וַיְבַקְשׁוּ֙ נַעֲרָ֣ה יָפָ֔ה בְּכֹ֖ל גְּב֣וּל יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַֽיִּמְצְא֗וּ אֶת־אֲבִישַׁג֙ הַשּׁ֣וּנַמִּ֔ית וַיָּבִ֥אוּ אֹתָ֖הּ לַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
און זײ האָבן געזוכט אַ שײן מײדל אין גאַנצן געמאַרק פֿון ישׂראל, און זײ האָבן געפֿונען אַבֿישַג פֿון שוּנֵם און האָבן זי געבראַכט צום מלך.
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“They searched for a beautiful girl throughout the territory of Israel, etc.” [1:3]. They searched for a beautiful maiden and they found a maiden who was called Abishag the Shunamite. They brought her to King David and she served him, but the king did not want to sleep with her, expecting that she should keep him warm; she should keep her virginity.
