Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, I will be king: and he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
Entonces Adonías, cuya madre era Haguit, se exaltó a sí mismo y declaró: '¡Yo seré rey!' Preparó carros y jinetes, junto con cincuenta hombres para que corrieran delante de él como guardaespaldas.

📚 Contexto Histórico
In the biblical narrative of 1 Kings, King David is elderly and near death, creating a power vacuum in his kingdom of Israel. Adonijah, one of David's sons by his wife Haggith, arrogantly decides to proclaim himself king by assembling chariots, horsemen, and a retinue, which was a common practice in ancient Near Eastern cultures to demonstrate military strength and royal ambition. This event reflects the intense family rivalries and political intrigue that often surrounded royal successions in ancient Israel.
