1 Chronicles 29:21-25
New International Version
Solomon Acknowledged as King(A)
21 The next day they made sacrifices to the Lord and presented burnt offerings to him:(B) a thousand bulls, a thousand rams and a thousand male lambs, together with their drink offerings, and other sacrifices in abundance for all Israel.(C) 22 They ate and drank with great joy(D) in the presence of the Lord that day.
Then they acknowledged Solomon son of David as king a second time, anointing him before the Lord to be ruler and Zadok(E) to be priest. 23 So Solomon sat(F) on the throne(G) of the Lord as king in place of his father David. He prospered and all Israel obeyed him. 24 All the officers and warriors, as well as all of King David’s sons,(H) pledged their submission to King Solomon.
25 The Lord highly exalted(I) Solomon in the sight of all Israel and bestowed on him royal splendor(J) such as no king over Israel ever had before.(K)

The Enthronement of Solomon
Then, for a second time,(B) they made David’s son Solomon king; they anointed him[a] as the Lord’s ruler,(C) and Zadok as the priest. 23 Solomon sat on the Lord’s throne as king in place of his father David. He prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.(D) 24 All the leaders and the mighty men, and all of King David’s sons as well, pledged their allegiance to King Solomon. 25 The Lord highly exalted Solomon in the sight of all Israel(E) and bestowed on him such royal majesty as had not been bestowed on any king over Israel before him.(F)
