1 Kings 1:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ She answered and said: My lord, thou didst swear to thy handmaid by the Lord thy God, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.

¹⁸ And behold now Adonias reigneth, and thou, my lord the king, knowest nothing of it.

¹⁹ He hath killed oxen, and all fat cattle, and many rams, and invited all the king's sons, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the general of the army: but Solomon thy servant he invited not.
