1 Kings 1:5

Context

1:5 Now Adonijah, son of David and Haggith, 1  was promoting himself, 2  boasting, 3  “I will be king!” He managed to acquire 4  chariots and horsemen, as well as fifty men to serve as his royal guard. 5 

1 tn Heb “son of Haggith,” but since this formula usually designates the father (who in this case was David), the translation specifies that David was Adonijah’s father.

sn Haggith was one of David’s wives (2 Sam 3:4; 2 Chr 3:2).

2 tn Heb “lifting himself up.”

3 tn Heb “saying.”

4 tn Or “he acquired for himself.”

5 tn Heb “to run ahead of him.”
