And Beth–zur, and Soco , and Adullam ,

And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.

And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive his pledge from the woman's hand: but he found her not.

David therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave Adullam : and when his brethren and all his father's house heard it, they went down thither to him.

Zanoah , Adullam , and in their villages, at Lachish , and the fields thereof, at Azekah , and in the villages thereof. And they dwelt from Beer–sheba unto the valley of Hinnom.

Now three of the thirty captains went down to the rock to David , into the cave of Adullam ; and the host of the Philistines encamped in the valley of Rephaim .

And in process of time the daughter of Shua Judah 's wife died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheepshearers to Timnah , he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.

And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam : and the troop of the Philistines pitched in the valley of Rephaim .

And Judas gathering his army came to the city of Adullam ; and as the seventh day was coming on, they purified themselves according to the custom, and kept the Sabbath there.

Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the tribute; and all Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. Therefore king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem .

And Adonijah slew sheep and oxen and fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which is by En–rogel, and called all his brethren the king's sons, and all the men of Judah the king's servants:

Adonijah was the son of King David and his wife Haggith. He was born after Absalom. Adonijah was a very handsome man. King David never corrected his son Adonijah, and he never made him explain his actions. Adonijah became very proud and decided that he would be the next king. He wanted very much to be the king, so he got himself a chariot, horses, and 50 men to run ahead of him.

Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and reared up for himself a pillar, which is in the king's dale: for he said, I have no son to keep my name in remembrance: and he called the pillar after his own name: and it is called unto this day, Absalom's place.

And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bath–sheba the mother of Solomon . And she said, Comest thou peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.

Duke Magdiel, duke Iram: these be the dukes of Edom , according to their habitations in the land of their possession: he is Esau the father of the Edomites.

But the king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!

And Adonijah feared because of Solomon , and arose, and went, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

And Zadok the son of Ahitub , and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Seraiah was the scribe;

Duke Korah , duke Gatam , and duke Amalek : these are the dukes that came of Eliphaz in the land of Edom ; these were the sons of Adah.

And Ahitub begat Zadok , and Zadok begat Shallum ,

Go and get thee in unto king David , and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?
