2 Samuel 25:21-26 (Show Context)

21 If a decision is not made, when my master the king is buried with his ancestors, my son Solomon and I will be considered state criminals."

22 Just then, while she was still speaking to the king, Nathan the prophet arrived. 23 The king was told, "Nathan the prophet is here." Nathan entered and bowed before the king with his face to the floor. 24 Nathan said, "My master, O king, did you announce, 'Adonijah will be king after me; he will sit on my throne'? 25 For today he has gone down and sacrificed many cattle, steers, and sheep and has invited all the king's sons, the army commanders, and Abiathar the priest. At this moment they are having a feast in his presence, and they have declared, 'Long live King Adonijah!' 26 But he did not invite me - your servant - or Zadok the priest, or Benaiah son of Jehoiada, or your servant Solomon.
