1 Kings 1:5-7

New Century Version

⁵ Adonijah was the son of King David and Haggith, and he was very proud. “I will be the king,” he said. So he got chariots and horses for himself and fifty men for his personal bodyguard. ⁶ Now David had never interfered with Adonijah by questioning what he did. Born next after Absalom, Adonijah was a very handsome man.

⁷ Adonijah spoke with Joab son of Zeruiah and Abiathar the priest, and they agreed to help him.
