2 Samuel

Chapter 5

1 THEN all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said to him, Behold, we are your flesh and your bone.

2 Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, it was you who led out and brought in Israel; and the LORD said to you, You shall feed my people Israel, and you shall be a ruler over my people Israel.

3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron; and King David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel.

4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

6 And King David and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke to David, saying, You shall not come in here, except you destroy both the blind and the lame; and they said, David cannot come in here.

7 Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

8 And David said on that day, Whosoever smites a Jebusite and whosoever strikes with a weapon the blind and the lame, he is a hater of David's soul. Therefore they say, The blind and the lame shall not come into the temple.

9 So David dwelt in the fort, that is, Zion; and he called it the city of David. And David built round about the fort from within.

10 And David continued to become greater, and the LORD God of hosts was with him.

11 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees and carpenters and masons; and they built David a house.

12 And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel.

13 And David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron; and there were more sons and daughters born to David.

14 And these are the names of the sons who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammuah, Shachab, Nathan, Solomon,

15 Jocabar, Elisha, Nepheg, Naphia,

16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphalet.

17 But when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the fort.

18 The Philistines also came and encamped in the Valley of Giants.

19 And David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? Wilt thou deliver them into my hands? And the LORD said to David, Go up; for I will deliver them into your hands.

20 And David came to Baal-perazim, and David defeated them there, and David said, The LORD has made a breach through my enemies before me, like the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

21 And they left their idols there, and David and his men carried them away.

22 And the Philistines came up yet again and encamped in the Valley of the Giants.

23 And when David inquired of the LORD, the LORD said to him, You shall not go up; but circle behind them, and come upon them opposite Bachim.

24 And when you hear the sound of marching on the top of the mountain of Bachim, then you shall become strong; for then shall the LORD go out before you to smite the army of the Philistines.

25 And David did as the LORD had commanded him; and he smote the Philistines from Geba to the entrance of Gadar.

Chapter 5

1 Then came935 all3605 the tribes7626 of Israel3478 to413 David1732 unto Hebron,2275 and spoke,559 saying,559 Behold,2009 we587 are thy bone6106 and thy flesh.1320

2 Also1571 in time past,865 8032 when Saul7586 was1961 king4428 over5921 us, thou859 wast1961 he that leddest out3318 and broughtest935 853 in Israel:3478 and the LORD3068 said559 to thee Thou859 shalt feed7462 853 my people5971 853 Israel,3478 and thou859 shalt be1961 a captain5057 over5921 Israel.3478

3 So all3605 the elders2205 of Israel3478 came935 to413 the king4428 to Hebron;2275 and king4428 David1732 made3772 a league1285 with them in Hebron2275 before6440 the LORD:3068 and they anointed4886 853 David1732 king4428 over5921 Israel.3478

4 David1732 was thirty7970 years8141 old1121 when he began to reign,4427 and he reigned4427 forty705 years.8141

5 In Hebron2275 he reigned4427 over5921 Judah3063 seven7651 years8141 and six8337 months:2320 and in Jerusalem3389 he reigned4427 thirty7970 and three7969 years8141 over5921 all3605 Israel3478 and Judah.3063

6 And the king4428 and his men376 went1980 to Jerusalem3389 unto413 the Jebusites,2983 the inhabitants3427 of the land:776 which spoke559 unto David,1732 saying,559 Except3588 518 thou take away5493 the blind5787 and the lame,6455 thou shalt not3808 come in935 hither:2008 thinking,559 David1732 cannot3808 come in935 hither.2008

7 Nevertheless David1732 took3920 853 the stronghold4686 of Zion:6726 the same1931 is the city5892 of David.1732

8 And David1732 said559 on that1931 day,3117 Whosoever3605 getteth up5060 to the gutter,6794 and smiteth5221 the Jebusites,2983 and the lame6455 and the blind,5787 that are hated8130 of David's1732 soul,5315 he shall be chief and captain. Wherefore5921 3651 they said,559 The blind5787 and the lame6455 shall not3808 come935 into413 the house.1004

9 So David1732 dwelt3427 in the fort,4686 and called7121 it the city5892 of David.1732 And David1732 built1129 round about5439 from4480 Millo4407 and inward.1004

10 And David1732 went on,1980 1980 and grew great,1419 and the LORD3068 God430 of hosts6635 was with5973 him.

11 And Hiram2438 king4428 of Tyre6865 sent7971 messengers4397 to413 David,1732 and cedar730 trees,6086 and carpenters,2796 6086 and masons:2796 18 7023 and they built1129 David1732 a house.1004

12 And David1732 perceived3045 that3588 the LORD3068 had established3559 him king4428 over5921 Israel,3478 and that3588 he had exalted5375 his kingdom4467 for his people5971 Israel's3478 sake.5668

