Expanded Bible

³⁸ So Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada left with the Kerethites and Pelethites [^Cking’s bodyguard]. They put Solomon on King David’s mule and took him to the spring called Gihon. ³⁹ Zadok the priest took the ·container [flask; horn] of olive oil from the ·Holy Tent [sacred tent; ^Ltent] and ·poured the oil on Solomon’s head to show he was the king [^Lanointed Solomon]. Then they blew the ·trumpet [ram’s horn], and all the people shouted, “Long live King Solomon!” ⁴⁰ All the people followed Solomon into the city. Playing flutes and ·shouting for joy [^Lrejoicing with great joy], they made so much noise the ·ground [earth] shook.
