48 Voici encore ce qu’a dit le roi: Béni soit l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël, qui m’a donné aujourd’hui un successeur sur mon trône, et qui m’a permis de le voir!

49 Tous les conviés d’Adonija furent saisis d’épouvante; ils se levèrent et s’en allèrent chacun de son côté.

50 Adonija eut peur de Salomon; il se leva aussi, s’en alla, et saisit les cornes de l’autel.

51 On vint dire à Salomon: Voici, Adonija a peur du roi Salomon, et il a saisi les cornes de l’autel, en disant: Que le roi Salomon me jure aujourd’hui qu’il ne fera point mourir son serviteur par l’épée!

52 Salomon dit: S’il se montre un honnête homme, il ne tombera pas à terre un de ses cheveux; mais s’il se trouve en lui de la méchanceté, il mourra.
