1 Kings 1:12-14

International Standard Version

¹² If you listen to me, you’ll save your life and the life of your son Solomon. ¹³ Go right now to King David and ask him, ‘Your majesty, you promised your servant that “Your son Solomon will certainly become king after me and will sit on my throne,” didn’t you? So why has Adonijah become king?’ ¹⁴ Then, while you are still talking to the king, I’ll come in after you and verify your statement.”
