1 Kings 2:18-20

New Life Version

¹⁸ Bathsheba said, “Very well. I will speak to the king for you.”

¹⁹ So Bathsheba went to speak to King Solomon for Adonijah. The king stood up to meet her, bowed in front of her, then sat on his throne. He had a seat brought in for the king’s mother, and she sat on his right. ²⁰ She said, “I am asking you for one small thing. Do not say no to me.” And the king said to her, “Ask, my mother. I will not say no to you.”
