Go in to King David and say to him,‘ My lord the king, did you not swear to me your servant:“ Surely Solomon your son shall be king after me, and he will sit on my throne”? Why then has Adonijah become king?’

Go in and see King David. Say to him,‘ You are my king and master. You promised me,“ You can be sure that your son Solomon will be king after me. He will sit on my throne.” If that’s really true, why has Adonijah become king?’

Go in at once to King David, and say to him,‘ Did you not, my lord the king, swear to your servant, saying,“ Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne”? Why then is Adonijah king?’

Go, approach King David and say to him,‘ My lord the king, did you not swear to your servant: Your son Solomon is to become king after me, and he is the one who is to sit on my throne? So why has Adonijah become king?’

Go at once to King David and say to him,‘ Have you not, my lord the king, sworn to your servant, saying,“ Solomon your son certainly shall be king after me, and he shall sit on my throne”? Why then has Adonijah become king?’

Go immediately to King David and say to him,‘ Did you not, my Lord, O king, swear to your maidservant, saying,“ Assuredly your son Solomon shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne”? Why then has Adonijah become king?’

Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thy handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?

Go, approach King David and say to him,‘ My lord the king, did you not swear to your servant: Your son Solomon is to become king after me, and he is the one who is to sit on my throne? So why has Adonijah become king?’

Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?

Visit 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?’

Go in to king David, and tell him,‘ Didn’t you, my lord, king, swear to your servant, saying,“ Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne?” Why then does Adonijah reign?’

your son Solomon will be the next king and will sit on my throne this very day, just as I vowed to you before the Lord, the God of Israel.”

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.’

He will be very great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David.And he will reign over Israel forever; his Kingdom will never end!”

“ When he sits on the throne as king, he must copy for himself this body of instruction on a scroll in the presence of the Levitical priests.

and he said,‘ Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, who today has chosen a successor to sit on my throne while I am still alive to see it.’”

Then escort him back here, and he will sit on my throne. He will succeed me as king, for I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and Judah.”

Solomon became king and sat on the throne of David his father, and his kingdom was firmly established.

Then Nathan went to Bathsheba, Solomon’s mother, and asked her,“ Haven’t you heard that Haggith’s son, Adonijah, has made himself king, and our lord David doesn’t even know about it?

Nathan asked,“ My lord the king, have you decided that Adonijah will be the next king and that he will sit on your throne?

only then will my covenant with my servant David be broken. Only then will he no longer have a descendant to reign on his throne. The same is true for my covenant with the Levitical priests who minister before me.

Then David sent for his son Solomon and instructed him to build a Temple for the Lord, the God of Israel.“ My son, I wanted to build a Temple to honor the name of the Lord my God,” David told him.“ But the Lord said to me,‘ You have killed many men in the battles you have fought. And since you have shed so much blood in my sight, you will not be the one to build a Temple to honor my name.But you will have a son who will be a man of peace. I will give him peace with his enemies in all the surrounding lands. His name will be Solomon, and I will give peace and quiet to Israel during his reign.He is the one who will build a Temple to honor my name. He will be my son, and I will be his father. And I will secure the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’“ Now, my son, may the Lord be with you and give you success as you follow his directions in building the Temple of the Lord your God.And may the Lord give you wisdom and understanding, that you may obey the Law of the Lord your God as you rule over Israel.For you will be successful if you carefully obey the decrees and regulations that the Lord gave to Israel through Moses. Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid or lose heart!

His government and its peace will never end. He will rule with fairness and justice from the throne of his ancestor David for all eternity. The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will make this happen!

So Solomon took the throne of the Lord in place of his father, David, and he succeeded in everything, and all Israel obeyed him.

The Lord swore an oath to David with a promise he will never take back:“ I will place one of your descendants on your throne.If your descendants obey the terms of my covenant and the laws that I teach them, then your royal line will continue forever and ever.”
