18 But now Adonijah has become king, and you, my lord the king, do not know about it.

18 And now, behold, Adonijah reigneth; and now, my lord the king, thou knowest it not:

18 But instead, Adonijah has made himself king, and my lord the king does not even know about it.

18 So now, look! Adonijah has become king; and now, my lord the king, you do not know about it.

18 But now, unknown to you, Adonijah has become king.

18 And now, behold, Adonijah reigneth; and thou, my lord the king, knowest it not:

18 And now behold, Adonijah is king; and now, my lord the king, thou knowest it not.

18 But now, you see, Adonijah has become king, and you don’t ⸤even⸥ know anything about it, Your Majesty.

18 Now look, Adonijah has become king. And, my lord the king, you didn’t know it.

18 But now suddenly Adonijah has become king, though you, my lord the king, do not know it.

18 But now, look! Adonijah has become king! And now, my lord the king, you do not know!

18 “But now Adonijah has made himself king. And you don’t even know about it.

18 “Now, behold, Adonijah is king; and now, my lord the king, you do not know it.