13 And David1732 took3947 him more5750 concubines6370 and wives802 out of Jerusalem,4480 3389 after310 he was come935 from Hebron:4480 2275 and there were yet5750 sons1121 and daughters1323 born3205 to David.1732

14 And these428 be the names8034 of those that were born3209 unto him in Jerusalem;3389 Shammua,8051 and Shobab,7727 and Nathan,5416 and Solomon,8010

15 Ibhar2984 also, and Elishua,474 and Nepheg,5298 and Japhia,3309

16 And Elishama,476 and Eliada,450 and Eliphalet.467

17 But when the Philistines6430 heard8085 that3588 they had anointed4886 853 David1732 king4428 over5921 Israel,3478 all3605 the Philistines6430 came up5927 to seek1245 853 David;1732 and David1732 heard8085 of it, and went down3381 to413 the hold.4686

18 The Philistines6430 also came935 and spread themselves5203 in the valley6010 of Rephaim.7497

19 And David1732 inquired7592 of the LORD,3068 saying,559 Shall I go up5927 to413 the Philistines?6430 wilt thou deliver5414 them into mine hand?3027 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 David,1732 Go up:5927 for3588 I will doubtless deliver5414 5414 853 the Philistines6430 into thine hand.3027

20 And David1732 came935 to Baal-perazim,1188 and David1732 smote5221 them there,8033 and said,559 The LORD3068 hath broken forth upon6555 853 mine enemies341 before6440 me, as the breach6556 of waters.4325 Therefore5921 3651 he called7121 the name8034 of that1931 place4725 Baal-perazim.1188

21 And there8033 they left5800 853 their images,6091 and David1732 and his men376 burned5375 them.

22 And the Philistines6430 came up5927 yet5750 again,3254 and spread themselves5203 in the valley6010 of Rephaim.7497

23 And when David1732 inquired7592 of the LORD,3068 he said,559 Thou shalt not3808 go up;5927 but fetch a compass5437 413 behind310 them, and come935 upon them over against4480 4136 the mulberry trees.1057

24 And let it be,1961 when thou hearest8085 853 the sound6963 of a going6807 in the tops7218 of the mulberry trees,1057 that then227 thou shalt bestir2782 thyself: for3588 then227 shall the LORD3068 go out3318 before6440 thee, to smite5221 the host4264 of the Philistines.6430

25 And David1732 did6213 so,3651 as834 the LORD3068 had commanded6680 him; and smote5221 853 the Philistines6430 from Geba4480 1387 until thou come935 to Gazer.1507

Chapter 5

1 THEN all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said to him, Behold, we are your flesh and your bone.

1 Then came935 all3605 the tribes7626 of Israel3478 to413 David1732 unto Hebron,2275 and spoke,559 saying,559 Behold,2009 we587 are thy bone6106 and thy flesh.1320

2 Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, it was you who led out and brought in Israel; and the LORD said to you, You shall feed my people Israel, and you shall be a ruler over my people Israel.

2 Also1571 in time past,865 8032 when Saul7586 was1961 king4428 over5921 us, thou859 wast1961 he that leddest out3318 and broughtest935 853 in Israel:3478 and the LORD3068 said559 to thee Thou859 shalt feed7462 853 my people5971 853 Israel,3478 and thou859 shalt be1961 a captain5057 over5921 Israel.3478

3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron; and King David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel.

3 So all3605 the elders2205 of Israel3478 came935 to413 the king4428 to Hebron;2275 and king4428 David1732 made3772 a league1285 with them in Hebron2275 before6440 the LORD:3068 and they anointed4886 853 David1732 king4428 over5921 Israel.3478

4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

4 David1732 was thirty7970 years8141 old1121 when he began to reign,4427 and he reigned4427 forty705 years.8141

5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

5 In Hebron2275 he reigned4427 over5921 Judah3063 seven7651 years8141 and six8337 months:2320 and in Jerusalem3389 he reigned4427 thirty7970 and three7969 years8141 over5921 all3605 Israel3478 and Judah.3063

6 And King David and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke to David, saying, You shall not come in here, except you destroy both the blind and the lame; and they said, David cannot come in here.

6 And the king4428 and his men376 went1980 to Jerusalem3389 unto413 the Jebusites,2983 the inhabitants3427 of the land:776 which spoke559 unto David,1732 saying,559 Except3588 518 thou take away5493 the blind5787 and the lame,6455 thou shalt not3808 come in935 hither:2008 thinking,559 David1732 cannot3808 come in935 hither.2008

7 Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

7 Nevertheless David1732 took3920 853 the stronghold4686 of Zion:6726 the same1931 is the city5892 of David.1732

8 And David said on that day, Whosoever smites a Jebusite and whosoever strikes with a weapon the blind and the lame, he is a hater of David's soul. Therefore they say, The blind and the lame shall not come into the temple.

