1 Kings 1:45-47

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁵ And Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet poured olive oil on Solomon at Gihon to make him king. Then they went into the city, shouting with joy. Now the whole city is excited. That is the noise you hear. ⁴⁶ Solomon has now become the king. ⁴⁷ All the king’s officers have come to tell King David that he has done a good thing.

And may your God make Solomon an even greater king than you.’” Jonathan continued, “And King David bowed down on his bed to worship God.
