5THEN ALL the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.H935H7626H3478H1732H2275H559H559H6106H1320 2In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. And the Lord told you, You shall feed My people Israel and be prince over [them].H865H8032H7586H4428H3318H935H3478H3068H559H7462H5971H3478H5057H3478 3So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and King David made a covenant with them [there] before the Lord, and they anointed [him] king over Israel.H2205H3478H935H4428H2275H4428H1732H3772H1285H2275H6440H3068H4886H1732H4428H3478 4David was thirty years old when he began his forty-year reign.H1732H7970H8141H1121H4427H4427H705H8141 5In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.H2275H4427H3063H7651H8141H8337H2320H3389H4427H7970H7969H8141H3478H3063 6And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who said to David, You shall not enter here, for the blind and the lame will prevent you; they thought, David cannot come in here.H4428H582H3212H3389H2983H3427H776H559H1732H559H5493H5787H6455H935H559H1732H935 7Nevertheless, David took the stronghold of Zion, that is, the City of David.H1732H3920H4686H6726H5892H1732 8David said on that day, Whoever smites the Jebusites, let him get up through the water shaft and smite the lame and the blind who are detested by David's soul. So they say, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.H1732H559H3117H5060H6794H5221H2983H6455H5787H8130H1732H5315H559H5787H6455H935H1004 9So David dwelt in the stronghold and called it the City of David. And he built round about from the Millo and inward.H1732H3427H4686H7121H5892H1732H1732H1129H5439H4407H1004 10David became greater and greater, for the Lord God of hosts was with him.H1732H3212H1980H1419H3068H430H6635 11Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.H2438H4428H6865H7971H4397H1732H730H6086H2796H7023H68H1129H1732H1004 12And David perceived that the Lord had established him king over Israel and that He had exalted his kingdom for His people Israel's sake.H1732H3045H3068H3559H4428H3478H5375H4467H5971H3478 13And David took more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he came from Hebron, and other sons and daughters were born to [him].H1732H3947H6370H802H3389H310H935H2275H1121H1323H3205H1732 14And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,H8034H3209H3389H8051H7727H5416H8010 15Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,H2984H474H5298H3309 16Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.H476H450H467 17When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they all went up to find [him], but [he] heard of it and went down to the stronghold.H6430H8085H4886H1732H4428H3478H6430H5927H1245H1732H1732H8085H3381H4686 18The Philistines also came and spread themselves in the Valley of Rephaim.H6430H935H5203H6010H7497 19David inquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said to David, Go up, for I will surely deliver [them] into your hand.H1732H7592H3068H559H5927H6430H5414H3027H3068H559H1732H5927H5414H5414H6430H3027 20And David came to Baal-perazim, and he smote them there, and said, The Lord has broken through my enemies before me, like the bursting out of great waters. So he called the name of that place Baal-perazim [Lord of breaking through].H1732H935H1188H1732H5221H559H3068H6555H341H6440H6556H4325H7121H8034H4725H1188 21There the Philistines left their images, and David and his men took them away.H5800H6091H1732H582H5375 22The Philistines came up again and spread themselves out in the Valley of Rephaim.H6430H5927H3254H5203H6010H7497 23When David inquired of the Lord, He said, You shall not go up, but go around behind them and come upon them over opposite the mulberry (or balsam) trees.H1732H7592H3068H559H5927H5437H310H935H4136H1057 24And when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, then bestir yourselves, for then has the Lord gone out before you to smite the army of the Philistines.H8085H6963H6807H7218H1057H2782H3068H3318H6440H5221H4264H6430 25And David did as the Lord had commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Geba to Gezer.H1732H6213H3068H6680H5221H6430H1387H935H1507
