1 Kings 1:22-27

22And just thenH2009, while Bathsheba was stillH5750 speakingH1696 withH5973 the kingH4428, NathanH5416 the prophetH5030 arrivedH935. 23So the kingH4428 was toldH5046H559, “NathanH5416 the prophetH5030 is hereH2009.” And Nathan went inH935 and bowedH7812 facedownH5921H639H776 beforeH6440 the kingH4428.

24“My lordH113 the kingH4428,” saidH559 NathanH5416, “did youH859 sayH559, ‘AdonijahH138 will reignH4427 after meH310, and heH1931 will sitH3427 onH5921 my throneH3678’? 25ForH3588 todayH3117 he has gone downH3381 and sacrificedH2076 an abundanceH7230 of oxenH7794, fattened calvesH4806, and sheepH6629, and has invitedH7121 allH3605 the sonsH1121 of the kingH4428, the commandersH82691 of the armyH6635, and AbiatharH54 the priestH3548. And beholdH2009, they are eatingH398 and drinkingH8354 before himH6440, sayingH559, ‘Long liveH2421 KingH4428 AdonijahH138!’ 26But meH589 your servantH5650 he has notH3808 invitedH7121, nor ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, nor BenaiahH1141 sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, nor your servantH5650 SolomonH8010. 27HasH518H854 my lordH113 the kingH4428 let thisH2088 happenH1961H1697 withoutH3808 informingH3045 your servantH5650 whoH4310 should sitH3427 onH5921 the throneH3678 afterH310 my lordH113 the kingH4428?”
