427 VQQ3MS Solomon H8010 upon H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of David H1732 MMS his father H1 CMS-3MS ; and his kingdom H4438 was established H3559 greatly H3966 ADV .
And Adonijah H138 the son H1121 CMS of Haggith H2294 came H935 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Bath H1339 - sheba the mother H517 GFS of Solomon H8010 MMS . And she said H559 W-VQY3MS , Comest H935 thou peaceably H7965 ? And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Peaceably H7965 .
And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Thou H859 knowest H3045 that H3588 CONJ the kingdom H4410 was H1961 VQQ3FS mine , and [ that ] all H3605 Israel H3478 set H7760 VQQ3MP their faces H6440 CMP-3MP on H5921 me , that I should reign H4427 : howbeit the kingdom H4410 is turned about H5437 , and is become H1961 W-VQY3FS my brother H251 \'s : for H3588 CONJ it was H1961 VQQ3FS his from the LORD H3068 .
And now H6258 W-ADV I H595 PPRO-1MS ask H7592 one H259 OFS petition H7596 of thee , deny H7725 me not H408 NPAR . And she said H559 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Say on H1696 .
And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Speak H559 W-VQY3MS , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , unto Solomon H8010 the king H4428 D-NMS , ( CONJ for CONJ he will not H3808 ADV say thee nay H7725 VHY3MS , ) that he give H5414 me Abishag H49 the Shunammite H7767 to wife H802 .
And Bath H1339 - sheba said H559 W-VQY3FS , Well H2896 AMS ; I H595 PPRO-1MS will speak H1696 VPY1MS for H5921 PREP-2MS thee unto H413 PREP the king H4428 .
Bath H1339 - sheba therefore went H935 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP king H4428 D-NMS Solomon H8010 MMS , to speak H1696 unto him for H5921 PREP Adonijah H138 . And the king H4428 D-NMS rose up H6965 W-VQY3MS to meet H7122 her , and bowed himself H7812 unto her , and sat down H3427 W-VQY3MS on H5921 PREP his throne H3678 , and caused a seat H3678 to be set H7760 W-VQY3MS for the king H4428 D-NMS \'s mother H517 ; and she sat H3427 on his right hand H3225 .
Then she said H559 W-VQY3FS , I H595 PPRO-1MS desire H7592 one H259 OFS small H6996 petition H7596 of H4480 thee ; [ I ] [ pray ] [ thee ] , say me not nay H408 NPAR . And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 unto her , Ask on H7592 , my mother H517 CFS-1MS : for H3588 CONJ I will not H3808 ADV say thee nay H7725 .
And king H4428 D-NMS Solomon H8010 MMS answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto his mother H517 , And why H4100 dost thou H859 ask H7592 Abishag H49 the Shunammite H7767 for Adonijah H138 ? ask H7592 for him the kingdom H4410 also ; for H3588 CONJ he H1931 PPRO-3MS [ is ] mine H4480 M-PREP-1MS elder H1419 D-AMS brother H251 ; even for him , and for Abiathar H54 the priest H3548 , and for Joab H3097 the son H1121 of Zeruiah H6870 .
Then king H4428 D-NMS Solomon H8010 MMS swore H7650 by the LORD H3068 , saying H559 L-VQFC , God H430 EDP do H6213 so H3541 to me , and more H3254 also H3541 , if H3588 CONJ Adonijah H138 have not spoken H1696 VPQ3MS this H2088 D-PMS word H1697 D-NMS against his own life H5315 .
Now H6258 W-ADV therefore , [ as ] the LORD H3068 EDS liveth H2416 AMS , which H834 RPRO hath established H3559 me , and set H3427 me on H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of David H1732 MMS my father H1 CMS-1MS , and who H834 RPRO hath made H6213 me a house H1004 NMS , as H834 RPRO he promised H1696 , Adonijah H138 shall be put to death H4191 this day H3117 D-AMS .
And king H4428 D-NMS Solomon H8010 MMS sent H7971 W-VQY3MS by the hand H3027 B-CFS of Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 CMS of Jehoiada H3077 ; and he fell H6293 upon him that he died H4191 W-VQY3MS .
