David Thanks God

1 Chronicles 12:22

12:22 Each day men came to help David until his army became very large.

1 Chronicles 13:12

13:12 David was afraid of God that day and said, “How will I ever be able to bring the ark of God up here?”

1 Chronicles 29:22

29:22 They held a feast before the Lord that day and celebrated.

Then they designated Solomon, David’s son, as king a second time; before the Lord they anointed him as ruler and Zadok as priest.

1 Chronicles 11:22

11:22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was a brave warrior from Kabzeel who performed great exploits. He struck down the two sons of Ariel of Moab; he also went down and killed a lion inside a cistern on a snowy day.


tn Heb “for at the time of day in a day they were coming to David to help him until [there was] a great camp like the camp of God.” The term אֱלֹהִים (’elohim, “God”) is probably used idiomatically here to indicate the superlative.

tn Heb “they ate and drank.”

tn Heb “with great joy.”

sn See 1 Chr 23:1, where David had previously designated Solomon as king over Israel.

tc Heb “the two of Ariel, Moab.” The precise meaning of אֲרִיאֵל (’ariel) is uncertain; some read “warrior.” The present translation assumes that the word is a proper name and that בְּנֵי (bÿney, “sons of”) has accidentally dropped from the text by homoioarcton (note the preceding שְׁנֵי, shÿney).
