1 Chr 29:24 All the officials, the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David pledged allegiance to King Solomon.
1 Chr 29:25 The LORD highly exalted Solomon in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed on him royal majesty which had not been on any king before him in Israel.
1 Chr 29:26 ¶ Now David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.
1 Chr 29:27 The period which he reigned over Israel was forty years; he reigned in Hebron seven years and in Jerusalem thirty-three years.
1 Chr 29:28 Then he died in a ripe old age, full of days, riches and honor; and his son Solomon reigned in his place.
1 Chr 29:29 Now the acts of King David, from first to last, are written in the chronicles of Samuel the seer, in the chronicles of Nathan the prophet and in the chronicles of Gad the seer,
1 Chr 29:30 with all his reign, his power, and the circumstances which came on him, on Israel, and on all the kingdoms of the lands.
2 Chr 1:1 Now Solomon the son of David established himself securely over his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him and exalted him greatly.
2 Chr 1:2 ¶ Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the commanders of thousands and of hundreds and to the judges and to every leader in all Israel, the heads of the fathers' households.
2 Chr 1:3 Then Solomon and all the assembly with him went to the high place which was at Gibeon, for God's tent of meeting was there, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness.
2 Chr 1:4 However, David had brought up the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim to the place he had prepared for it, for he had pitched a tent for it in Jerusalem.
2 Chr 1:5 Now the bronze altar, which Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of the LORD, and Solomon and the assembly sought it out.
2 Chr 1:6 Solomon went up there before the LORD to the bronze altar which was at the tent of meeting, and offered a thousand burnt offerings on it.
2 Chr 1:7 ¶ In that night God appeared to Solomon and said to him, "Ask what I shall give you."
2 Chr 1:8 Solomon said to God, "You have dealt with my father David with great lovingkindness, and have made me king in his place.
2 Chr 1:9 "Now, O LORD God, Your promise to my father David is fulfilled, for You have made me king over a people as numerous as the dust of the earth.
2 Chr 1:10 "Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people, for who can rule this great people of Yours?"
2 Chr 1:11 God said to Solomon, "Because you had this in mind, and did not ask for riches, wealth or honor, or the life of those who hate you, nor have you even asked for long life, but you have asked for yourself wisdom and knowledge that you may rule My people over whom I have made you king,
2 Chr 1:13 So Solomon went from the high place which was at Gibeon, from the tent of meeting, to Jerusalem, and he reigned over Israel.
2 Chr 1:14 ¶ Solomon amassed chariots and horsemen. He had 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horsemen, and he stationed them in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem.
