Darby Translation
23 And king Solomon swore by Jehovah saying, God do so to me, and more also,—Adonijah has spoken this word against his own life!
24 And now [as] Jehovah liveth, who has established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who has made me a house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.
25 And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; who fell on him, that he died.

1 Kings 2:23-25
New International Version
23 Then King Solomon swore by the Lord: “May God deal with me, be it ever so severely,(A) if Adonijah does not pay with his life for this request! 24 And now, as surely as the Lord lives—he who has established me securely on the throne of my father David and has founded a dynasty for me as he promised(B)—Adonijah shall be put to death today!” 25 So King Solomon gave orders to Benaiah(C) son of Jehoiada, and he struck down Adonijah and he died.(D)
