Rashi
prosper Heb. יחילו, prosper, and similar to this is (in Job 20:21): “therefore shall his goods not prosper (יחיל).” Others explain יחילו like (II Sam. 3:29): “May it rest (יחולו) upon the head of Joab.”
Rashi
And he said, “No.” Two [punishments] I will not accept upon myself. The curses that your father Dovid cursed me at the death of Avner, as it is stated, “They shall fall upon the head of Yo’av.”18II Shmuel 3:29. let Shlomo accept them upon himself, and afterward I will go.
Rashi
Do as he said. I accept them [i.e., the curses] upon myself. Therefore, all these became attached to Dovid’s offspring. Uziyah became [a] leper,19II Divrei Hayomim 26:19. Assa leaned on a staff,20See II Shmuel 3:29 and I Melochim 15:23. Yehoyakim died by the sword,21See Yirmiyahu 22:19. and Tzidkiyahu lacked bread.22See II Melochim 25:30.
Rashi
support the spindle Heb. פלך, a support, as in (II Sam. 3:29): “one who leans on a staff (מחזיק בפלך).”
