1 Raja-raja 1:25

1:25 For today he has gone down and sacrificed many cattle, steers, and sheep and has invited all the king’s sons, the army commanders, and Abiathar the priest. At this moment ¹  they are having a feast ²  in his presence, and they have declared, ‘Long live King Adonijah!’ ³ 

1 Raja-raja 1:2

1:2 His servants advised ⁴  him, “A young virgin must be found for our master, the king, ⁵  to take care of the king’s needs ⁶  and serve as his nurse. She can also sleep with you ⁷  and keep our master, the king, warm.” ⁸ 

Kisah Para Rasul 11:12

11:12 The Spirit told me to accompany them without hesitation. These six brothers ⁹  also went with me, and we entered the man’s house.

[1:25]  ¹ tn Heb “look.”

[1:25]  ² tn Heb “eating and drinking.”

[1:25]  ³ tn Heb “let the king, Adonijah, live!”

[1:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “said to.”

[1:2]  ⁵ tn Heb “let them seek for my master, the king, a young girl, a virgin.” The third person plural subject of the verb is indefinite (see GKC 460 §144.f). The appositional expression, “a young girl, a virgin,” is idiomatic; the second term specifically defines the more general first term (see IBHS 230 §12.3b).

[1:2]  ⁶ tn Heb “and she will stand before the king.” The Hebrew phrase “stand before” can mean “to attend; to serve” (BDB 764 s.v. עָמַד).

[1:2]  ⁷ tn Heb “and she will lie down in your bosom.” The expression might imply sexual intimacy (see 2 Sam 12:3 [where the lamb symbolizes Bathsheba] and Mic 7:5), though v. 4b indicates that David did not actually have sex with the young woman.

[1:2]  ⁸ tn Heb “and my master, the king, will be warm.”

[11:12]  ⁹ sn Six witnesses is three times more than what would normally be required. They could confirm the events were not misrepresented by Peter.
