1 Kings 2:24-26

Names of God Bible

²⁴ Yahweh set me on my father David’s throne and gave me a dynasty as he promised. So I solemnly swear, as Yahweh who has established me lives, that Adonijah will be put to death today.” ²⁵ King Solomon gave this task to Benaiah, son of Jehoiada. Benaiah attacked and killed Adonijah.

²⁶ The king told the priest Abiathar, “Go to your land in Anathoth. You deserve to die, but I won’t kill you at this time because you carried the ark of Adonay Yahweh ahead of my father David and because you shared all my father’s sufferings.”
