20
Then David said to all the community, "Now bless ADONAI your God." All the community blessed ADONAI, the God of their ancestors, bowing their heads and prostrating themselves before ADONAI and before the king.
21
On the following day they presented sacrifices to ADONAI and offered burnt offerings to ADONAI - a thousand bulls, a thousand rams and a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings - and sacrifices in abundance for all Isra'el.
22
They ate and drank before ADONAI that day with great joy. Then, for the second time, they made Shlomo the son of David king, anointing him before ADONAI to be king, and Tzadok to be cohen.
23
Shlomo sat on the throne of ADONAI as king in place of David his father and prospered, and all Isra'el obeyed him.
24
All the leaders, the warrior-heroes and likewise the sons of King David submitted themselves to Shlomo the king.
25
ADONAI gave Shlomo exceedingly great power, in full view of all Isra'el, and bestowed on him royal majesty such as had not been seen on any king before him in Isra'el.
26
Now David the son of Yishai ruled over all Isra'el.
27
The duration of his reign over Isra'el was forty years; he reigned seven years in Hevron, and he reigned thirty-three years in Yerushalayim.
28
Then he died, at a ripe old age, full of years, riches and honor; and Shlomo his son reigned in his place.
29
The activities of David the king, from first to last, are written in the records of Sh'mu'el the seer, Natan the prophet and Gad the seer,
30
with all his reign and his power, and the events that he, Isra'el and the kingdoms of other countries experienced.
