15 Bath-Schéba se rendit dans la chambre du roi. Il était très vieux; et Abischag, la Sunamite, le servait.

16 Bath-Schéba s’inclina et se prosterna devant le roi. Et le roi dit: Qu’as-tu?

17 Elle lui répondit: Mon seigneur, tu as juré à ta servante par l’Éternel, ton Dieu, en disant: Salomon, ton fils, régnera après moi, et il s’assiéra sur mon trône.
