1 Kings 2:12

So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and fell upon him so that he died. Thus the kingdom was established in the hands of Solomon.

Now David became old and full of days, and he made his son Solomon king over Israel.

Then Solomon sat on the throne of Yahweh as king instead of David his father; and he succeeded, and all Israel obeyed him.

Now Solomon the son of David strengthened himself over his kingdom, and Yahweh his God was with him and highly exalted him.
