1 Kings 2:22 · Berean Standard Bible

Context
20Bathsheba akamwambia mfalme, “Ninalo ombi moja dogo la kukuomba; usinikatalie.”
Mfalme akajibu, “Omba, mama yangu; sitakukatalia.” 21Akasema, “Mruhusu Abishagi, Mshunami, aolewe na ndugu yako Adoniya.” 22Mfalme Solomoni akamjibu mama yake, “Kwa nini uombe Abishagi, Mshunami, kwa ajili ya Adoniya? Ungeweza pia kuomba ufalme kwa ajili yake, kwani yeye ni ndugu yangu mkubwa: naam, kwa ajili yake, na kwa kuhani Abiathari na Yoabu mwana wa Seruya!” 23Mfalme Solomoni akaapa kwa Bwana, akasema: “Mungu na aniulie mbali, tena bila huruma, ikiwa Adoniya hatalipa kwa uhai wake kwa ajili ya ombi hili! 24Basi sasa, hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, yeye ambaye ameniimarisha salama kwenye kiti cha ufalme cha Daudi baba yangu, naye amenipa ufalme wa kudumu kama alivyoahidi, Adoniya atauawa leo!”
