And now, as the Lord lives, who has confirmed me and placed me upon the throne of my father David, and who, just as he said, has made a house for me: Adonijah shall be put to death this day.”
And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, who put him to death, and so he died.
Also, the king said to Abiathar, the priest: “Go into Anathoth, to your own land, for you are a man worthy of death.
