18 Éternel, Dieu d’Abraham, d’Isaac et d’Israël, nos pères, maintiens à toujours dans le cœur de ton peuple ces dispositions et ces pensées, et affermis son cœur en toi.

19 Donne à mon fils Salomon un cœur dévoué à l’observation de tes commandements, de tes préceptes et de tes lois, afin qu’il mette en pratique toutes ces choses, et qu’il bâtisse le palais pour lequel j’ai fait des préparatifs.

20 David dit à toute l’assemblée: Bénissez l’Éternel, votre Dieu! Et toute l’assemblée bénit l’Éternel, le Dieu de leurs pères. Ils s’inclinèrent et se prosternèrent devant l’Éternel et devant le roi.

21 Le lendemain de ce jour, ils offrirent en sacrifice et en holocauste à l’Éternel mille taureaux, mille béliers et mille agneaux, avec les libations ordinaires, et d’autres sacrifices en grand nombre pour tout Israël.

22 Ils mangèrent et burent ce jour-là devant l’Éternel avec une grande joie, ils proclamèrent roi pour la seconde fois Salomon, fils de David, ils l’oignirent devant l’Éternel comme chef, et ils oignirent Tsadok comme sacrificateur.
