1 Kings 2:14 In-Context

12 Solomon took over on the throne of his father David; he had a firm grip on the kingdom.

14 And then, "May I say something to you?" "Go ahead," she said, "speak."

15 "You know that I had the kingdom right in my hands and everyone expected me to be king, and then the whole thing backfired and the kingdom landed in my brother's lap - God's doing.
