28 and he dieth in a good old age, satisfied with days, riches, and honour, and reign doth Solomon his son in his stead.
and thou -- thou comest in unto thy fathers in peace; thou art buried in a good old age;
And David is old, and satisfied with days, and causeth his son Solomon to reign over Israel,
for David, indeed, his own generation having served by the will of God, did fall asleep, and was added unto his fathers, and saw corruption,
and Abraham expireth, and dieth in a good old age, aged and satisfied, and is gathered unto his people.

David has said what he had to say to Solomon. But he had something more to say to the congregation before he parted with them.
1Ch 29:1-9
We may here observe,
1Ch 29:10-22
We have here,
1Ch 29:23-30
These verses bring king Solomon to his throne and king David to his grave. Thus the rising generation thrusts out that which went before, and says, "Make room for us.' Every one has his day.
