Depart and go to King David and say to him, Have you not sworn to your maidservant, my lord, O king, saying, Surely your son Solomon shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? Why then has Adonijah become king?

And she said to him, My lord, you have sworn by Jehovah your God to your maidservant, saying, Surely Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.

And Solomon sat on the throne of his father David; and his kingdom was firmly established.

And he said, You know that the kingdom was mine, and all Israel had set their faces toward me, to reign. However, the kingdom has been turned around, and has become my brother's; for it was his from Jehovah.

So when David was old and satisfied with days, he made his son Solomon king over Israel.

However Jehovah the God of Israel chose me above all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever, for He has chosen Judah as the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father, and among the sons of my father, He has been pleased to make me king over all Israel.

And of all my sons (for Jehovah has given me many sons) He has chosen my son Solomon to sit on the throne of the kingdom of Jehovah, over Israel.

Yet, I have set My King on My holy hill of Zion.

i1 [A Psalm for Solomon.] i0 par Give the king Your justice, O God, and Your righteousness to the king's Son.

He will judge Your people in righteousness, and Your lowly with justice.
