1 Kings 1:15

Good News Translation

So Bathsheba went to see the king in his bedroom. He was very old, and Abishag, the young woman from Shunem, was taking care of him.

See the chapter Copy

King David was now a very old man, and although his servants covered him with blankets, he could not keep warm.

And Nathan added, “Then, while you are still talking with King David, I will come in and confirm your story.”

Bathsheba bowed low before the king, and he asked, “What do you want?”

A search was made all over Israel for a beautiful young woman, and in Shunem they found such a woman named Abishag, and brought her to the king.
