God’s Word Translation
1 Kings 1:17-20
17“Sir,” she answered, “You took an oath to the Lord your God. You said that my son Solomon will be king after you, and that he will sit on your throne.
18But now, you see, Adonijah has become king, and you don’t ⌞even⌟ know anything about it, Your Majesty.
19He has sacrificed many fattened calves, bulls, and sheep. He has invited all the king’s sons, Abiathar the priest, and Joab the commander of the army ⌞to his feast⌟. But he hasn’t invited your servant Solomon.
20All Israel is looking to you, Your Majesty, to tell them who should succeed you on your throne.
