1 Kings 1:25-27

Modern English Version

²⁵ For he has gone down this day and has slain oxen, fat cattle, and sheep in abundance and has invited all the king’s sons, the commanders of the guard, and Abiathar the priest, and they eat and drink with him, saying, ‘God save King Adonijah!’ ²⁶ But he has not invited me, your servant, or Zadok the priest or Benaiah the son of Jehoiada or your servant Solomon. ²⁷ Is this thing done by my lord the king, and you have not let your servants know who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?”
