1 Kings 1:40-42

Expanded Bible

⁴⁰ All the people followed Solomon into the city. Playing flutes and ·shouting for joy [^Lrejoicing with great joy], they made so much noise the ·ground [earth] shook.

⁴¹ At this time Adonijah and all the guests with him ·were [heard it while] finishing their meal. When he heard the sound from the ·trumpet [ram’s horn], Joab asked, “·What does all that noise from the city mean [Why is the city in such an uproar]?”

⁴² While Joab was speaking, Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest arrived. Adonijah said, “Come in! You are an ·important [worthy; honest; valiant] man, so you must be bringing good news.”
