Adonijah heard of all this. And when Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he asked what all the shouting and cheering in the city was about. Then Jonathan, son of Abiathar the priest came. He said that David had made Solomon king. And all this had happened. He was anointed at Gihon and he was already sitting on the throne and the servants had already gone to the king and praised him. Then they spoke their blessing to David as he was in his bed and David bowed and expressed his satisfaction saying, “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who has today set my son Solomon on the throne.”
