32Then KingH4428 DavidH1732 saidH559, “Call inH7121 for me ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, and BenaiahH1141 sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077.” So they cameH935 beforeH6440 the kingH4428.

33“TakeH3947 my servantsH5650H113 with youH5973,” saidH559 the kingH4428. “SetH7392 my sonH1121 SolomonH8010 onH5921 my own muleH6506 and take him downH3381 toH413 GihonH1521. 34ThereH8033 ZadokH6659 the priestH3548 and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030 are to anointH4886 himH853 kingH4428 overH5921 IsraelH3478. You are to blowH8628 the ram’s hornH7782 and declareH559, ‘Long liveH2421 KingH4428 SolomonH8010!’ 35Then you shall go upH5927 with himH310, and he is to comeH935 and sitH3427 onH5921 my throneH3678 andH1931 reignH4427 in my placeH8478. For I have appointedH6680 himH854 rulerH5057 overH5921 IsraelH3478 andH5921 JudahH3063.”

36“AmenH543,” repliedH6030 BenaiahH1141 sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077. “May the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of my lordH113 the kingH4428, soH3651H559 declare itH559. 37Just asH834 the LORDH3068 wasH1961 withH5973 my lordH113 the kingH4428, soH3651 may He beH1961 withH5973 SolomonH8010 and make his throneH3678 even greaterH1431 thanH3678 that of my lordH113 KingH4428 DavidH1732.”

38Then ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, and BenaiahH1141 sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, along with the CherethitesH3774 and PelethitesH6432, went downH3381 and setH7392 SolomonH8010 onH5921 KingH4428 David’sH1732 muleH6506, and they escortedH1980 himH853 toH5921 GihonH1521. 39ZadokH6659 the priestH3548 tookH3947 the hornH7161 of oilH8081 fromH4480 the tabernacleH168 and anointedH4886 SolomonH8010. Then they blewH8628 the ram’s hornH7782, and allH3605 the peopleH5971 proclaimedH559, “Long liveH2421 KingH4428 SolomonH8010!”
