New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
17
So she said to him, 'My lord, you yourself swore to your servant by the
Lord
your God,
saying,
‘Your son Solomon certainly shall be king after me, and he shall sit on my throne.’
18
But now, behold, Adonijah is king; and now, my lord the king, you do not know
it.
19
He has sacrificed oxen and fattened steers and sheep in abundance, and has invited all the sons of the king, Abiathar the priest, and Joab the commander of the army, but he has not invited Solomon your servant.
20
And as for you, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are upon you, to announce to them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
21
Otherwise it will come about, as soon as my lord the king lies down with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon will be
considered
offenders.'
22
And behold, while she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.
King James Version
Chapter 1
17
And she said unto him, My lord, thou swarest by the
Lord
thy God unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne.
18
And now, behold, Adonijah reigneth; and now, my lord the king, thou knowest it not:
19
And he hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host: but Solomon thy servant hath he not called.
20
And thou, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldest tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
21
Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.
22
And, lo, while she yet talked with the king, Nathan the prophet also came in.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
17
She replied, "My lord, you swore to your servant by the
Lord
your God, ‘Your son Solomon is to become king after me, and he is the one who is to sit on my throne.’
18
Now look, Adonijah has become king. And, my lord the king, you didn’t know it.
19
He has lavishly sacrificed oxen, fattened cattle, and sheep. He invited all the king’s sons, the priest Abiathar, and Joab the commander of the army, but he did not invite your servant Solomon.
20
Now, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you to tell them who will sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
21
Otherwise, when my lord the king rests with his fathers, I and my son Solomon will be regarded as criminals."
22
At that moment, while she was still speaking with the king, the prophet Nathan arrived,
New Living Translation
Chapter 1
17
She replied, 'My lord, you made a vow before the
Lord
your God when you said to me, ‘Your son Solomon will surely be the next king and will sit on my throne.’
18
But instead, Adonijah has made himself king, and my lord the king does not even know about it.
19
He has sacrificed many cattle, fattened calves, and sheep, and he has invited all the king’s sons to attend the celebration. He also invited Abiathar the priest and Joab, the commander of the army. But he did not invite your servant Solomon.
20
And now, my lord the king, all Israel is waiting for you to announce who will become king after you.
21
If you do not act, my son Solomon and I will be treated as criminals as soon as my lord the king has died.'
22
While she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet arrived.

She said to him, "My lord, you yourself swore to me your servant by the
Lord
your God: ‘Solomon your son shall be king after me, and he will sit on my throne.’
18
But now Adonijah has become king, and you, my lord the king, do not know about it.
19
He has sacrificed great numbers of cattle, fattened calves, and sheep, and has invited all the king’s sons, Abiathar the priest and Joab the commander of the army, but he has not invited Solomon your servant.
20
My lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, to learn from you who will sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

Otherwise, as soon as my lord the king is laid to rest with his ancestors, I and my son Solomon will be treated as criminals."

17
Then she said to him, “My lord, you swore by the
Lord
your God to your maidservant,
saying,
‘Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.’
18
So now, look! Adonijah has become king; and now, my lord the king, you do not know about
it.
19
He has sacrificed oxen and fattened cattle and sheep in abundance, and has invited all the sons of the king, Abiathar the priest, and Joab the commander of the army; but Solomon your servant he has not invited.
20
And as for you, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel
are
on you, that you should tell them who will sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
21
Otherwise it will happen, when my lord the king rests with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon will be counted as offenders.”
22
And just then, while she was still talking with the king, Nathan the prophet also came in.
