21 De outra sorte acontecerá, quando meu senhor o rei descansar com seus pais, que eu e meu filho Salomão seremos tidos por culpados.
22 E estando ainda falando ela com o rei, eis que Natã profeta, que veio.
23 E deram aviso ao rei, dizendo: Eis que Natã profeta: o qual quando entrou ao rei, prostrou-se diante do rei inclinando seu rosto à terra.
24 E disse Natã: Rei senhor meu, disseste tu: Adonias reinará depois de mim, e ele se sentará em meu trono?
25 Porque hoje desceu, e matou bois, e animais engordados, e muitas ovelhas, e convidou a todos os filhos do rei, e aos capitães do exército, e também a Abiatar sacerdote; e eis que, estão comendo e bebendo diante dele, e disseram: Viva o rei Adonias!
