1 Chronicles 29:21-25
New King James Version
Solomon Anointed King(A)
21 And they made sacrifices to the Lord and offered burnt offerings to the Lord on the next day: a thousand bulls, a thousand rams, a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and (B)sacrifices in abundance for all Israel. 22 So they ate and drank before the Lord with great gladness on that day. And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and (C)anointed him before the Lord to be the leader, and Zadok to be priest. 23 Then Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him. 24 All the leaders and the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David, (D)submitted[a] themselves to King Solomon. 25 So the Lord exalted Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and (E)bestowed on him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.
