1 Kings 1:19-21

New Life Version

¹⁹ He has killed many cattle and sheep and fat animals. He has asked all the king’s sons and Abiathar the religious leader and Joab the captain of the army to come. But he has not asked your servant Solomon to come. ²⁰ Now, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you. They are waiting for you to tell them who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him. ²¹ Or else as soon as my lord the king is dead, I and my son Solomon will be thought of as wrong-doers.”
