1 Chronicles 10:1--29:30

Now the Philistines
<06430>
fought
<03898> (8738)
against Israel
<03478>_;
and the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
fled
<05127> (8799)
from before
<06440>
the Philistines
<06430>_,
and fell down
<05307> (8799)
slain
<02491>
in mount
<02022>
Gilboa
<01533>_.
{slain: or, wounded}
And the Philistines
<06430>
followed hard
<01692> (8686)
after
<0310>
Saul
<07586>_,
and after
<0310>
his sons
<01121>_;
and the Philistines
<06430>
slew
<05221> (8686)
Jonathan
<03129>_,
and Abinadab
<041>_,
and Malchishua
<04444>_,
the sons
<01121>
of Saul
<07586>_.
{Abinadab: also called, Ishui}
And the battle
<04421>
went sore
<03513> (8799)
against Saul
<07586>_,
and the archers
<03384> (8688) <07198>
hit
<04672> (8799)
him, and he was wounded
<02342> (8799)
of the archers
<03384> (8802)_.
{and the archers: Heb. and the shooters with bows} {hit: Heb. found}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Saul
<07586>
to his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>_,
Draw
<08025> (8798)
thy sword
<02719>_,
and thrust
<01856> (8798)
me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised
<06189>
come
<0935> (8799)
and abuse
<05953> (8694)
me. But his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>
would
<014> (8804)
not; for he was sore
<03966>
afraid
<03372> (8804)_.
So Saul
<07586>
took
<03947> (8799)
a sword
<02719>_,
and fell
<05307> (8799)
upon it. {abuse me: or, mock me}
And when his armourbearer
<05375> (8802) <03627>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that Saul
<07586>
was dead
<04191> (8804)_,
he fell
<05307> (8799)
likewise on the sword
<02719>_,
and died
<04191> (8799)_.
So Saul
<07586>
died
<04191> (8799)_,
and his three
<07969>
sons
<01121>_,
and all his house
<01004>
died
<04191> (8804)
together
<03162>_.
And when all the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
that [were] in the valley
<06010>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that they fled
<05127> (8804)_,
and that Saul
<07586>
and his sons
<01121>
were dead
<04191> (8804)_,
then they forsook
<05800> (8799)
their cities
<05892>_,
and fled
<05127> (8799)_:
and the Philistines
<06430>
came
<0935> (8799)
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
in them.
And it came to pass on the morrow
<04283>_,
when the Philistines
<06430>
came
<0935> (8799)
to strip
<06584> (8763)
the slain
<02491>_,
that they found
<04672> (8799)
Saul
<07586>
and his sons
<01121>
fallen
<05307> (8802)
in mount
<02022>
Gilboa
<01533>_.
And when they had stripped
<06584> (8686)
him, they took
<05375> (8799)
his head
<07218>_,
and his armour
<03627>_,
and sent
<07971> (8762)
into the land
<0776>
of the Philistines
<06430>
round about
<05439>_,
to carry tidings
<01319> (8763)
unto their idols
<06091>_,
and to the people
<05971>_.
And they put
<07760> (8799)
his armour
<03627>
in the house
<01004>
of their gods
<0430>_,
and fastened
<08628> (8804)
his head
<01538>
in the temple
<01004>
of Dagon
<01712>_.
And when all Jabeshgilead
<03003> <01568>
heard
<08085> (8799)
all that the Philistines
<06430>
had done
<06213> (8804)
to Saul
<07586>_,
They arose
<06965> (8799)_,
all the valiant
<02428>
men
<0376>_,
and took away
<05375> (8799)
the body
<01480>
of Saul
<07586>_,
and the bodies
<01480>
of his sons
<01121>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
them to Jabesh
<03003>_,
and buried
<06912> (8799)
their bones
<06106>
under the oak
<0424>
in Jabesh
<03003>_,
and fasted
<06684> (8799)
seven
<07651>
days
<03117>_.
So Saul
<07586>
died
<04191> (8799)
for his transgression
<04604>
which he committed
<04603> (8804)
against the LORD
<03068>_,
[even] against the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which he kept
<08104> (8804)
not, and also for asking
<07592> (8800)
[counsel] of [one that had] a familiar spirit
<0178>_,
to enquire
<01875> (8800)
[of it]; {committed: Heb. transgressed}
And enquired
<01875> (8804)
not of the LORD
<03068>_:
therefore he slew
<04191> (8686)
him, and turned
<05437> (8686)
the kingdom
<04410>
unto David
<01732>
the son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>_.
{Jesse: Heb. Isai}
Then all Israel
<03478>
gathered
<06908> (8735)
themselves to David
<01732>
unto Hebron
<02275>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, we [are] thy bone
<06106>
and thy flesh
<01320>_.
And moreover in time
<08543>
past
<08032>_,
even when Saul
<07586>
was king
<04428>_,
thou [wast] he that leddest out
<03318> (8688)
and broughtest in
<0935> (8688)
Israel
<03478>_:
and the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto thee, Thou shalt feed
<07462> (8799)
my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
and thou shalt be ruler
<05057>
over my people
<01571>
Israel
<03478>_.
{in time...: Heb. both yesterday and the third day} {feed: or, rule}
Therefore came
<0935> (8799)
all the elders
<02205>
of Israel
<03478>
to the king
<04428>
to Hebron
<02275>_;
and David
<01732>
made
<03772> (8799)
a covenant
<01285>
with them in Hebron
<02275>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_;
and they anointed
<04886> (8799)
David
<01732>
king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_,
according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
by
<03027>
Samuel
<08050>_.
{by: Heb. by the hand of}
And David
<01732>
and all Israel
<03478>
went
<03212> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
which [is] Jebus
<02982>_;
where the Jebusites
<02983>
[were], the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the land
<0776>_.
And the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jebus
<02982>
said
<0559> (8799)
to David
<01732>_,
Thou shalt not come
<0935> (8799)
hither. Nevertheless David
<01732>
took
<03920> (8799)
the castle
<04686>
of Zion
<06726>_,
which [is] the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Whosoever smiteth
<05221> (8688)
the Jebusites
<02983>
first
<07223>
shall be chief
<07218>
and captain
<08269>_.
