1 Kings 1:37-39

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³⁷ As the Lord has been with my lord the king, so may he be with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord King David.’

³⁸ So the priest Zadok, the prophet Nathan, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down and had Solomon ride on King David’s mule, and led him to Gihon. ³⁹ There the priest Zadok took the horn of oil from the tent and anointed Solomon. Then they blew the trumpet, and all the people said, ‘Long live King Solomon!’
