New International Version NIV
1 Solomon son of David took firm control of his kingdom, for the LORD his God was with him and made him very powerful.
1
Solomon son of David established himself firmly over his kingdom, for the LORD his God was with him and made him exceedingly great.
2 Solomon called together all the leaders of Israel—the generals and captains of the army, the judges, and all the political and clan leaders.
2
Then Solomon spoke to all Israel—to the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, to the judges and to all the leaders in Israel, the heads of families—
3 Then he led the entire assembly to the place of worship in Gibeon, for God’s Tabernacle was located there. (This was the Tabernacle that Moses, the LORD ’s servant, had made in the wilderness.)
3
and Solomon and the whole assembly went to the high place at Gibeon, for God’s tent of meeting was there, which Moses the LORD’s servant had made in the wilderness.