So Joab
<03097>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>
went
<05927> (0)
first
<07223>
up
<05927> (8799)_,
and was chief
<07218>_.
{chief: Heb. head}
And David
<01732>
dwelt
<03427> (8799)
in the castle
<04679>_;
therefore they called
<07121> (8804)
it the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_.
{it: that is, Zion}
And he built
<01129> (8799)
the city
<05892>
round about
<05439>_,
even from Millo
<04407>
round about
<05439>_:
and Joab
<03097>
repaired
<02421> (8762)
the rest
<07605>
of the city
<05892>_.
{repaired: Heb. revived}
So David
<01732>
waxed
<03212> (8799)
greater
<01980> (8800)
and greater
<01419>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
[was] with him. {waxed...: Heb. went in going and increasing}
These also [are] the chief
<07218>
of the mighty men
<01368>
whom David
<01732>
had, who strengthened
<02388> (8693)
themselves with him in his kingdom
<04438>_,
[and] with all Israel
<03478>_,
to make him king
<04427> (8687)_,
according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
concerning Israel
<03478>_.
{strengthened...: or, held strongly with him}
And this [is] the number
<04557>
of the mighty men
<01368>
whom David
<01732>
had; Jashobeam
<03434>_,
an Hachmonite
<02453>_,
the chief
<07218>
of the captains
<07991> (8675) <07970>_:
he lifted up
<05782> (8790)
his spear
<02595>
against three
<07969>
hundred
<03967>
slain
<02491>
[by him] at one
<0259>
time
<06471>_.
{an Hachmonite: or, son of Hachmoni}
And after
<0310>
him [was] Eleazar
<0499>
the son
<01121>
of Dodo
<01734>_,
the Ahohite
<0266>_,
who [was one] of the three
<07969>
mighties
<01368>_.
He was with David
<01732>
at Pasdammim
<06450>_,
and there the Philistines
<06430>
were gathered together
<0622> (8738)
to battle
<04421>_,
where was a parcel
<02513>
of ground
<07704>
full
<04392>
of barley
<08184>_;
and the people
<05971>
fled
<05127> (8804)
from before
<06440>
the Philistines
<06430>_.
{Pasdammim: also called, Ephesdammim}
And they set
<03320> (8691)
themselves in the midst
<08432>
of [that] parcel
<02513>_,
and delivered
<05337> (8686)
it, and slew
<05221> (8686)
the Philistines
<06430>_;
and the LORD
<03068>
saved
<03467> (8686)
[them] by a great
<01419>
deliverance
<08668>_.
{set...: or, stood} {deliverance: or, salvation}
Now three
<07969>
of the thirty
<07970>
captains
<07218>
went down
<03381> (8799)
to the rock
<06697>
to David
<01732>_,
into the cave
<04631>
of Adullam
<05725>_;
and the host
<04264>
of the Philistines
<06430>
encamped
<02583> (8802)
in the valley
<06010>
of Rephaim
<07497>_.
{three...: or, three captains over the thirty}
And David
<01732>
[was] then in the hold
<04686>_,
and the Philistines
<06430>_'
garrison
<05333>
[was] then at Bethlehem
<01035>_.
And David
<01732>
longed
<0183> (8691)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Oh that one would give me drink
<08248> (8686)
of the water
<04325>
of the well
<0953>
of Bethlehem
<01035>_,
that [is] at the gate
<08179>_!
And the three
<07969>
brake through
<01234> (8799)
the host
<04264>
of the Philistines
<06430>_,
and drew
<07579> (8799)
water
<04325>
out of the well
<0953>
of Bethlehem
<01035>_,
that [was] by the gate
<08179>_,
and took
<05375> (8799)
[it], and brought
<0935> (8686)
[it] to David
<01732>_:
but David
<01732>
would
<014> (8804)
not drink
<08354> (8800)
[of] it, but poured it out
<05258> (8762)
to the LORD
<03068>_,
And said
<0559> (8799)_,
My God
<0430>
forbid
<02486>
it me, that I should do
<06213> (8800)
this thing
<02063>_:
shall I drink
<08354> (8799)
the blood
<01818>
of these men
<0582>
that have put their lives in jeopardy
<05315>_?
for with [the jeopardy of] their lives
<05315>
they brought
<0935> (8689)
it. Therefore he would
<014> (8804)
not drink
<08354> (8800)
it. These things did
<06213> (8804)
these three
<07969>
mightiest
<01368>_.
{that have...: Heb. with their lives?}
And Abishai
<052>
the brother
<0251>
of Joab
<03097>_,
he was chief
<07218>
of the three
<07969>_:
for lifting up
<05782> (8790)
his spear
<02595>
against three
<07969>
hundred
<03967>_,
he slew
<02491>
[them], and had a name
<08034>
among the three
<07969>_.
Of the three
<07969>_,
he was more honourable
<03513> (8737)
than the two
<08147>_;
for he was their captain
<08269>_:
howbeit he attained
<0935> (8804)
not to the [first] three
<07969>_.
Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
the son
<01121>
of a valiant
<02428>
man
<0376>
of Kabzeel
<06909>_,
who had done many
<07227>
acts
<06467>_;
he slew
<05221> (8689)
two
<08147>
lionlike men
<0739>
of Moab
<04124>_:
also he went down
<03381> (8804)
and slew
<05221> (8689)
a lion
<0738>
in
<08432>
a pit
<0953>
in a snowy
<07950>
day
<03117>_.
{who had...: Heb. great of deeds}
And he slew
<05221> (8689)
an Egyptian
<04713>_,
a man
<0376>
of [great] stature
<04060>_,
five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>
high; and in the Egyptian's
<04713>
hand
<03027>
[was] a spear
<02595>
like a weaver's
<0707> (8802)
beam
<04500>_;
and he went down
<03381> (8799)
to him with a staff
<07626>_,
and plucked
<01497> (8799)
the spear
<02595>
out of the Egyptian's
<04713>
hand
<03027>_,
and slew
<02026> (8799)
him with his own spear
<02595>_.
