1 Kings 1:31-37

31Then BathshebaH1339 bowedH6915 with her faceH639 to the groundH776, and prostratedH7812 herself 1before the kingH4428 and saidH559, “2May my lordH113 KingH4428 DavidH1732 liveH2421 foreverH5769.”

32Then KingH4428 DavidH1732 saidH559, “CallH7121 to me 3ZadokH6659 the priestH3548, NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, and BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077.” And they cameH935 into the king’sH4428 presenceH6440. 33The kingH4428 saidH559 to them, “TakeH3947 with you 4the servantsH5650 of your lordH113, and have my sonH1121 SolomonH8010 rideH7392 on my own muleH6506, and bringH3381 him downH3381 to 5GihonH1521. 34Let ZadokH6659 the priestH3548 and NathanH5416 the prophetH5030 6anointH4886 him thereH8033 as kingH4428 overH5921 IsraelH3478, and 7blowH8628 the trumpetH7782 and sayH559, ‘8Long liveH2421 KingH4428 SolomonH8010!’ 35Then you shall comeH5927 up afterH310 him, and he shall comeH935 and sitH3427 on my throneH3678 and be kingH4427 in my placeH8478; for I have appointedH6680 him to be rulerH5057 overH5921 IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.” 36BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077 answeredH6030 the kingH4428 and saidH559, “AmenH543! ThusH3651 may the LordH3068, the GodH430 of my lordH113 the kingH4428, sayH559. 379As the LordH3068 has beenH1961 with my lordH113 the kingH4428, soH3651 may He be with SolomonH8010, and 10makeH1431 his throneH3678 greaterH1431 thanH4480 the throneH3678 of my lordH113 KingH4428 DavidH1732!”
