Maka hal itu dimaklumkan oranglah kepada raja Sulaiman, sembahnya: Bahwasanya Adonia itu takut akan tuanku Sulaiman, sebab itu dipegangnya akan tanduk mezbah, katanya: Biarlah baginda raja Sulaiman bersumpah kepada hamba pada hari ini juga, bahwa tiada dibunuhnya akan hamba ini kelak dengan pedang!

Contextual Overview

41 And Adonia and al the ghestes that he had called vnto him, hearde it [euen] as they had made an ende of eating. And when Ioab hearde the sounde of the trumpet, he sayde: What meaneth this noyse and vprore in the citie? 42 And as he yet spake, beholde Ionathan the sonne of Abiathar the priest came, and Adonia said vnto him: Come in, for thou art a valiant man, and bringest good tydinges. 43 And Ionathan aunswered and sayde to Adonia: Ueryly our lorde king Dauid hath made Solomon king. 44 And the king hath sent with him Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaiah the sonne of Iehoiada, & the Cerethites, and the Phelethites, & they haue set him vpo the kinges mule. 45 And Sadoc the priest & Nathan the prophete, haue annoynted him king in Gihon. And they came vp from thence, & reioyced, that the citie did sounde againe: And that is the noyse, that ye haue hearde. 46 And Solomon sitteth on the seate of the kingdome. 47 And moreouer, the kinges seruauntes came to blesse our lorde king Dauid, saying: God make the name of Solomo more honorable then thy name, & make his seate greater then thy seate. And the king bowed him selfe vpon the bed. 48 And thus sayd the king: Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, which hath made one to sit on my seate this day, myne eye seyng it. 49 And al the ghestes that were with Adonia were afrayde, and rose vp, & went euery man his way. 50 And Adonia fearing the presence of Solomon, arose, and went and caught hold on the hornes of the aulter.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it was told Solomon,.... By some of his courtiers:

saying, behold, Adonijah feareth King Solomon; lest he should take away his life:

for, lo, he hath caught hold on the horns of the altar; which was the last resort of the guilty when they despaired of mercy otherwise:

saying, let King Solomon swear unto me this day that he will not slay his servant with the sword; he owns Solomon to be king, and himself his subject and servant; this no doubt he did to conciliate his favour, nor did he think his life safe, unless Solomon promised with an oath, that he would not take it away.
