1 Kings 2:14 In-Context

12 So Solomon sat on the throne of his father David. His position as king was made secure.

13 Adonijah was the son of David's wife Haggith. He went to Bathsheba. She was Solomon's mother. She asked Adonijah, "Have you come in peace?" He answered, "Yes. I've come in peace."

14 He continued, "I want to ask you something." "Go ahead," she replied.

15 He said, "As you know, the kingdom belonged to me. The whole nation of Israel thought of me as their king. But now things have changed. The kingdom belongs to my brother. The LORD has given it to him.

16 But I have a favor to ask of you. Don't say no to me." "Go ahead," she said.