{great...: Heb. measure}
These [things] did
<06213> (8804)
Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
and had the name
<08034>
among the three
<07969>
mighties
<01368>_.
Behold
<02009>_,
he was honourable
<03513> (8737)
among the thirty
<07970>_,
but attained
<0935> (8804)
not to the [first] three
<07969>_:
and David
<01732>
set
<07760> (8799)
him over his guard
<04928>_.
Also the valiant men
<01368>

These [are] they that went over
<05674> (8804)
Jordan
<03383>
in the first
<07223>
month
<02320>_,
when it had overflown
<04390> (8764)
all his banks
<01415> (8675) <01428>_;
and they put to flight
<01272> (8686)
all [them] of the valleys
<06010>_,
[both] toward the east

<01121>
of Benjamin
<01144>
and Judah
<03063>
to the hold
<04679>
unto David
<01732>_.
And David
<01732>
went out
<03318> (8799)
to meet
<06440>
them, and answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, If ye be come
<0935> (8804)
peaceably
<07965>
unto me to help
<05826> (8800)
me, mine heart
<03824>
shall be knit
<03162>
unto you: but if [ye be come] to betray
<07411> (8763)
me to mine enemies
<06862>_,
seeing [there is] no
<03808>
wrong
<02555>
in mine hands
<03709>_,
the God
<0430>
of our fathers
<01>
look
<07200> (8799)
[thereon], and rebuke
<03198> (8686)
[it]. {to meet...: Heb. before them} {be knit: Heb. be one} {wrong: or, violence}
Then the spirit
<07307>
came
<03847> (8804)
upon Amasai
<06022>_,
[who was] chief
<07218>
of the captains
<07970> (8677) <07991>_,
[and he said], Thine [are we], David
<01732>_,
and on thy side, thou son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>_:
peace
<07965>_,
peace
<07965>
[be] unto thee, and peace
<07965>
[be] to thine helpers
<05826> (8802)_;
for thy God
<0430>
helpeth
<05826> (8804)
thee. Then David
<01732>
received
<06901> (8762)
them, and made
<05414> (8799)
them captains
<07218>
of the band
<01416>_.
{came...: Heb. clothed}
And there fell
<05307> (8804)
[some] of Manasseh
<04519>
to David
<01732>_,
when he came
<0935> (8800)
with the Philistines
<06430>
against Saul
<07586>
to battle
<04421>_:
but they helped
<05826> (8804)
them not: for the lords
<05633>
of the Philistines
<06430>
upon advisement
<06098>
sent
<07971> (8765)
him away, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
He will fall
<05307> (8799)
to his master
<0113>
Saul
<07586>
to [the jeopardy of] our heads
<07218>_.
{to the...: Heb. on our heads}
As he went
<03212> (8800)
to Ziklag
<06860>_,
there fell

and Zilthai
<06769>_,
captains
<07218>

<0505>
that [were] of Manasseh
<04519>_.
And they helped
<05826> (8804)
David
<01732>
against the band
<01416>
[of the rovers]: for they [were] all mighty men
<01368>
of valour
<02428>_,
and were captains
<08269>
in the host
<06635>_.
{against...: or, with a band}
For at [that] time

there came

and drinking
<08354> (8802)_:
for their brethren
<0251>
had prepared
<03559> (8689)

Moreover they that were nigh
<07138>

and Zebulun

for [there was] joy

in Israel
<03478>_.
{meat...: or, victual of meal}
And David
<01732>
consulted
<03289> (8735)
with the captains
<08269>
of thousands
<0505>
and hundreds
<03967>_,
[and] with every leader
<05057>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto all the congregation
<06951>
of Israel
<03478>_,
If [it seem] good
<02895> (8804)
unto you, and [that it be] of the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_,
let us send
<07971> (8799)
abroad
<06555> (8799)
unto our brethren
<0251>
every where, [that are] left
<07604> (8737)
in all the land
<0776>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and with them [also] to the priests
<03548>
and Levites
<03881>
[which are] in their cities
<05892>
[and] suburbs
<04054>_,
that they may gather
<06908> (8735)
themselves unto us: {send...: Heb. break forth and send} {in their...: Heb. in the cities of their suburbs}
And let us bring again
<05437> (8686)
the ark
<0727>
of our God
<0430>
to us: for we enquired
<01875> (8804)
not at it in the days
<03117>
of Saul
<07586>_.
{bring...: Heb. bring about}
And all the congregation
<06951>
said
<0559> (8799)
that they would do so
<06213> (8800)_:
for the thing
<01697>
was right
<03474> (8804)
in the eyes
<05869>
of all the people
<05971>_.
So David
<01732>
gathered
<06950> (0)
all Israel
<03478>
together
<06950> (8686)_,
from Shihor
<07883>

<04714>
even unto the entering
<0935> (8800)
of Hemath
<02574>_,
to bring
<0935> (8687)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
from Kirjathjearim
<07157>_.
And David
<01732>
went up
<05927> (8799)_,
and all Israel
<03478>_,
to Baalah
<01173>_,
[that is], to Kirjathjearim
<07157>_,
which [belonged] to Judah
<03063>_,
to bring up
<05927> (8687)
thence the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
the LORD
<03068>_,
that dwelleth
<03427> (8802)
[between] the cherubims
<03742>_,
whose name
<08034>
is called
<07121> (8738)
[on it].
And they carried
<07392> (8686)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
in a new
<02319>
cart
<05699>
out of the house
<01004>
of Abinadab
<041>_:
and Uzza
<05798>
and Ahio
<0283>
drave
<05090> (8802)
the cart
<05699>_.
