King Solomon gives an answer to Adonijah's request.

Why do you ask … Why do you not ask the kingdom for him also… ?

King Solomon was angered by his mother's request and answers her in a question. AT: "I suppose I should allow him to rule the kingdom too!" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)

Adonijah has not spoken this word against his own life.

AT: "for Adonijah has put his own life in danger by making this request." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-litotes)
