48 The king has also said this: 'Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who has granted one [of my descendants] to sit on my throne today and allowed my eyes to see it.'"

49 Then all Adonijah's guests were terrified [of being branded as traitors] and stood up and left the feast, and each one went on his way.
