1 Chronicles 29:22-30

22They ate and drank with great joy in the Lord’s presence that day. Then, for a second time, they made David’s son Solomon king; they anointed him as the Lord’s ruler, and Zadok as the priest.

23Solomon sat on the Lord’s throne as king in place of his father David. He prospered, and all Israel obeyed him.

24All the leaders and the mighty men, and all of King David’s sons as well, pledged their allegiance to King Solomon.

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

26David son of Jesse was king over all Israel.

27The length of his reign over Israel was forty years; he reigned in Hebron for seven years and in Jerusalem for thirty-three.

28He died at a good old age, full of days, riches, and honor, and his son Solomon became king in his place.

29As for the events of King David’s reign, from beginning to end, note that they are written in the Events of the Seer Samuel, the Events of the Prophet Nathan, and the Events of the Seer Gad,

30along with all his reign, his might, and the incidents that affected him and Israel and all the kingdoms of the surrounding lands.
