Solomon is made king

32 And king David said, Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And they entered into the presence of the king.
33 And the king said unto them, Take with you the servants of your lord, and have Solomon my son ride upon my mule; and bring him down to Gihon.
34 And Zadok the priest, with Nathan the prophet, shall there anoint him king over Israel: then shall ye blow the trumpet, and shall say, Long live King Solomon!
35 Then shall ye go up after him, and he shall come and sit on my throne, and he shall reign in my stead: for I have commanded him to be a guide over Israel and over Judah.
36 Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: so saith the Lord God of my lord the king.
37 As the LORD was with my lord the king, so be it with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.
38 Then came down Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and made Solomon ride on king David's mule, and brought him to Gihon.
39 And Zadok the priest took the vessel of oil from the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon: and they blew the trumpet, and all the people said, Long live Solomon the king!
40 And all the people went up after him, and the people played the pipes, and rejoiced with great joy: so that the earth rang with their cry.
41 And Adonijah heard it, and all the guests that were with him, who had made an end of eating: also Joab heard the sound of the trumpets, and he said, Why is there such a noise in the tumultuous city?
42 While he was still speaking, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came, and Adonijah said, Go in, for you are a mighty man, and you will bring good news.
43 And Jonathan answered and said to Adonijah, Surely our lord king David hath made Solomon king.
44 And the king sent with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites: and they made him ride on the king's mule.
45 And Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, anointed him king in Gihon;
46 And Solomon also sitteth on the throne of the kingdom.
47 And also the king's servants came to bless our lord King David, saying, Thy God make the name of Solomon to be better than thy name; and make his throne greater than your throne. And the king bowed on the couch.
48 And the king also said thus: Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who has given him today one to sit on my throne, that my eyes may see him.
49 Then all the guests who were with Adonijah shuddered and arose, and each one went his way.
50 But Adonijah feared Solomon, and arose, and went, and took hold of the horns of the altar.
51 And it was told Solomon, saying, Behold, Adonijah fears king Solomon: for, behold, he hath taken of the horns of the altar, saying, King Solomon swear to me this day, that he will not slay his servant with the sword.
52 And Solomon said, If he be a good man, not one of his hairs shall fall to the ground; but if wickedness is found in him, he shall die.
53 And king Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar; and he came and prostrated himself before king Solomon, and Solomon said to him, Go to your house.
