Then king David answered and said ,
Call to me Bath-sheba .
And she came into the king '
s presence ,
and stood before the king .
asv @
1Kings:1:29 @
And the king sware ,
and said ,
As Jehovah liveth ,
who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity ,
asv @
1Kings:1:30 @
verily as I sware unto thee by Jehovah ,
the God of Israel ,
saying ,
Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me ,
and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead ;
verily so will I do this day .

1Kings:1:31 @
Then Bath-sheba bowed with her face to the earth ,
and did obeisance to the king ,
and said ,
Let my lord king David live for ever .
asv @
1Kings:1:32 @
And king David said ,
Call to me Zadok the priest ,
and Nathan the prophet ,
and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada .
And they came before the king .
asv @
1Kings:1:33 @
And the king said unto them ,
Take with you the servants of your lord ,
and cause Solomon my son to ride upon mine own mule ,
and bring him down to Gihon :
asv @
1Kings:1:34 @
and let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel ;
and blow ye the trumpet ,
and say ,
Long live king Solomon .
asv @
1Kings:1:35 @
Then ye shall come up after him ,
and he shall come and sit upon my throne ;
for he shall be king in my stead ;
and I have appointed him to be prince over Israel and over Judah .

1Kings:1:36 @
And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king ,
and said ,
Amen :
Jehovah ,
the God of my lord the king ,
say so too .
asv @
1Kings:1:37 @
As Jehovah hath been with my lord the king ,
even so be he with Solomon ,
and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David .
asv @
1Kings:1:38 @
So Zadok the priest ,
and Nathan the prophet ,
and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada ,
and the Cherethites and the Pelethites ,
went down ,
and caused Solomon to ride upon king David '
s mule ,
and brought him to Gihon .
asv @
1Kings:1:39 @
And Zadok the priest took the horn of oil out of the Tent ,
and anointed Solomon .
And they blew the trumpet ;
and all the people said ,
Long live king Solomon .
asv @
1Kings:1:40 @
And all the people came up after him ,
and the people piped with pipes ,
and rejoiced with great joy ,
so that the earth rent with the sound of them .
asv @
1Kings:1:41 @
And Adonijah and all the guests that were with him heard it as they had made an end of eating .
And when Joab heard the sound of the trumpet ,
he said ,
Wherefore is this noise of the city being in an uproar ?
asv @
1Kings:1:42 @
While he yet spake ,
behold ,
Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came :
and Adonijah said ,
Come in ;
for thou art a worthy man ,
and bringest good tidings .
asv @
1Kings:1:43 @
And Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah ,
Verily our lord king David hath made Solomon king :
asv @
1Kings:1:44 @
and the king hath sent with him Zadok the priest ,
and Nathan the prophet ,
and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada ,
and the Cherethites and the Pelethites ;
and they have caused him to ride upon the king '
s mule ;
asv @
1Kings:1:45 @
and Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon ;
and they are come up from thence rejoicing ,
so that the city rang again .
This is the noise that ye have heard .
asv @
1Kings:1:46 @
And also Solomon sitteth on the throne of the kingdom .
asv @
1Kings:1:47 @
And moreover the king '
s servants came to bless our lord king David ,
saying ,
Thy God make the name of Solomon better than thy name ,
and make his throne greater than thy throne :
and the king bowed himself upon the bed .
asv @
1Kings:1:48 @
And also thus said the king ,
Blessed be Jehovah ,
the God of Israel ,
who hath given one to sit on my throne this day ,
mine eyes even seeing it .
asv @
1Kings:1:49 @
And all the guests of Adonijah were afraid ,
and rose up ,
and went every man his way .
asv @
1Kings:1:50 @
And Adonijah feared because of Solomon ;
and he arose ,
and went ,
and caught hold on the horns of the altar .
asv @
1Kings:1:51 @
And it was told Solomon ,
saying ,
Behold ,
Adonijah feareth king Solomon ;
for ,
lo ,
he hath laid hold on the horns of the altar ,
saying ,
Let king Solomon swear unto me first that he will not slay his servant with the sword .
asv @
1Kings:1:52 @
And Solomon said ,
If he shall show himself a worthy man ,
there shall not a hair of him fall to the earth ;
but if wickedness be found in him ,
he shall die .
asv @
1Kings:1:53 @
So king Solomon sent ,
and they brought him down from the altar .
And he came and did obeisance to king Solomon ;
and Solomon said unto him ,
Go to thy house .