And unto Abiathar H54 the priest H3548 said H559 VQQ3MS the king H4428 D-NMS , Get H1980 VQI2MS thee to Anathoth H6068 , unto H5921 PREP thine own fields H7704 ; for H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS [ art ] worthy H376 NMS of death H4194 NMS : but I will not H3808 NADV at this H2088 D-PMS time H3117 put thee to death H4191 , because H3588 CONJ thou didst bear H5375 the ark H727 of the Lord H136 EDS GOD H3068 before H6440 L-CMP David H1732 MMS my father H1 CMS-1MS , and because H3588 CONJ thou hast been afflicted H6031 in all H3605 wherein H834 RPRO my father H1 was afflicted H6031 .
So Solomon H8010 MMS thrust out H1644 W-VPQ3MS Abiathar H54 from being priest H3548 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS ; that he might fulfill H4390 L-VPFC the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , which H834 RPRO he spoke H1696 VPQ3MS concerning H5921 PREP the house H1004 CMS of Eli H5941 in Shiloh H7887 .
Then tidings H8052 came H935 VQQ3FS to H5704 PREP Joab H3097 : for H3588 CONJ Joab H3097 had turned H5186 VQQ3MS after H310 PREP Adonijah H138 , though he turned H5186 VQQ3MS not H3808 NADV after H310 Absalom H53 . And Joab H3097 fled H5127 unto H413 PREP the tabernacle H168 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and caught hold H2388 on the horns H7161 of the altar H4196 .
And it was told H5046 king H4428 Solomon H8010 MMS that H3588 CONJ Joab H3097 was fled H5127 unto H413 PREP the tabernacle H168 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS ; and , behold H2009 IJEC , [ he ] [ is ] by H681 the altar H4196 D-NMS . Then Solomon H8010 MMS sent H7971 W-VQY3MS Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 CMS of Jehoiada H3077 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Go H1980 VQI2MS , fall H6293 upon him .
And Benaiah H1141 came H935 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP the tabernacle H168 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Thus H3541 saith H559 W-VQY3MS the king H4428 D-NMS , Come forth H3318 VQI2MS . And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Nay H3808 NPAR ; but H3588 CONJ I will die H4191 VQY1MS here H6311 . And Benaiah H1141 brought H7725 W-VHY3MS the king H4428 D-NMS word H1697 VQPMS again , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Thus H3541 said H1696 Joab H3097 , and thus H3541 he answered H6030 me .
And the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Do H6213 VQI2MS as H834 RPRO he hath said H1696 VPQ3MS , and fall H6293 upon him , and bury H6912 him ; that thou mayest take away H5493 the innocent H2600 ADV blood H1818 CMP , which H834 RPRO Joab H3097 shed H8210 , from M-PREP-1MS me , and from M-PREP-1MS the house H1004 CMS of my father H1 .
And the LORD H3068 EDS shall return H7725 his blood H1818 CMS-3MS upon H5921 PREP his own head H7218 CMS-3MS , who H834 RPRO fell H6293 upon two H8147 men H376 NMP more righteous H6662 and better H2896 than H4480 M-PREP-3MS he , and slew H2026 them with the sword H2719 , my father H1 David H1732 not H3808 NADV knowing H3045 [ thereof , ] [ to ] [ wit ] , Abner H74 the son H1121 CMS of Ner H5369 , captain H8269 of the host H6635 of Israel H3478 , and Amasa H6021 the son H1121 CMS of Jether H3500 , captain H8269 of the host H6635 of Judah H3063 .
Their blood H1818 shall therefore return H7725 upon the head H7218 B-NMS of Joab H3097 , and upon the head H7218 of his seed H2233 NMS-3MS forever H5769 L-NMS : but upon David H1732 , and upon his seed H2233 , and upon his house H1004 , and upon his throne H3678 , shall there be H1961 VQY3MS peace H7965 NMS forever H5704 PREP from M-PREP the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
So Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 went up H5927 W-VHY3MS , and fell H6293 upon him , and slew H4191 him : and he was buried H6912 in his own house H1004 B-CMS-3MS in the wilderness H4057 .
