1 Chronicles 29:23-30 ▼

23 Then Solomon sat on the throne of Yahweh as king instead of David his father; and he succeeded, and all Israel obeyed him.

24 And all the officials, the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David pledged allegiance to King Solomon.

25 And Yahweh highly exalted Solomon in the sight of all Israel, and granted to him royal majesty which had not been on any king before him in Israel.

26 Now David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.

27 And the time which he reigned over Israel was forty years; in Hebron he reigned seven years and in Jerusalem thirty-three years.

28 Then he died in a good old age, full of days, riches and glory; and his son Solomon became king in his place.

29 Now the acts of King David, from first to last, behold, they are written in the chronicles of Samuel the seer, in the chronicles of Nathan the prophet and in the chronicles of Gad the seer,

30 with all his reign, his might, and the circumstances which came on him, on Israel, and on all the kingdoms of the lands.
