Then ye shall come up after him, that he may come and sit upon my throne; for he shall be king in my stead: and I have appointed him to be ruler over Israel and over Judah.

Verse 35 is found in chapter 1 of 1 Kings. David publicly reaffirms his oath that Solomon will be king after him and orders that he be anointed. The decision ends the uncertainty surrounding the succession. Solomon does not obtain the throne by leading a rebellion, but through David’s designation and priestly and prophetic anointing. The episode establishes from the beginning a distinction between power someone attempts to seize and legitimacy received within the established order.

Und ziehet mit ihm herauf, und er soll kommen und sitzen auf meinem Stuhl und König sein für mich; und ich will ihm gebieten, daß er Fürst sei über Israel und Juda.
Después iréis vosotros detrás de él, y vendrá y se sentará en mi trono, y él reinará por mí; porque a él he ordenado para que sea príncipe sobre Israel y sobre Judá.
Después suban tras él; él vendrá y se sentará en mi trono y reinará en mi lugar. Lo he designado para que sea gobernante de Israel y de Judá».
Vous monterez après lui; il viendra s'asseoir sur mon trône, et il régnera à ma place. C'est lui qui, par mon ordre, sera chef d'Israël et de Juda.
Poi ritornatevene dietro a lui, ed egli verrà, e sederà sopra il mio trono, e regnerà in luogo mio; perciocchè io l’ho ordinato per esser conduttore sopra Israele e sopra Giuda.
Então subireis após ele, e virá e se assentará no meu trono, e ele reinará em meu lugar; porque tenho ordenado que ele seja guia sobre Israel e sobre Judá.
你們要跟隨他上來,使他坐在我的王位上,他要接續我作王。我已立他作 以色列 和 猶大 的君王。」
