BRAGADAYJAH 985
Solomon Spares Adonijah
Jonathon also informed Adonijah’s gathering that the king’s servants went and blessed their lord king David, and told him that God has made the name of his son Solomon even greater than his own, and his throne greater than his own throne; and on hearing it, the king bowed himself upon his bed, and said “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel who has given one to sit on my throne this day, and allowing me to live to see it.” And on hearing this all the guests that were with Adonijah became afraid and every man left and returned unto his own house. And Adonijah feared because of Solomon, and rose up and went and laid hold on the horns on of the altar. And it was told Solomon that Adonijah feared him because he had gone and laid hold on the horns of the altar, and had prayed that King Solomon would not slay him. And Solomon said if he would show himself a worthy man then not a hair of his head shall be hurt; but if he shows himself to be wicked then he will die.” So King Solomon sent and brought Adonijah from the altar and he bowed himself before the king; and King Solomon told him to leave and go to his own house.