{carried...: Heb. made the ark to ride}
And David
<01732>
and all Israel
<03478>
played
<07832> (8764)
before
<06440>
God
<0430>
with all [their] might
<05797>_,
and with singing
<07892>_,
and with harps
<03658>_,
and with psalteries
<05035>_,
and with timbrels
<08596>_,
and with cymbals
<04700>_,
and with trumpets
<02689>_.
{singing: Heb. songs}
And when they came
<0935> (8799)
unto the threshingfloor
<01637>
of Chidon
<03592>_,
Uzza
<05798>
put forth
<07971> (8799)
his hand
<03027>
to hold
<0270> (8800)
the ark
<0727>_;
for the oxen
<01241>
stumbled
<08058> (8804)_.
{Chidon: also called Nachon} {stumbled: or, shook it}
And the anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)
against Uzza
<05798>_,
and he smote
<05221> (8686)
him, because he put
<07971> (8804)
his hand
<03027>
to the ark
<0727>_:
and there he died
<04191> (8799)
before
<06440>
God
<0430>_.
And David
<01732>
was displeased
<02734> (8799)_,
because the LORD
<03068>
had made
<06555> (8804)
a breach
<06556>
upon Uzza
<05798>_:
wherefore that place
<04725>
is called
<07121> (8799)
Perezuzza
<06560>
to this day
<03117>_.
{Perezuzza: that is, The breach of Uzza}
And David
<01732>
was afraid
<03372> (8799)
of God
<0430>
that day
<03117>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
How
<01963>
shall I bring
<0935> (8686)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
[home] to me?
So David
<01732>
brought
<05493> (8689)
not the ark
<0727>
[home] to himself to the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_,
but carried it aside
<05186> (8686)
into the house
<01004>
of Obededom
<05654>
the Gittite
<01663>_.
{brought: Heb. removed}
And the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
remained
<03427> (8799)
with the family
<01004>
of Obededom
<05654>
in his house
<01004>
three
<07969>
months
<02320>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
blessed
<01288> (8762)
the house
<01004>
of Obededom
<05654>_,
and all that he had.
Now Hiram
<02438> (8676) <02361>
king
<04428>
of Tyre
<06865>
sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>
to David
<01732>_,
and timber
<06086>
of cedars
<0730>_,
with masons
<07023>
and carpenters
<02796>_,
to build
<01129> (8800)
him an house
<01004>_.
And David
<01732>
perceived
<03045> (8799)
that the LORD
<03068>
had confirmed
<03559> (8689)
him king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_,
for his kingdom
<04438>
was lifted up
<05375> (8738)
on high
<04605>_,
because of his people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_.
And David
<01732>
took
<03947> (8799)
more wives
<0802>
at Jerusalem
<03389>_:
and David
<01732>
begat
<03205> (8686)
more sons
<01121>
and daughters
<01323>_.
{more: Heb. yet}
Now these [are] the names
<08034>
of [his] children
<03205> (8803)
which he had in Jerusalem
<03389>_;
Shammua
<08051>_,
and Shobab
<07727>_,
Nathan
<05416>_,
and Solomon
<08010>_,
And Ibhar
<02984>_,
and Elishua
<0474>_,
and Elpalet
<0467>_,
And Nogah
<05052>_,
and Nepheg
<05298>_,
and Japhia
<03309>_,
And Elishama
<0476>_,
and Beeliada
<01182>_,
and Eliphalet
<0467>_.
{Beeliada: also called, Eliada}
And when the Philistines
<06430>
heard
<08085> (8799)
that David
<01732>
was anointed
<04886> (8738)
king
<04428>
over all Israel
<03478>_,
all the Philistines
<06430>
went up
<05927> (8799)
to seek
<01245> (8763)
David
<01732>_.
And David
<01732>
heard
<08085> (8799)
[of it], and went out
<03318> (8799)
against
<06440>
them.
And the Philistines
<06430>
came
<0935> (8804)
and spread
<06584> (8799)
themselves in the valley
<06010>
of Rephaim
<07497>_.
And David
<01732>
enquired
<07592> (8799)
of God
<0430>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Shall I go up
<05927> (8799)
against the Philistines
<06430>_?
and wilt thou deliver
<05414> (8804)
them into mine hand
<03027>_?
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Go up
<05927> (8798)_;
for I will deliver
<05414> (8804)
them into thine hand
<03027>_.
So they came up
<05927> (8799)
to Baalperazim
<01188>_;
and David
<01732>
smote
<05221> (8686)
them there. Then David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
God
<0430>
hath broken in
<06555> (8804)
upon mine enemies
<0341> (8802)
by mine hand
<03027>
like the breaking forth
<06556>
of waters
<04325>_:
therefore they called
<07121> (8804)
the name
<08034>
of that place
<04725>
Baalperazim
<01188>_.
{Baalperazim: that is, A place of breaches}
And when they had left
<05800> (8799)
their gods
<0430>
there, David
<01732>
gave a commandment
<0559> (8799)_,
and they were burned
<08313> (8735)
with fire
<0784>_.
And the Philistines
<06430>
yet again
<03254> (8686)
spread themselves abroad
<06584> (8799)
in the valley
<06010>_.
Therefore David
<01732>
enquired
<07592> (8799)
again of God
<0430>_;
and God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Go not up
<05927> (8799)
after
<0310>
them; turn away
<05437> (8685)
from them, and come
<0935> (8804)
upon them over against
<04136>
the mulberry trees
<01057>_.
And it shall be, when thou shalt hear
<08085> (8800)
a sound
<06963>
of going
<06807>
in the tops
<07218>
of the mulberry trees
<01057>_,
[that] then thou shalt go out
<03318> (8799)
to battle
<04421>_:
for God
<0430>
is gone forth
<03318> (8804)
before
<06440>
thee to smite
<05221> (8687)
the host
<04264>
of the Philistines
<06430>_.
David
<01732>
therefore did
<06213> (8799)
as God
<0430>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
him: and they smote
<05221> (8686)
the host
<04264>
of the Philistines
<06430>
from Gibeon
<01391>
even to Gazer
<01507>_.
