2: I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man;
3: And keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself:

1 Kings 2:7 shew kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite...
7: But shew kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table: for so they came to me when I fled because of Absalom thy brother.

12: Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.
1 Kings 2:13-18 Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon... he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine...and is become my brother's: for it was his from the LORD... Speak... unto Solomon the king...that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.
13: And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Comest thou peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.
14: He said moreover, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And she said, Say on.
15: And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: howbeit the kingdom is turned about, and is become my brother's: for it was his from the LORD.
16: And now I ask one petition of thee, deny me not. And she said unto him, Say on.
17: And he said, Speak, I pray thee, unto Solomon the king, (for he will not say thee nay,) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.
18: And Bath-sheba said, Well; I will speak for thee unto the king.
1 Kings 2:19-21 Bath-sheba...went unto king Solomon... for Adonijah... and she sat on his right hand...I desire one small petition of thee; I pray thee, say me not nay... the king said ... I will not say thee nay...she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.
19: Bath-sheba therefore went unto king Solomon, to speak unto him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself unto her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a seat to be set for the king's mother; and she sat on his right hand.
20: Then she said, I desire one small petition of thee; I pray thee, say me not nay. And the king said unto her, Ask on, my mother: for I will not say thee nay.
21: And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.
1 Kings 2:22-25 king Solomon answered ... And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also for he is mine elder brother... God do so to me...if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life ... as he (God) promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.
22: And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother, And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he is mine elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.
23: Then king Solomon sware by the LORD, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life.
24: Now therefore, as the LORD liveth, which hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me an house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.
25: And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him that he died.
1 Kings 2:26-27 unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou art worthy of death...
26: And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.
27: So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the LORD; that he might fulfil the word of the LORD, which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.
1 Kings 2:28-29 Tidings came to Joab: for Joab had turned after Adonijah...Joab fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD ...Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.

29: And it was told king Solomon that Joab was fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD; and, behold, he is by the altar.
Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.
1 Kings 2:30-34
30: And Benaiah came to the tabernacle of the LORD, and said unto him, Thus saith the king, Come forth. And he said, Nay; but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.
31: And the king said unto him, Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me, and from the house of my father.
32: And the LORD shall return his blood upon his own head, who fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing thereof, to wit, Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.
33: Their blood shall therefore return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever: but upon David, and upon his seed, and upon his house, and upon his throne, shall there be peace for ever from the LORD.
34: So Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and slew him: and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.
1 Kings 2:35-38 the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the host... Zadok the priest ... put in the room of Abiathar...called for Shimei, and said...Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth... it shall be, that on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head.
35: And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the host: and Zadok the priest did the king put in the room of Abiathar.
36: And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any whither.
37: For it shall be, that on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head.
38: And Shimei said unto the king, The saying is good: as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do.
And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
1 Kings 2:39-41 at the end of three years... two of the servants of Shimei ran away unto Achish son of Maachah king of Gath...Shimei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants...
39: And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away unto Achish son of Maachah king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, thy servants be in Gath.
40: And Shimei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants: and Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.
41: And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again.
1 Kings 2:42-46 the king sent ...for Shimei, and said...Did I not make thee to swear by the LORD, and protested unto thee, saying, Know for a certain, on the day thou goest out, and walkest abroad any wither, that thou shalt surely die?...the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; which went out, and fell upon him, that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
42: And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Did I not make thee to swear by the LORD, and protested unto thee, saying, Know for a certain, on the day thou goest out, and walkest abroad any wither, that thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst unto me, The word that I have heard is good.
43: Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the LORD, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?
44: The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness which thine heart is privy to, that thou didst to David my father: therefore the LORD shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head;
45: And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD for ever.
46: So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; which went out, and fell upon him, that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
