Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel. ] As before related in this book, and in the second book of Samuel; his reign being long and glorious.
24
But also all [the] princes, and mighty men, and all the sons of king David, gave (the) hand, that is, (in) swearing or steadfast(ly) promising to be faithful, and were (made) subject to Solomon the king. (And all the princes/all the leaders, and the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David, raised up their hands to swear, or to steadfastly promise, to be faithful, and were made subject to King Solomon.)
25
Therefore the Lord magnified, or made great, Solomon upon all Israel, and gave to him (such) glory of the realm, what manner (of) glory no king of Israel (had ever) had before him.
26
And (so) David, the son of Jesse, reigned upon all Israel;
27
and the days in which he reigned upon Israel were forty years; in Hebron he reigned seven years, and in Jerusalem he reigned three and thirty years.
28
And he died in [a] good eld (age), and was full of days, and riches, and glory; and Solomon, his son, reigned for him.
