22 and on that day they ate and drank in the Lord’s presence with great rejoicing. Then for a second time they proclaimed David’s son Solomon king, and they anointed him for the Lord as ruler, and Zadok as priest.
23 Thereafter Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king succeeding his father David; he prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.
24 All the commanders and warriors, and also all the other sons of King David, swore allegiance to King Solomon.
25 And the Lord exalted Solomon greatly in the eyes of all Israel, giving him a glorious reign such as had not been enjoyed by any king over Israel before him.
26 Thus David, the son of Jesse, had reigned over all Israel.
27 He was king over Israel for forty years: he was king seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
28 He died at a ripe old age, rich in years and wealth and glory, and his son Solomon succeeded him as king.
