11:001:048 And also thus said the king, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, which hath given one to sit on my throne this day, mine eyes even seeing it.
11:001:049 And all the guests that were with Adonijah were afraid, and
rose up, and went every man his way.
11:001:050 And Adonijah feared because of Solomon, and arose, and went,
and caught hold on the horns of the altar.
11:001:051 And it was told Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonijah feareth king Solomon: for, lo, he hath caught hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear unto me today that he will not slay his servant with the sword.
11:001:052 And Solomon said, If he will shew himself a worthy man, there
shall not an hair of him fall to the earth: but if wickedness
shall be found in him, he shall die.
11:001:053 So king Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the
altar. And he came and bowed himself to king Solomon: and
Solomon said unto him, Go to thine house.
11:002:001 Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he
charged Solomon his son, saying,
11:002:002 I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and
shew thyself a man;
11:002:003 And keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways,
to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments,
and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses,
that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and
whithersoever thou turnest thyself:
11:002:004 That the LORD may continue his word which he spake concerning
me, saying, If thy children take heed to their way, to walk
before me in truth with all their heart and with all their
soul, there shall not fail thee (said he) a man on the throne
of Israel.