8 And David1732 said559 on that1931 day,3117 Whosoever3605 getteth up5060 to the gutter,6794 and smiteth5221 the Jebusites,2983 and the lame6455 and the blind,5787 that are hated8130 of David's1732 soul,5315 he shall be chief and captain. Wherefore5921 3651 they said,559 The blind5787 and the lame6455 shall not3808 come935 into413 the house.1004

9 So David dwelt in the fort, that is, Zion; and he called it the city of David. And David built round about the fort from within.

9 So David1732 dwelt3427 in the fort,4686 and called7121 it the city5892 of David.1732 And David1732 built1129 round about5439 from4480 Millo4407 and inward.1004

10 And David continued to become greater, and the LORD God of hosts was with him.

10 And David1732 went on,1980 1980 and grew great,1419 and the LORD3068 God430 of hosts6635 was with5973 him.

11 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees and carpenters and masons; and they built David a house.

11 And Hiram2438 king4428 of Tyre6865 sent7971 messengers4397 to413 David,1732 and cedar730 trees,6086 and carpenters,2796 6086 and masons:2796 18 7023 and they built1129 David1732 a house.1004

12 And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel.

12 And David1732 perceived3045 that3588 the LORD3068 had established3559 him king4428 over5921 Israel,3478 and that3588 he had exalted5375 his kingdom4467 for his people5971 Israel's3478 sake.5668

13 And David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron; and there were more sons and daughters born to David.

13 And David1732 took3947 him more5750 concubines6370 and wives802 out of Jerusalem,4480 3389 after310 he was come935 from Hebron:4480 2275 and there were yet5750 sons1121 and daughters1323 born3205 to David.1732

14 And these are the names of the sons who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammuah, Shachab, Nathan, Solomon,

14 And these428 be the names8034 of those that were born3209 unto him in Jerusalem;3389 Shammua,8051 and Shobab,7727 and Nathan,5416 and Solomon,8010

15 Jocabar, Elisha, Nepheg, Naphia,

15 Ibhar2984 also, and Elishua,474 and Nepheg,5298 and Japhia,3309

16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphalet.

16 And Elishama,476 and Eliada,450 and Eliphalet.467

17 But when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the fort.

17 But when the Philistines6430 heard8085 that3588 they had anointed4886 853 David1732 king4428 over5921 Israel,3478 all3605 the Philistines6430 came up5927 to seek1245 853 David;1732 and David1732 heard8085 of it, and went down3381 to413 the hold.4686

18 The Philistines also came and encamped in the Valley of Giants.

18 The Philistines6430 also came935 and spread themselves5203 in the valley6010 of Rephaim.7497

19 And David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? Wilt thou deliver them into my hands? And the LORD said to David, Go up; for I will deliver them into your hands.

19 And David1732 inquired7592 of the LORD,3068 saying,559 Shall I go up5927 to413 the Philistines?6430 wilt thou deliver5414 them into mine hand?3027 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 David,1732 Go up:5927 for3588 I will doubtless deliver5414 5414 853 the Philistines6430 into thine hand.3027

20 And David came to Baal-perazim, and David defeated them there, and David said, The LORD has made a breach through my enemies before me, like the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

20 And David1732 came935 to Baal-perazim,1188 and David1732 smote5221 them there,8033 and said,559 The LORD3068 hath broken forth upon6555 853 mine enemies341 before6440 me, as the breach6556 of waters.4325 Therefore5921 3651 he called7121 the name8034 of that1931 place4725 Baal-perazim.1188

21 And they left their idols there, and David and his men carried them away.

21 And there8033 they left5800 853 their images,6091 and David1732 and his men376 burned5375 them.

22 And the Philistines came up yet again and encamped in the Valley of the Giants.

22 And the Philistines6430 came up5927 yet5750 again,3254 and spread themselves5203 in the valley6010 of Rephaim.7497

23 And when David inquired of the LORD, the LORD said to him, You shall not go up; but circle behind them, and come upon them opposite Bachim.

23 And when David1732 inquired7592 of the LORD,3068 he said,559 Thou shalt not3808 go up;5927 but fetch a compass5437 413 behind310 them, and come935 upon them over against4480 4136 the mulberry trees.1057

24 And when you hear the sound of marching on the top of the mountain of Bachim, then you shall become strong; for then shall the LORD go out before you to smite the army of the Philistines.

24 And let it be,1961 when thou hearest8085 853 the sound6963 of a going6807 in the tops7218 of the mulberry trees,1057 that then227 thou shalt bestir2782 thyself: for3588 then227 shall the LORD3068 go out3318 before6440 thee, to smite5221 the host4264 of the Philistines.6430

25 And David did as the LORD had commanded him; and he smote the Philistines from Geba to the entrance of Gadar.

25 And David1732 did6213 so,3651 as834 the LORD3068 had commanded6680 him; and smote5221 853 the Philistines6430 from Geba4480 1387 until thou come935 to Gazer.1507
