1 King David had grown old, and although he was covered with blankets, he couldn’t get warm.
2 His officials told him, “Your Majesty, let us search for a young woman who has never been married. She can stay with you and be your servant. She can lie in your arms and keep you warm.”
3 So they searched throughout Israel for a beautiful, young woman. They found Abishag from Shunem and brought her to the king.
4 The woman was very beautiful. She became the king’s servant and took care of him, but the king did not make love to her.
