""And this l declare unto you:
:20:07
only in peace can lsrael prosper
and be made great, not in strife.""
:20:15
And again, the Lord God Jehovah
spoke to his servant David:
:20:21
""Behold, a son has been born unto thee,
a man of peace.""
:20:26
""Wherefore,
thou hast named him Solomon.""
:20:32
""And l will establish
his kingdom for ever.""
:20:38
- The kingdom is mine!
- God wills it otherwise.
:20:40
You made good use
of your time alone with him.
:20:43
You used his weakness against me.
:20:45
- l knew nothing of this.
- You lie.
:20:47
- You were always a weaver of words.
- You accuse him falsely.
:20:51
After you"ve chosen him over me?
Theirs should be the choice.
:20:55
- Let them choose.
- Aye, hear us.
:20:57
- Adonijah.
- (crowd) Adonijah.
:20:59
- You, the elders, what say you?
- Accept the will of God.
:21:03
- The crown is mine. l shall fight for it.
- Adonijah is the rightful heir.
:21:06
Act not with violence
lest the wrath of God fall upon you.
:21:10
l have never done anything
to deprive you.
:21:12
Words from the mouth of a hypocrite.
:21:15
lsn"t yours the act of a hypocrite
in coming to greet your father?
:21:19
You who proclaimed yourself king
even though you knew David lived.
:21:24
Has Hezrai spoken truly?
:21:26
l did not know that
you had sent him to spy on me.
:21:29
Could you not wait
until the breath left my body?
:21:32
- l am weary with waiting.
- The king must respect and obey the law.
:21:36
ln proclaiming yourself,
you have violated the law of God and man.
:21:40
l claimed what was mine by right,
and l shall never relinquish that right.
:21:46
How long will it take them
to discover his incompetence?
:21:49
Solomon king? lmpossible.
:21:51
Now it is revealed
out of the mouth of Adonijah himself
:21:56
why God hath turned his face from him.
:21:58
The wisdom of God
passeth all understanding.
