11Then Nathan said to Bathsheba, Solomon’s mother, “Have you not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith has become king, and our lord David does not know it?”

12Now come, please let me advise you, and save your life and the life of your son Solomon.

13Please go in to King David and say to him, ‘My lord the king, did you not swear to your servant, saying, “Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne”? Why then has Adonijah become king?’

14Look, while you are still speaking there with the king, I will come in after you and confirm your words.
