← 1 Kings 1:36	1 Kings 1:37 (KJV)	1 Kings 1:38 →
And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, Amen: the LORD God of my lord the king say so [too].	As the LORD hath been with my lord the king, even so be he with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.	So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon king David's mule, and brought him to Gihon.
