1 Kings 1:12 in Context — 1 Kings 1

10 Mais il n’invita point Nathan le prophète, ni Benaja, ni les vaillants hommes, ni Salomon, son frère.

11 Alors Nathan dit à Bath-Schéba, mère de Salomon: N’as-tu pas appris qu’Adonija, fils de Haggith, est devenu roi, sans que notre seigneur David le sache?

12 Viens donc maintenant, je te donnerai un conseil, afin que tu sauves ta vie et la vie de ton fils Salomon.

13 Va, entre chez le roi David, et dis-lui: O roi mon seigneur, n’as-tu pas juré à ta servante, en disant: Salomon, ton fils, régnera après moi, et il s’assiéra sur mon trône? Pourquoi donc Adonija règne-t-il?

14 Et voici, pendant que tu parleras là avec le roi, j’entrerai moi-même après toi, et je compléterai tes paroles.
