1 Kings 1:6-8

Revised Geneva Translation

⁶ And his father had never disciplined him since his childhood, to say, “Why have you done this?” And he was a very pleasant man, born next after Absalom.

⁷ And he took counsel from Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and from Abiathar the Priest. And they looked after Adonijah.

⁸ But Zadok the Priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the Prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the men of might who were with David, were not with Adonijah.
