43And JonathanH3129 answered and saidH559 to AdonijahH138, Verily our lordH113 kingH4428 DavidH1732 hath made SolomonH8010 kingH4428: 44and the kingH4428 hath sentH7971 with him ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, and BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and they have caused him to rideH7392 upon the king’sH4428 muleH6506; 45and ZadokH6659 the priestH3548 and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030 have anointedH4886 him kingH4428 in GihonH1521; and they are comeH5927 up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This is the noise that ye have heardH8085. 46And alsoH1571 SolomonH8010 sitteth on the throneH3678 of the kingdom. 47And moreover the king’sH4428 servantsH5650 cameH935 to blessH1288 our lordH113 kingH4428 DavidH1732, sayingH559, Thy GodH430 makeH1431 the nameH8034 of SolomonH8010 betterH3190 than thy nameH8034, and makeH1431 his throneH3678 greaterH1431 than thy throneH3678: and the kingH4428 bowedH7812 himself upon the bedH4904. 48And alsoH1571 thusH3602 saidH559 the kingH4428, BlessedH1288 be Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, who hath givenH5414 oneH834 to sitH3427 on my throneH3678 this dayH3117, mine eyesH5869 even seeingH7200 it.
