David Made King over All Israel

11Then all Israel gathered to David at Hebron and said, "Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.H3478H6908H1732H2275H559H6106H1320 2"In times past, even when Saul was king, you [were] the one who led out and brought in Israel; and the LORD your God said to you, 'You shall shepherd My people Israel, and you shall be prince over My people Israel.'"H8543H8032H7586H4428H3318H935H3478H3068H430H559H7462H5971H3478H5057H1571H3478 3So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD through Samuel.H935H2205H3478H4428H2275H1732H3772H1285H2275H6440H3068H4886H1732H4428H3478H1697H3068H3027H8050

Jerusalem, Capital City

4Then David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (that is, Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, [were] there.H1732H3478H3212H3389H2982H2983H3427H776 5And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, "You shall not enter here." Nevertheless David captured the stronghold of Zion (that is, the city of David).H3427H2982H559H1732H935H1732H3920H4686H6726H5892H1732 6Now David had said, "Whoever strikes down a Jebusite first shall be chief and commander." And Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, so he became chief.H1732H559H5221H2983H7223H7218H8269H3097H1121H6870H5927H7223H5927H7218 7Then David dwelt in the stronghold; therefore it was called the city of David.H1732H3427H4679H7121H5892H1732 8And he built the city all around, from the Millo even to the surrounding area; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.H1129H5892H5439H4407H5439H3097H2421H7605H5892 9And David became greater and greater, for the LORD of hosts [was] with him.H1732H3212H1980H1419H3068H6635

David’s Mighty Men

10Now these are the heads of the mighty men whom David had, who gave him strong support in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the LORD concerning Israel.H7218H1368H1732H2388H4438H3478H4427H1697H3068H3478 11And these [constitute] the list of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred whom he killed at one time.H4557H1368H1732H3434H2453H7218H7991H7970H5782H2595H7969H3967H2491H259H6471 12And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who [was] one of the three mighty men.H310H499H1121H1734H266H7969H1368 13He was with David at Pasdammim when the Philistines were gathered together there to battle, and there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled before the Philistines.H1732H6450H6430H622H4421H2513H7704H4392H8184H5971H5127H6440H6430 14And they took their stand in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and struck down the Philistines; and the LORD saved them by a great victory.H3320H8432H2513H5337H5221H6430H3068H3467H1419H8668 15Now three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam, while the army of the Philistines was camping in the valley of Rephaim.H7969H7970H7218H3381H6697H1732H4631H5725H4264H6430H2583H6010H7497 16And David was then in the stronghold, while the garrison of the Philistines [was] then in Bethlehem.H1732H4686H6430H5333H1035 17And David had a craving and said, "Oh that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!"H1732H183H559H8248H4325H953H1035H8179 18So the three broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water from the well of Bethlehem which [was] by the gate, and took [it] and brought [it] to David; nevertheless David would not drink it, but poured it out to the LORD;H7969H1234H4264H6430H7579H4325H953H1035H8179H5375H935H1732H1732H14H8354H5258H3068 19and he said, "Be it far from me before my God that I should do this. Shall I drink the blood of these men [who went] at the risk of their lives? For at the risk of their lives they brought it." Therefore he would not drink it. These things the three mighty men did.H559H430H2486H6213H2063H8354H1818H582H5315H5315H935H14H8354H6213H7969H1368 20As for Abshai the brother of Joab, he was chief of the thirty, and he swung his spear against three hundred and killed them; and he had a name as well as the thirty.H52H251H3097H7218H7969H5782H2595H7969H3967H2491H8034H7969 21Of the three in the second [rank] he was the most honored, and became their commander; however, he did not attain to the [first] three.H7969H3513H8147H8269H935H7969 22Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, mighty in deeds, struck down the two [sons of] Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion inside a pit on a snowy day.H1141H1121H3077H1121H2428H376H6909H7227H6467H5221H8147H739H4124H3381H5221H738H8432H953H7950H3117 23And he killed an Egyptian, a man of [great] stature five cubits tall. Now in the Egyptian's hand [was] a spear like a weaver's beam, but he went down to him with a club and snatched the spear from the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear.H5221H4713H376H4060H2568H520H4713H3027H2595H707H4500H3381H7626H1497H2595H4713H3027H2026H2595 24These [things] Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did, and had a name as well as the three mighty men.H6213H1141H1121H3077H8034H7969H1368 25Behold, he was honored among the thirty, but he did not attain to the three; and David appointed him over his guard.H2009H3513H7970H935H7969H1732H7760H4928 26Now the mighty men of the armies [were] Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,H1368H2428H6214H251H3097H445H1121H1734H1035 27Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,H8054H2033H2503H6397 28Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite, Abiezer the Anathothite,H5896H1121H6142H8621H44H6069 29Sibbecai the Hushathite, Ilai the Ahohite,H5444H2843H5866H266 30Maharai the Netophathite, Heled the son of Baanah the Netophathite,H4121H5200H2466H1121H1196H5200 31Ithai the son of Ribai of Gibeah of the sons of Benjamin, Benaiah the Pirathonite,H863H1121H7380H1390H1121H1144H1141H6553 32Hurai of the brooks of Gaash, Abiel the Arbathite,H2360H5158H1608H22H6164 33Azmaveth the Baharumite, Eliahba the Shaalbonite,H5820H978H455H8170 34the sons of Hashem the Gizonite, Jonathan the son of Shagee the Hararite,H1121H2044H1493H3129H1121H7681H2043 35Ahiam the son of Sacar the Hararite, Eliphal the son of Ur,H279H1121H7940H2043H465H1121H218 36Hepher the Mecherathite, Ahijah the Pelonite,H2660H4382H281H6397 37Hezro the Carmelite, Naarai the son of Ezbai,H2695H3761H5293H1121H229 38Joel the brother of Nathan, Mibhar the son of Hagri,H3100H251H5416H4006H1121H1905 39Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai the Berothite, the armor bearer of Joab the son of Zeruiah,H6768H5984H5171H1307H5375H3627H3097H1121H6870 40Ira the Ithrite, Gareb the Ithrite,H5896H3505H1619H3505 41Uriah the Hittite, Zabad the son of Ahlai,H223H2850H2066H1121H304 42Adina the son of Shiza the Reubenite, a chief of the Reubenites, and thirty with him,H5721H1121H7877H7206H7218H7206H7970 43Hanan the son of Maacah and Joshaphat the Mithnite,H2605H1121H4601H3146H4981 44Uzzia the Ashterathite, Shama and Jeiel the sons of Hotham the Aroerite,H5814H6254H8091H3273H1121H2369H6200 45Jediael the son of Shimri and Joha his brother, the Tizite,H3043H1121H8113H3109H251H8491 46Eliel the Mahavite and Jeribai and Joshaviah, the sons of Elnaam, and Ithmah the Moabite,H447H4233H3403H3145H1121H493H3495H4125 47Eliel and Obed and Jaasiel the Mezobaite.H447H5744H3300H4677
