1 Kings 2:10-12
10And David lay down with his fathers and was buried in the city of David. 11And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: in Hebron he reigned seven years, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years. 12And Solomon sat on the throne of David his father, and his kingdom was established firmly.
26Thus David son of Jesse reigned over all Israel. 27The days that he reigned over Israel were forty years: in Hebron he reigned seven years, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years. 28He died in a good old age, satisfied with days, riches, and glory; and Solomon his son reigned in his place. 29The acts of David the king, the first and the last, are written in the words of Samuel the seer, and in the words of Nathan the prophet, and in the words of Gad the seer, 30with all his reign and his might, and the times that passed over him and over Israel and over all the kingdoms of the lands.
The context
