In context
18 Bathisheba akamwambia, “Vyema sana, nitamwambia mfalme”
19 Kwa hiyo Bathisheba akaenda kumwambia, mfalme Sulemani kwa niaba ya Adoniya. Mfalme akainuka kumlaki na akapiga magoti mbele yake. Kisha akaa kwenye kiti chake cha enzi na kulikuwa na kiti kingine cha enzi kilicholetwa kwa ajili ya mama wa mfalme. Naye akaa mkono wa kuume wa mfalme.
20 Ndipo alipomwambia, “Napenda kukuomba ombi moja dogo. Usinikalie.” Mfalme, akamjibu, “Mama omba kwa kuwa sitakukatalia.”
21 Naya akamwambia, “Naomba Abishagi Mshunami apewe Adoniya ndugu yako awe mke wake.”
22 Mfalme Sulemani akamjibu mama yake, “Kwa nini unamwombea Adoniya huyo Abishagi Mshunami? Kwa nini usimwombee ufalme pia, kwa kuwa ni ndugu yangu mkubwa? - au kwa Abiathari kuhani, au Yoabu mwana wa Seruya?”
23 Kisha mfalme Sulemani akaapa kwa BWANA, akisema, “Mungu wangu na anifanyie hivyo, na zaidi pia, kama Adoniya hajayasema haya kinyume na maisha yake.
24 Sasa basi kama BWANA aishivyo, ambaye ndiye alinifanya mimi kuwepo na kunipa kiti cha enzi cha Daudi baba yangu, na ambaye amenifanyia nyumba kwa ahadi yake, hakika Adoniya lazima auawe leo.”