{Gibeon: also called, Geba}
And the fame
<08034>
of David
<01732>
went out
<03318> (8799)
into all lands
<0776>_;
and the LORD
<03068>
brought
<05414> (8804)
the fear
<06343>
of him upon all nations
<01471>_.
And [David] made
<06213> (8799)
him houses
<01004>
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_,
and prepared
<03559> (8686)
a place
<04725>
for the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>_,
and pitched
<05186> (8799)
for it a tent
<0168>_.
Then David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
None ought to carry
<05375> (8800)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
but the Levites
<03881>_:
for them hath the LORD
<03068>
chosen
<0977> (8804)
to carry
<05375> (8800)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>_,
and to minister
<08334> (8763)
unto him for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
{None...: Heb. It is not to carry the ark of God, but for the Levites}
And David
<01732>
gathered
<06950> (0)
all Israel
<03478>
together
<06950> (8686)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
to bring up
<05927> (8687)
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>
unto his place
<04725>_,
which he had prepared
<03559> (8689)
for it.
And David
<01732>
assembled
<0622> (8799)
the children
<01121>
of Aaron
<0175>_,
and the Levites
<03881>_:
Of the sons
<01121>
of Kohath
<06955>_;
Uriel
<0222>
the chief
<08269>_,
and his brethren
<0251>
an hundred
<03967>
and twenty
<06242>_:
{brethren: or, kinsmen}
Of the sons
<01121>
of Merari
<04847>_;
Asaiah
<06222>
the chief
<08269>_,
and his brethren
<0251>
two hundred
<03967>
and twenty
<06242>_:
Of the sons
<01121>
of Gershom
<01647>_;
Joel
<03100>
the chief
<08269>_,
and his brethren
<0251>
an hundred
<03967>
and thirty
<07970>_:
Of the sons
<01121>
of Elizaphan
<0469>_;
Shemaiah
<08098>
the chief
<08269>_,
and his brethren
<0251>
two hundred
<03967>_:
Of the sons
<01121>
of Hebron
<02275>_;
Eliel
<0447>
the chief
<08269>_,
and his brethren
<0251>
fourscore
<08084>_:
Of the sons
<01121>
of Uzziel
<05816>_;
Amminadab
<05992>
the chief
<08269>_,
and his brethren
<0251>
an hundred
<03967>
and twelve
<08147> <06240>_.
And David
<01732>
called
<07121> (8799)
for Zadok
<06659>
and Abiathar
<054>
the priests
<03548>_,
and for the Levites
<03881>_,
for Uriel
<0222>_,
Asaiah
<06222>_,
and Joel
<03100>_,
Shemaiah
<08098>_,
and Eliel
<0447>_,
and Amminadab
<05992>_,
And said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Ye [are] the chief
<07218>
of the fathers
<01>
of the Levites
<03881>_:
sanctify
<06942> (8690)
yourselves, [both] ye and your brethren
<0251>_,
that ye may bring up
<05927> (8689)
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
unto [the place that] I have prepared
<03559> (8689)
for it.
For because ye [did it] not at the first
<07223>_,
the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>
made a breach
<06555> (8804)
upon us, for that we sought
<01875> (8804)
him not after the due order
<04941>_.
So the priests
<03548>
and the Levites
<03881>
sanctified
<06942> (8691)
themselves to bring up
<05927> (8687)
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And the children
<01121>
of the Levites
<03881>
bare
<05375> (8799)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>
upon their shoulders
<03802>
with the staves
<04133>
thereon, as Moses
<04872>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And David
<01732>
spake
<0559> (8799)
to the chief
<08269>
of the Levites
<03881>
to appoint
<05975> (8687)
their brethren
<0251>
[to be] the singers
<07891> (8789)
with instruments
<03627>
of musick
<07892>_,
psalteries
<05035>
and harps
<03658>
and cymbals
<04700>_,
sounding
<08085> (8688)_,
by lifting up
<07311> (8687)
the voice
<06963>
with joy
<08057>_.
So the Levites
<03881>
appointed
<05975> (8686)
Heman
<01968>
the son
<01121>
of Joel
<03100>_;
and of his brethren
<0251>_,
Asaph
<0623>
the son
<01121>
of Berechiah
<01296>_;
and of the sons
<01121>
of Merari
<04847>
their brethren
<0251>_,
Ethan
<0387>
the son
<01121>
of Kushaiah
<06984>_;
And with them their brethren
<0251>
of the second
<04932>
[degree], Zechariah
<02148>_,
Ben
<01122>_,
and Jaaziel
<03268>_,
and Shemiramoth
<08070>_,
and Jehiel
<03171>_,
and Unni
<06042>_,
Eliab
<0446>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>_,
and Maaseiah
<04641>_,
and Mattithiah
<04993>_,
and Elipheleh
<0466>_,
and Mikneiah
<04737>_,
and Obededom
<05654>_,
and Jeiel
<03273>_,
the porters
<07778>_.
So the singers
<07891> (8789)_,
Heman
<01968>_,
Asaph
<0623>_,
and Ethan
<0387>_,
[were appointed] to sound
<08085> (8687)
with cymbals
<04700>
of brass
<05178>_;
And Zechariah
<02148>_,
and Aziel
<05815>_,
and Shemiramoth
<08070>_,
and Jehiel
<03171>_,
and Unni
<06042>_,
and Eliab
<0446>_,
and Maaseiah
<04641>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>_,
with psalteries
<05035>
on Alamoth
<05961>_;
And Mattithiah
<04993>_,
and Elipheleh
<0466>_,
and Mikneiah
<04737>_,
and Obededom
<05654>_,
and Jeiel
<03273>_,
and Azaziah
<05812>_,
with harps
<03658>
on the Sheminith
<08067>
to excel
<05329> (8763)_.
{on the...: or, on the eighth to oversee}
And Chenaniah
<03663>_,
chief
<08269>
of the Levites
<03881>_,
[was] for song
<04853>_:
he instructed
<03256>
about the song
<04853>_,
because he [was] skilful
<0995> (8688)_.
