1 Kings 1:28-34
28King David responded, “Call Bathsheba!” So she came back in and stood before the king.
29And the king repeated his vow: “As surely as the Lord lives, who has rescued me from every danger,
30your son Solomon will be the next king and will sit on my throne this very day, just as I vowed to you before the Lord, the God of Israel.”
31Then Bathsheba bowed down with her face to the ground before the king and exclaimed, “May my lord King David live forever!”
32Then King David ordered, “Call Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada.” When they came into the king’s presence,
33the king said to them, “Take Solomon and my officials down to Gihon Spring. Solomon is to ride on my own mule.
34There Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet are to anoint him king over Israel. Blow the ram’s horn and shout, ‘Long live King Solomon!’
