    How long was David King before he was ousted by his son?

    David want ousted by anyone. The Kingdom passed to Solomon before David's passing.

    Hello William. According to 1 Kings 2:11, King David reigned a total of forty years; seven years from Hebron & thirty-three years from Jerusalem. Before David died, he appointed Solomon his son (son from Bathsheba) to take his place as ruler ( 1 Kings 1:28-40). So Solomon was anointed ( 1 Kings 1:39) as King prior to David's death & wasn't ousted.