{was for...: or, was for the carriage: he instructed about the carriage} {song: Heb. lifting up}
And Berechiah
<01296>
and Elkanah
<0511>
[were] doorkeepers
<07778>
for the ark
<0727>_.
And Shebaniah
<07645>_,
and Jehoshaphat
<03146>_,
and Nethaneel
<05417>_,
and Amasai
<06022>_,
and Zechariah
<02148>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>_,
and Eliezer
<0461>_,
the priests
<03548>_,
did blow
<02690> (8688) (8675) <02690> (8764)
with the trumpets
<02689>
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>_:
and Obededom
<05654>
and Jehiah
<03174>
[were] doorkeepers
<07778>
for the ark
<0727>_.
So David
<01732>_,
and the elders
<02205>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and the captains
<08269>
over thousands
<0505>_,
went
<01980> (8802)
to bring up
<05927> (8687)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
out of the house
<01004>
of Obededom
<05654>
with joy
<08057>_.
And it came to pass, when God
<0430>
helped
<05826> (8800)
the Levites
<03881>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
that they offered
<02076> (8799)
seven
<07651>
bullocks
<06499>
and seven
<07651>
rams
<0352>_.
And David
<01732>
[was] clothed
<03736> (8794)
with a robe
<04598>
of fine linen
<0948>_,
and all the Levites
<03881>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>_,
and the singers
<07891> (8789)_,
and Chenaniah
<03663>
the master
<08269>
of the song
<04853>
with the singers
<07891> (8789)_:
David
<01732>
also [had] upon him an ephod
<0646>
of linen
<0906>_.
{song: or, carriage}
Thus all Israel
<03478>
brought up
<05927> (8688)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
with shouting
<08643>_,
and with sound
<06963>
of the cornet
<07782>_,
and with trumpets
<02689>_,
and with cymbals
<04700>_,
making a noise
<08085> (8688)
with psalteries
<05035>
and harps
<03658>_.
And it came to pass, [as] the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
came
<0935> (8804)
to the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_,
that Michal
<04324>
the daughter
<01323>
of Saul
<07586>
looking out
<08259> (8738)
at a window
<02474>
saw
<07200> (8799)
king
<04428>
David
<01732>
dancing
<07540> (8764)
and playing
<07832> (8764)_:
and she despised
<0959> (8799)
him in her heart
<03820>_.
So they brought
<0935> (8686)
the ark
<0727>
of God
<0430>_,
and set
<03322> (8686)
it in the midst
<08432>
of the tent
<0168>
that David
<01732>
had pitched
<05186> (8804)
for it: and they offered
<07126> (8686)
burnt sacrifices
<05930>
and peace offerings
<08002>
before
<06440>
God
<0430>_.
And when David
<01732>
had made an end
<03615> (8762)
of offering
<05927> (8687)
the burnt offerings
<05930>
and the peace offerings
<08002>_,
he blessed
<01288> (8762)
the people
<05971>
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And he dealt
<02505> (8762)
to every one
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>_,
both man
<0376>
and woman
<0802>_,
to every one
<0376>
a loaf
<03603>
of bread
<03899>_,
and a good piece of flesh
<0829>_,
and a flagon
<0809>
[of wine].
And he appointed
<05414> (8799)
[certain] of the Levites
<03881>
to minister
<08334> (8764)
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and to record
<02142> (8687)_,
and to thank
<03034> (8687)
and praise
<01984> (8763)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_:
Asaph
<0623>
the chief
<07218>_,
and next
<04932>
to him Zechariah
<02148>_,
Jeiel
<03273>_,
and Shemiramoth
<08070>_,
and Jehiel
<03171>_,
and Mattithiah
<04993>_,
and Eliab
<0446>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>_,
and Obededom
<05654>_:
and Jeiel
<03273>
with psalteries
<05035> <03627>
and with harps
<03658>_;
but Asaph
<0623>
made a sound
<08085> (8688)
with cymbals
<04700>_;
{with psalteries...: Heb. with instruments of psalteries and harps}
Benaiah
<01141>
also and Jahaziel
<03166>
the priests
<03548>
with trumpets
<02689>
continually
<08548>
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of God
<0430>_.
Then on that day
<03117>
David
<01732>
delivered
<05414> (8804)
first
<07218>
[this psalm] to thank
<03034> (8687)
the LORD
<03068>
into the hand
<03027>
of Asaph
<0623>
and his brethren
<0251>_.
Give thanks
<03034> (8685)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
call
<07121> (8798)
upon his name
<08034>_,
make known
<03045> (8685)
his deeds
<05949>
among the people
<05971>_.
Sing
<07891> (8798)
unto him, sing psalms
<02167> (8761)
unto him, talk
<07878> (8798)
ye of all his wondrous
<06381> (8737)
works.
Glory
<01984> (8690)
ye in his holy
<06944>
name
<08034>_:
let the heart
<03820>
of them rejoice
<08055> (8799)
that seek
<01245> (8764)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Seek
<01875> (8798)
the LORD
<03068>
and his strength
<05797>_,
seek
<01245> (8761)
his face
<06440>
continually
<08548>_.
Remember
<02142> (8798)
his marvellous
<06381> (8737)
works that he hath done
<06213> (8804)_,
his wonders
<04159>_,
and the judgments
<04941>
of his mouth
<06310>_;
O ye seed
<02233>
of Israel
<03478>
his servant
<05650>_,
ye children
<01121>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
his chosen ones
<0972>_.
He [is] the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_;
his judgments
<04941>
[are] in all the earth
<0776>_.
