29 As for the rest of the acts of Solomon, from beginning to end, are they not written in the Records of Nathan the Prophet, in the Prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the Visions of Iddo the Seer concerning Jeroboam son of Nebat?

And Solomon rested with his fathers and was buried in the city of his father David. And his son Rehoboam reigned in his place.
