1 Kings 1:38-48

38And ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, and BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites wentH3381 downH3381, and caused SolomonH8010 to rideH7392 upon kingH4428 David's muleH6506, and broughtH3381 him to GihonH1521.

39And ZadokH6659 the priestH3548 tookH3947 the hornH7161 of oilH8081 out of the tabernacle, and anointedH4886 SolomonH8010. And they blewH8628 the trumpetH7782; and all the peopleH5971 saidH559, Long liveH2421 kingH4428 SolomonH8010!

40And all the peopleH5971 cameH5927 up after him, and the peopleH5971 piped with pipes, and rejoiced with greatH1419 joyH8057, so that the earthH776 rent with the soundH6963 of them.

41And AdonijahH138 and all the guests that were with him heardH8085 [it] as they were finishing their repast; and JoabH3097 heardH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and he saidH559, Wherefore this noise of the city in an uproarH1993?

42While he yetH5750 spokeH1696, behold, JonathanH3129 the sonH1121 of AbiatharH54 the priestH3548 cameH935; and AdonijahH138 saidH559 [to him], ComeH935 in; for thou art a valiant manH376, and bringest goodH2896 newsH1319.

43And JonathanH3129 answered and saidH559 to AdonijahH138, Indeed, our lordH113 kingH4428 DavidH1732 has made SolomonH8010 kingH4428.

44And the kingH4428 has 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's muleH6506;

45and ZadokH6659 the priestH3548 and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030 have anointedH4886 him kingH4428 at GihonH1521; and they are comeH5927 up from thence rejoicing, so that the city is in an uproar. This is the noise which ye have heardH8085.

46And alsoH1571 SolomonH8010 is sittingH3427 on the throneH3678 of the kingdom.

47And moreover the king's servantsH5650 cameH935 to blessH1288 our lordH113 kingH4428 DavidH1732, sayingH559, Thy 1GodH430 makeH1431 the nameH8034 of SolomonH8010 more excellent than thy nameH8034, and makeH1431 his throneH3678 greaterH1431 than thy throneH3678! And the kingH4428 bowedH7812 himself on the bedH4904.

48And alsoH1571 thusH3602 saidH559 the kingH4428: BlessedH1288 be Jehovah, the 2GodH430 of IsraelH3478, who has givenH5414 oneH834 to sitH3427 on my throneH3678 this dayH3117, mine eyesH5869 even seeingH7200 it.
