1 Kings 1:29-31

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁹ The king swore and said: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress,

³⁰ Even as I swore to thee by the Lord the God of Israel, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead, so will I do this day.

³¹ And Bethsabee bowing with her face to the earth worshipped the king, saying: May my lord David live for ever.
