1 Kings 1:33-35

The Voice

King David: ³³ Lead my servants and my son, Solomon, down to Gihon. Give Solomon one of my own mules to ride.

³⁴ Zadok and Nathan, listen. When you arrive at Gihon, anoint Solomon as Israel’s king. Sound the trumpet, and proclaim, “May King Solomon have a long life!” ³⁵ Then follow after him, for he will then sit on my throne and replace me as king. I have named him ruler over Israel and Judah even though he is not my oldest son.
