And he hath slain oxen and fat cattle and sheep in abundance, and hath called all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the host: but Solomon thy servant hath he not called.

Verse 19 is found in chapter 1 of 1 Kings. Nathan informs Bathsheba about Adonijah’s attempt and instructs her to remind David of his promise concerning Solomon. The prophetic intervention turns the succession into an issue that does not depend solely on palace maneuvering. Bathsheba and Nathan act together to bring the king to a decision. The scene also shows how the memory of a previous promise can become the basis for intervention during a political crisis.

Er hat Ochsen und gemästetes Vieh und viele Schafe geopfert und hat geladen alle Söhne des Königs, dazu Abjathar, den Priester, und Joab den Feldhauptmann; aber deinen Knecht Salomo hat er nicht geladen.
Ha matado bueyes, y animales engordados, y muchas ovejas, y ha convidado a todos los hijos del rey, y a Abiathar sacerdote, y a Joab general del ejército; mas a Salomón tu siervo no ha convidado.
Ha sacrificado muchos toros, animales engordados y ovejas, y ha invitado a todos los hijos del rey, al sacerdote Abiatar y a Joab, jefe del ejército; pero no ha invitado a tu servidor Salomón.
Il a tué des boeufs, des veaux gras et des brebis en quantité; et il a invité tous les fils du roi, le sacrificateur Abiathar, et Joab, chef de l'armée, mais il n'a point invité Salomon, ton serviteur.
Ed ha ammazzati buoi, ed animali grassi, e pecore, in gran numero; ed ha invitati tutti i figliuoli del re, e il sacerdote Ebiatar, e Ioab, capo dell’esercito; ma non ha chiamato il tuo servitore Salomone.
E matou vacas, e animais cevados, e ovelhas em abundância, e convidou a todos os filhos do rei, e a Abiatar, o sacerdote, e a Joabe, capitão do exército, mas a teu servo Salomão não convidou.
