So Bathsheba said, “Let your brother Adonijah marry Abishag, the woman from Shunem.”
So the king’s servants began looking everywhere in the country of Israel for a beautiful young woman to keep the king warm. They found a girl named Abishag. She was from the city of Shunem. They brought the young woman to the king.
The girl was very beautiful. She cared for the king and served him. But King David did not have sexual relations with her.
