1 Kings 1:35-37

New Century Version

³⁵ Then come back up here with him. He will sit on my throne and rule in my place, because he is the one I have chosen to be the ruler over Israel and Judah.”

³⁶ Benaiah son of Jehoiada answered the king, “Amen! This is what the Lord, the God of my master, has declared! ³⁷ The Lord has always helped you, our king. May he also help Solomon and make King Solomon’s throne an even greater throne than yours.”
