1 Kings 1:11-14

11Nathan said to Bathsheba, Solomon’s mother, “Has it been reported to you that Haggith’s son Adonijah has become king behind our master David’s back?

12Now let me give you some advice as to how you can save your life and your son Solomon’s life.

13Visit King David and say to him, ‘My master, O king, did you not solemnly promise your servant, “Surely your son Solomon will be king after me; he will sit on my throne”? So why has Adonijah become king?’

14While you are still there speaking to the king, I will arrive and verify your report.”
