1 Kings 1:13

Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?

KJV

Vade, et ingredere ad regem David, et dic ei : Nonne tu, domine mi rex, jurasti mihi ancillæ tuæ, dicens : Salomon filius tuus regnabit post me, et ipse sedebit in solio meo ? quare ergo regnat Adonias ?

Vulgate

δεῦρο εἴσελθε πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα Δαυεὶδ καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτὸν λέγουσα Οὐχὶ σύ, κύριέ μου βασιλεῦ, ὤμοσας τῇ δούλῃ σου λέγων ὅτι Ὁ υἱός σου Σαλωμὼν βασιλεύσει μετ’ ἐμέ, καὶ αὐτὸς καθιεῖται ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου μου; καὶ τί ὅτι ἐβασίλευσεν Ἀδωνείας;

LXX

Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thy handmaid, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign?