And the king H4428 D-NMS put H5414 W-VQQ3MS Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 CMS of Jehoiada H3077 in his room H8478 NMS over H5921 PREP the host H6635 : and Zadok H6659 the priest H3548 did the king H4428 D-NMS put H5414 VQQ3MS in the room H8478 NMS of Abiathar H54 .
And the king H4428 D-NMS sent H7971 W-VQY3MS and called H7121 W-VQY3MS for Shimei H8096 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Build H1129 thee a house H1004 in Jerusalem H3389 , and dwell H3427 there H8033 ADV , and go not forth W-NPAR thence H8033 M-ADV any H575 whither H575 .
For it shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS , [ that ] on the day H3117 B-NMS thou goest out H3318 , and passest over H5674 the brook H5158 NMS Kidron H6939 , thou shalt know H3045 for certain H3045 that H3588 CONJ thou shalt surely die H4191 VQFA : thy blood H1818 shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS upon thine own head H7218 .
And Shimei H8096 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto the king H4428 , The saying H1697 D-NMS [ is ] good H2896 AMS : as H834 K-RPRO my lord H113 the king H4428 D-NMS hath said H1696 VPQ3MS , so H3651 ADV will thy servant H5650 do H6213 VQY3MS . And Shimei H8096 dwelt H3427 W-VQY3MS in Jerusalem H3389 many H7227 AMP days H3117 NMP .
And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS at the end H7093 M-CMS of three H7969 MFS years H8141 NFP , that two H8147 of the servants H5650 NMP of Shimei H8096 ran away H1272 unto H413 PREP Achish H397 son H1121 of Maachah H4601 king H4428 NMS of Gath H1661 . And they told H5046 Shimei H8096 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Behold H2009 IJEC , thy servants H5650 [ be ] in Gath H1661 .
And Shimei H8096 arose H6965 W-VQY3MS , and saddled H2280 his ass H2543 , and went H1980 W-VQY3MS to Gath H1661 to H413 PREP Achish H397 to seek H1245 his servants H5650 : and Shimei H8096 went H1980 W-VQY3MS , and brought H935 W-VHY3MS his servants H5650 from Gath H1661 .
And the king H4428 D-NMS sent H7971 W-VQY3MS and called H7121 W-VQY3MS for Shimei H8096 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Did I not H3808 D-NPAR make thee to swear H7650 by the LORD H3068 , and protested H5749 unto thee , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Know for a certain H3045 , on the day H3117 B-NMS thou goest out H3318 , and walkest abroad H1980 any H575 whither H575 , that H3588 CONJ thou shalt surely die H4191 VQFA ? and thou saidst H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-1MS me , The word H1697 D-NMS [ that ] I have heard H8085 [ is ] good H2896 AMS .
Why H4069 then hast thou not H3808 NADV kept H8104 the oath H7621 of the LORD H3068 EDS , and the commandment H4687 that H834 RPRO I have charged H6680 thee H5921 PREP-2MS with ?
The king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS moreover to H413 PREP Shimei H8096 , Thou H859 PPRO-2MS knowest H3045 VQQ2MS all H3605 NMS the wickedness H7451 D-AFS which H834 RPRO thine heart H3824 is privy to H3045 VQQ2MS , that H834 RPRO thou didst H6213 VQQ2MS to David H1732 L-NAME my father H1 CMS-1MS : therefore the LORD H3068 EDS shall return H7725 thy wickedness H7451 upon thine own head H7218 ;
And king H4428 Solomon H8010 MMS [ shall ] [ be ] blessed H1288 VWQ3MS , and the throne H3678 of David H1732 shall be H1961 VQY3MS established H3559 NMS before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS forever H5704 PREP .
So the king H4428 D-NMS commanded H6680 W-VPY3MS Benaiah H1141 the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 ; which went out H3318 W-VQY3MS , and fell H6293 upon him , that he died H4191 . And the kingdom H4467 was established H3559 in the hand H3027 B-CFS of Solomon H8010 .
