So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon king David’s mule, and brought him to Gihon.

Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah, and some helpers took Solomon on a special animal called a mule. They rode with him to a place called Gihon. This was all to help Solomon become the new king after his father, David.
