1 Kings 1:38-44
38So 1Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, 2the Cherethites, and the Pelethites went down and had Solomon ride on King David’s mule, and brought him to 3Gihon. 39And Zadok the priest then 4took the horn of oil from the tent and 5anointed Solomon. Then they 6blew the trumpet, and all the people said, “7Long live King Solomon!” 40And all the people went up after him, and the people were playing on flutes and rejoicing with great joy, so that the earth 8shook at their noise.
41Now Adonijah and all the guests who were with him heard this as they finished eating. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, “Why is the 9city making such an uproar?” 42While he was still speaking, behold, 10Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came. Then Adonijah said, “Come in, for 11you are a valiant man and you bring good news.” 43But Jonathan replied to Adonijah, “On the contrary! Our lord King David has made Solomon king! 44The king has also sent with him Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the Cherethites, and the Pelethites; and they have mounted him on the king’s mule.
