1 Kings 1 — Context

7

He had conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah and with Abiathar the priest; and following Adonijah they helped him.

8

But Zadok the priest, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shimei, Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.

9

Adonijah sacrificed sheep and oxen and fatlings by the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En-rogel; and he invited all his brothers, the king's sons, and all the men of Judah, the king's servants.

10

But he did not invite Nathan the prophet, Benaiah, the mighty men, and Solomon his brother.

11

Then Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, "Have you not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith has become king, and David our lord does not know it?

12

"So now come, please let me give you counsel and save your life and the life of your son Solomon.

13

"Go at once to King David and say to him, 'Have you not, my lord, O king, sworn to your maidservant, saying, "Surely Solomon your son shall be king after me, and he shall sit on my throne"? Why then has Adonijah become king?'
