And the damsel was very fair, and cherished the king, and ministered to him: but the king knew her not.
And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that you are a fair woman to look on:
So they sought for a fair damsel throughout all the coasts of Israel, and found Abishag a Shunammite, and brought her to the king.
Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king: and he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
And he said, Speak, I pray you, to Solomon the king, (for he will not say you no,) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.
And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah your brother to wife.
And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
