David went out to meet them, and said to them,“ If you come peacefully to help me, my heart shall be united with you; but if to betray me to my enemies, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers look on it and decide.”Then the Spirit covered Amasai like clothing, the chief of the thirty; and he said,“ We are yours, David, And are with you, son of Jesse! Peace, peace to you, And peace to him who helps you; Indeed, your God helps you!” Then David received them and made them captains of the troops.

Now Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying,“ I will be king.” So he prepared for himself chariots and horsemen, with fifty men to run before him.And his father had never rebuked him at any time by asking,“ Why have you done so?” And he was also a very handsome man, and he was born after Absalom.Now he had conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah and with Abiathar the priest; and they allied themselves with Adonijah.But Zadok the priest, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shimei, Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.Adonijah sacrificed sheep, oxen, and fattened steers by the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En rogel; and he invited all his brothers, the king’s sons, and all the men of Judah, the king’s servants.But he did not invite Nathan the prophet, Benaiah, the mighty men, or his brother Solomon.

Adonijah also was afraid of Solomon, and he got up, and went, and took hold of the horns of the altar.Now it was reported to Solomon, saying,“ Behold, Adonijah is afraid of King Solomon, for behold, he has taken hold of the horns of the altar, saying,‘ May King Solomon swear to me today that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.’ ”And Solomon said,“ If he is a worthy man, not one of his hairs will fall to the ground; but if wickedness is found in him, he will die.”So King Solomon sent men, and they brought him down from the altar. And he came and prostrated himself before King Solomon, and Solomon said to him,“ Go to your house.”

So a horseman went to meet him and said,“ This is what the king says:‘ Is your intention peace?’ ” But Jehu said,“ How is peace any business of yours? Turn and follow me.” And the watchman reported,“ The messenger came to them, but he did not return.”Then he sent a second horseman, and he came to them and said,“ This is what the king says:‘ Is your intention peace?’ ” And Jehu answered,“ How is peace any business of yours? Turn and follow me.”And the watchman reported,“ He came up to them, but he did not return; and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously.”Then Joram said,“ Get ready.” And they made his chariot ready. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu and found him on the property of Naboth the Jezreelite.When Joram saw Jehu, he said,“ Is your intention peace, Jehu?” And he answered,“ What‘ peace,’ so long as your mother Jezebel’s acts of prostitution and witchcraft are so many?”
