Adonijah, afraid because of Solomon, hangs onto the horns of the altar

아도니야가 솔로몬을 두려워하여 제단 뿔을 잡음

1 Kings 1:49–53: all the guests of Adonijah are afraid, and rise up, and each man goes his way. Adonijah is afraid because of Solomon; and he arises, and goes, and hangs onto the horns of the altar. Solomon is told, “Behold, Adonijah fears King Solomon; for, behold, he is hanging onto the horns of the altar, saying, ‘Let King Solomon swear to me first that he will not kill his servant with the sword.’” Solomon says, “If he shows himself a worthy man, not a hair of his shall fall to the earth; but if wickedness is found in him, he shall die.” So King Solomon sends, and they bring him down from the altar. He comes and bows down to King Solomon; and Solomon says to him, “Go to your house.” The Korean Revised Version has 혹이, someone, tell Solomon at 1:51, reads 선한 사람, a good man, at 1:52, and names no one who sends at 1:53 (사람을 보내어).
