1. And Sovereign Dawiḏ was old, advanced in years. And they covered him with garments, but he could not get warm.
2. So his servants said to him, “Let them seek for our master the sovereign a young woman, a maiden, and she shall stand before the sovereign and be his companion, and shall lie in your bosom, so that our master the sovereign gets warm.”
3. And they sought for a lovely young woman in all the border of Yisra’ĕl, and found Aḇishag̅ the Shunammite, and brought her to the sovereign.
