1:1 David in his old age

Full kingdom

1 Now King David had become very old, and he couldn’t keep warm even when covered with blankets, 2 so his servants suggested, “Allow us search for a young woman who can wait on you and take care of your needs. She can sleep beside you and keep our master, the king, warm.” 3 So they searched throughout Yisrael (Israel) and found a beautiful young woman called Avishag (a Shunamit) and brought her to the king. 4 She was incredibly beautiful and she took care of the king, but he didn’t have sexual relations with her.

1 And_the_king Dāvid he_was_old he_had_come in_the_days and_they_covered_him with_clothes and_not it_was_warm to_him/it.

2 And_they_said to_him/it servants_of_his let_people_seek for_master_of_my the_king a_young_woman a_virgin and_she_will_stand to_(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before the_king and_let_her_be to_him/it a_nurse and_she_will_lie in_bosom_of_your and_it_will_be_warm to_master_of_my the_king.

3 And_they_sought a_young_woman beautiful in_all_of the_territory_of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) and_they_found DOM ʼAⱱīshag the_Shūnammit and_they_brought DOM_her/it to_king.

4 And_the_young_woman was_beautiful up_to muchness and_it_became to/for_the_king a_nurse and_she_served_him and_the_king not he_knew_her.
