1 Kings 1:31
1:31 Bathsheba bowed down to the king with her face to the floor
and said, “May my master, King David, live forever!”
1 Kings 1:34-39
1:34 There Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet will anoint
him king over Israel; then blow the trumpet and declare, ‘Long live King Solomon!’
1:35 Then follow him up as he comes and sits on my throne. He will be king in my place; I have decreed
that he will be ruler over Israel and Judah.”
1:36 Benaiah son of Jehoiada responded
to the king: “So be it!
May the
Lord God of my master the king confirm it!
1:37 As the
Lord is with my master the king, so may he be with Solomon, and may he make him an even greater king than my master King David!”
1:38 So Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah son of Jehoiada, the Kerethites, and the Pelethites went down, put Solomon on King David’s mule, and led him to Gihon.
1:39 Zadok the priest took a horn filled with olive oil from the tent and poured it on Solomon; the trumpet was blown and all the people declared, “Long live King Solomon!”
