1 Kings 1:16-18

Tree of Life Version

¹⁶ Bath-sheba bowed and prostrated herself to the king. The king asked, “What troubles you?”

¹⁷ She said to him: “My lord, you swore by Adonai your God to your handmaid: ‘Surely, Solomon your son will be king after me, and he will sit on my throne.’ ¹⁸ Yet now, behold, Adonijah reigns, though you do not know it—my lord the king.
