1 Chronicles 29:22-30

22They ate and drank that day before the Lord with great rejoicing. They made Solomon the son of David king a second time, and anointed him as ruler for the Lord and Zadok as [high] priest.

23Then Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king in place of David his father; and he prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.

24All of the leaders and warriors, and also all the sons of King David, pledged allegiance to King Solomon.

25The Lord highly exalted Solomon in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed on him royal majesty which had not been on any king before him in Israel.

26Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.

27The time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; he reigned seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.

28He died in a good old age [his seventy-first year], full of days (satisfied), riches and honor. Solomon his son reigned in his place.

29Now the acts of King David, from first to last, are written in the chronicles (records) of Samuel the seer, in the chronicles of Nathan the prophet, and in the chronicles of Gad the seer,

30with [accounts of] all his reign, and his power, and the times and circumstances which came on him, on Israel, and on all the kingdoms of the [surrounding] lands.
