1 Kings 1:18-19

1:18 But now, look, Adonijah has become king! But you, ⁴  my master the king, are not even aware of it! ⁵  1:19 He has sacrificed many cattle, steers, and sheep and has invited all the king’s sons, Abiathar the priest, and Joab, the commander of the army, but he has not invited your servant Solomon.

[1:7]  ¹ tn Heb “his words were.”

[1:7]  ² tn Heb “helped after” (i.e., stood by).

[1:7]  ³ tn Heb “Adonijah.” The proper name has been replaced by the pronoun (“him”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[1:18]  ⁴ tc Instead of עַתָּה (’attah, “now”) many Hebrew mss, along with the Old Greek, Syriac Peshitta, and Latin Vulgate, have the similar sounding independent pronoun אַתָּה (’attah, “you”). This reading is followed in the present translation.

[1:18]  ⁵ tn Heb “you do not know [about it].”
