1 Kings 1:20-24
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
20And 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. 21Otherwise 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.'
22And behold, while she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.
23They informed the king, saying, 'Nathan the prophet is here.' And when he came into the king’s presence, he prostrated himself before the king with his face to the ground.
24Then Nathan said, 'My lord the king, have you yourself said, ‘Adonijah shall be king after me, and he shall sit on my throne’?

And when he was come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground. 24And Nathan said, My lord, O king, hast thou said, Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne?Christian Standard Bible
