16 And now I have one request to make of you; do not refuse me." She said to him, "Speak."
17 And he said, "Please ask King Solomon--he will not refuse you--to give me Abishag the Shunammite as my wife."
18 Bathsheba said, "Very well; I will speak for you to the king."
19 So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him on behalf of Adonijah. And the king rose to meet her and bowed down to her. Then he sat on his throne and had a seat brought for the king's mother, and she sat on his right.
20 Then she said, "I have one small request to make of you; do not refuse me." And the king said to her, "Make your request, my mother, for I will not refuse you."
