1 Chronicles 29:22-24

New International Reader's Version

²² They ate and drank with great joy that day. They did it in front of the Lord. Then they announced a second time that Solomon was king. He was the son of David. They anointed Solomon in front of the Lord. They anointed him to be ruler. They also anointed Zadok to be priest.

²³ So Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord. He ruled as king in place of his father David. Things went well with him. All the people of Israel obeyed him. ²⁴ All the officers and warriors promised to be completely faithful to King Solomon. So did all of King David’s sons.
