1 Kings 1:27
Is this thing done by my lord the king, and thou hast not shewed it unto thy servant, who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him? Is this thing done by my lord the king, and thou hast not shewed it unto thy servant, who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?
Bathsheba came to David to ask whether he himself had arranged for Adonijah to succeed him on the throne without telling her of the decision. Her question put before the aged king the fact that Adonijah's succession had been publicly announced as settled. That confrontation roused David to act at once in harmony with God's direction that Solomon, not Adonijah, should be king after him.