Be ye mindful
<02142> (8798)
always
<05769>
of his covenant
<01285>_;
the word
<01697>
[which] he commanded
<06680> (8765)
to a thousand
<0505>
generations
<01755>_;
[Even of the covenant] which he made
<03772> (8804)
with Abraham
<085>_,
and of his oath
<07621>
unto Isaac
<03327>_;
And hath confirmed
<05975> (8686)
the same to Jacob
<03290>
for a law
<02706>_,
[and] to Israel
<03478>
[for] an everlasting
<05769>
covenant
<01285>_,
Saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Unto thee will I give
<05414> (8799)
the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_,
the lot
<02256>
of your inheritance
<05159>_;
{the lot: Heb. the cord}
When ye were but few
<04557> <04962>_,
even a few
<04592>_,
and strangers
<01481> (8802)
in it. {few, even: Heb. men of number, etc}
And [when] they went
<01980> (8691)
from nation
<01471>
to nation
<01471>_,
and from [one] kingdom
<04467>
to another
<0312>
people
<05971>_;
He suffered
<03240> (8689)
no man
<0376>
to do them wrong
<06231> (8800)_:
yea, he reproved
<03198> (8686)
kings
<04428>
for their sakes,
[Saying], Touch
<05060> (8799)
not mine anointed
<04899>_,
and do my prophets
<05030>
no harm
<07489> (8686)_.
Sing
<07891> (8798)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
all the earth
<0776>_;
shew forth
<01319> (8761)
from day
<03117>
to day
<03117>
his salvation
<03444>_.
Declare
<05608> (8761)
his glory
<03519>
among the heathen
<01471>_;
his marvellous works
<06381> (8737)
among all nations
<05971>_.
For great
<01419>
[is] the LORD
<03068>_,
and greatly
<03966>
to be praised
<01984> (8794)_:
he also [is] to be feared
<03372> (8737)
above all gods
<0430>_.
For all the gods
<0430>
of the people
<05971>
[are] idols
<0457>_:
but the LORD
<03068>
made
<06213> (8804)
the heavens
<08064>_.
Glory
<01935>
and honour
<01926>
[are] in his presence
<06440>_;
strength
<05797>
and gladness
<02304>
[are] in his place
<04725>_.
Give
<03051> (8798)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
ye kindreds
<04940>
of the people
<05971>_,
give
<03051> (8798)
unto the LORD
<03068>
glory
<03519>
and strength
<05797>_.
Give
<03051> (8798)
unto the LORD
<03068>
the glory
<03519>
[due] unto his name
<08034>_:
bring
<05375> (8798)
an offering
<04503>_,
and come
<0935> (8798)
before
<06440>
him: worship
<07812> (8690)
the LORD
<03068>
in the beauty
<01927>
of holiness
<06944>_.
Fear
<02342> (8798)
before
<06440>
him, all the earth
<0776>_:
the world
<08398>
also shall be stable
<03559> (8735)_,
that it be not moved
<04131> (8735)_.
Let the heavens
<08064>
be glad
<08055> (8799)_,
and let the earth
<0776>
rejoice
<01523> (8799)_:
and let [men] say
<0559> (8799)
among the nations
<01471>_,
The LORD
<03068>
reigneth
<04427> (8804)_.
Let the sea
<03220>
roar
<07481> (8799)_,
and the fulness
<04393>
thereof: let the fields
<07704>
rejoice
<05970> (8799)_,
and all that [is] therein.
Then shall the trees
<06086>
of the wood
<03293>
sing out
<07442> (8762)
at the presence
<06440>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
because he cometh
<0935> (8804)
to judge
<08199> (8800)
the earth
<0776>_.
O give thanks
<03034> (8685)
unto the LORD
<03068>_;
for [he is] good
<02896>_;
for his mercy
<02617>
[endureth] for ever
<05769>_.
And say
<0559> (8798)
ye, Save
<03467> (8685)
us, O God
<0430>
of our salvation
<03468>_,
and gather us together
<06908> (8761)_,
and deliver
<05337> (8685)
us from the heathen
<01471>_,
that we may give thanks
<03034> (8687)
to thy holy
<06944>
name
<08034>_,
[and] glory
<07623> (8692)
in thy praise
<08416>_.
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
for ever
<05769>
and ever
<05769>_.
And all the people
<05971>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Amen
<0543>_,
and praised
<01984> (8763)
the LORD
<03068>_.
So he left
<05800> (8799)
there before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
Asaph
<0623>
and his brethren
<0251>_,
to minister
<08334> (8763)
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
continually
<08548>_,
as every day's
<03117>
work
<01697>
required
<03117>_:
And Obededom
<05654>
with their brethren
<0251>_,
threescore
<08346>
and eight
<08083>_;
Obededom
<05654>
also the son
<01121>
of Jeduthun
<03038>
and Hosah
<02621>
[to be] porters
<07778>_:
And Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>_,
and his brethren
<0251>
the priests
<03548>_,
before
<06440>
the tabernacle
<04908>
of the LORD
<03068>
in the high place
<01116>
that [was] at Gibeon
<01391>_,
To offer
<05927> (8687)
burnt offerings
<05930>
unto the LORD
<03068>
upon the altar
<04196>
of the burnt offering
<05930>
continually
<08548>
morning
<01242>
and evening
<06153>_,
and [to do] according to all that is written
<03789> (8803)
in the law
<08451>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which he commanded
<06680> (8765)
Israel
<03478>_;
{morning...: Heb. in the morning, and in the evening}
And with them Heman
<01968>
and Jeduthun
<03038>_,
and the rest
<07605>
that were chosen
<01305> (8803)_,
who were expressed
<05344> (8738)
by name
<08034>_,
to give thanks
<03034> (8687)
to the LORD
<03068>_,
because his mercy
<02617>
[endureth] for ever
<05769>_;
And with them Heman
<01968>
and Jeduthun
<03038>
with trumpets
<02689>
and cymbals
<04700>
for those that should make a sound
<08085> (8688)_,
and with musical
<07892>
instruments
<03627>
of God
<0430>_.
And the sons
<01121>
of Jeduthun
<03038>
[were] porters
<08179>_.
{porters: Heb. for the gate}
And all the people
<05971>
departed
<03212> (8799)
every man
<0376>
to his house
<01004>_:
and David
<01732>
returned
<05437> (8735)
to bless
<01288> (8763)
his house
<01004>_.
