13 Go and enter in to King David and say to him, ‘Did you not, my lord the king, swear to your maidservant, saying, “Surely Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne”? And why has Adonijah become king?’ 14 Behold, while you are still talking there with the king, I will come in after you and confirm your words.” 15 And Bathsheba went in to the king into the chamber. And the king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammitess was serving the king. 16 And Bathsheba bowed bowed herself low to the king. And the king said, “What is for you?” 17 And she said to him, “My lord, you swore by YHWH your God to your maidservant, ‘Surely Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.’ 1 Kings 1:13-17, Berean Literal Bible.
