1 Kings 1:1-4

Now king
<04428>
David
<01732>
was old
<02204> (8804)
[and] stricken
<0935> (8804)
in years
<03117>_;
and they covered
<03680> (8762)
him with clothes
<0899>_,
but he gat no heat
<03179> (8799)_.
{stricken...: Heb. entered into days}
Wherefore his servants
<05650>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Let there be sought
<01245> (8762)
for my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
a young
<05291>
virgin
<01330>_:
and let her stand
<05975> (8804)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_,
and let her cherish
<05532> (8802)
him, and let her lie
<07901> (8804)
in thy bosom
<02436>_,
that my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
may get heat
<02552> (8804)_.
{Let there...: Heb. Let them seek} {a young...: Heb. a damsel, a virgin} {cherish...: Heb. be a cherisher unto him}
So they sought
<01245> (8762)
for a fair
<03303>
damsel
<05291>
throughout all the coasts
<01366>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and found
<04672> (8799)
Abishag
<049>
a Shunammite
<07767>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
her to the king
<04428>_.
And the damsel
<05291>
[was] very
<03966>
fair
<03303>_,
and cherished
<05532> (8802)
the king
<04428>_,
and ministered
<08334> (8762)
to him: but the king
<04428>
knew
<03045> (8804)
her not.
