1 Kings 1:28-30

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁸ And king David answered and said: Call to me Bethsabee. And when she was come in to the king, and stood before him,

²⁹ The king swore and said: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress,

³⁰ Even as I swore to thee by the Lord the God of Israel, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead, so will I do this day.