Now it came to pass, as David
<01732>
sat
<03427> (8804)
in his house
<01004>_,
that David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_,
Lo, I dwell
<03427> (8802)
in an house
<01004>
of cedars
<0730>_,
but the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
[remaineth] under curtains
<03407>_.
Then Nathan
<05416>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto David
<01732>_,
Do
<06213> (8798)
all that [is] in thine heart
<03824>_;
for God
<0430>
[is] with thee.
And it came to pass the same night
<03915>_,
that the word
<01697>
of God
<0430>
came to Nathan
<05416>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
and tell
<0559> (8804)
David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Thou shalt not build
<01129> (8799)
me an house
<01004>
to dwell in
<03427> (8800)_:
For I have not dwelt in
<03427> (8804)
an house
<01004>
since the day
<03117>
that I brought up
<05927> (8689)
Israel
<03478>
unto this day
<03117>_;
but have gone from tent
<0168>
to tent
<0168>_,
and from [one] tabernacle
<04908>
[to another]. {have gone: Heb. have been}
Wheresoever I have walked
<01980> (8694)
with all Israel
<03478>_,
spake
<01696> (8765)
I a word
<01697>
to any
<0259>
of the judges
<08199> (8802)
of Israel
<03478>_,
whom I commanded
<06680> (8765)
to feed
<07462> (8800)
my people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Why have ye not built
<01129> (8804)
me an house
<01004>
of cedars
<0730>_?
Now therefore thus shalt thou say
<0559> (8799)
unto my servant
<05650>
David
<01732>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
I took
<03947> (8804)
thee from the sheepcote
<05116>_,
[even] from following
<0310>
the sheep
<06629>_,
that thou shouldest be ruler
<05057>
over my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_:
{from following: Heb. from after}
And I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast walked
<01980> (8804)_,
and have cut off
<03772> (8686)
all thine enemies
<0341> (8802)
from before
<06440>
thee, and have made
<06213> (8804)
thee a name
<08034>
like the name
<08034>
of the great men
<01419>
that [are] in the earth
<0776>_.
Also I will ordain
<07760> (8804)
a place
<04725>
for my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
and will plant
<05193> (8804)
them, and they shall dwell
<07931> (8804)
in their place, and shall be moved
<07264> (8799)
no more; neither shall the children
<01121>
of wickedness
<05766>
waste
<01086> (8763)
them any more
<03254> (8686)_,
as at the beginning
<07223>_,
And since the time
<03117>
that I commanded
<06680> (8765)
judges
<08199> (8802)
[to be] over my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_.
Moreover I will subdue
<03665> (8689)
all thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_.
Furthermore I tell
<05046> (8686)
thee that the LORD
<03068>
will build
<01129> (8799)
thee an house
<01004>_.
And it shall come to pass, when thy days
<03117>
be expired
<04390> (8804)
that thou must go
<03212> (8800)
[to be] with thy fathers
<01>_,
that I will raise up
<06965> (8689)
thy seed
<02233>
after
<0310>
thee, which shall be of thy sons
<01121>_;
and I will establish
<03559> (8689)
his kingdom
<04438>_.
He shall build
<01129> (8799)
me an house
<01004>_,
and I will stablish
<03559> (8790)
his throne
<03678>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
I will be his father
<01>_,
and he shall be my son
<01121>_:
and I will not take
<05493> (0)
my mercy
<02617>
away
<05493> (8686)
from him, as I took
<05493> (8689)
[it] from [him] that was before
<06440>
thee:
But I will settle
<05975> (8689)
him in mine house
<01004>
and in my kingdom
<04438>
for ever
<05769>_:
and his throne
<03678>
shall be established
<03559> (8737)
for
<05704>
evermore
<05769>_.
According to all these words
<01697>_,
and according to all this vision
<02377>_,
so did Nathan
<05416>
speak
<01696> (8765)
unto David
<01732>_.
And David
<01732>
the king
<04428>
came
<0935> (8799)
and sat
<03427> (8799)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Who [am] I, O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>_,
and what [is] mine house
<01004>_,
that thou hast brought
<0935> (8689)
me hitherto
<01988>_?
And [yet] this was a small thing
<06994> (8799)
in thine eyes
<05869>_,
O God
<0430>_;
for thou hast [also] spoken
<01696> (8762)
of thy servant's
<05650>
house
<01004>
for a great while to come
<07350>_,
and hast regarded
<07200> (8804)
me according to the estate
<08448>
of a man
<0120>
of high degree
<04609>_,
O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>_.
What can
<03254> (0)
David
<01732>
[speak] more
<03254> (8686)
to thee for the honour
<03519>
of thy servant
<05650>_?
for thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
thy servant
<05650>_.
O LORD
<03068>_,
for thy servant's
<05650>
sake, and according to thine own heart
<03820>_,
hast thou done
<06213> (8804)
all this greatness
<01420>_,
in making known
<03045> (8687)
all [these] great things
<01420>_.
{great...: Heb. greatnesses}
O LORD
<03068>_,
[there is] none like thee, neither [is there any] God
<0430>
beside
<02108>
thee, according to all that we have heard
<08085> (8804)
with our ears
<0241>_.
And what one
<0259>
nation
<01471>
in the earth
<0776>
[is] like thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
whom God
<0430>
went
<01980> (8804)
to redeem
<06299> (8800)
[to be] his own people
<05971>_,
to make
<07760> (8800)
thee a name
<08034>
of greatness
<01420>
and terribleness
<03372> (8737)_,
by driving out
<01644> (8763)
nations
<01471>
from before
<06440>
thy people
<05971>_,
whom thou hast redeemed
<06299> (8804)
out of Egypt
<04714>_?
For thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>
didst thou make
<05414> (8799)
thine own people
<05971>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_;
and thou, LORD
<03068>_,
becamest their God
<0430>_.
Therefore now, LORD
<03068>_,
let the thing
<01697>
that thou hast spoken
<01696> (8765)
concerning thy servant
<05650>
and concerning his house
<01004>
be established
<0539> (8735)
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_,
and do
<06213> (8798)
as thou hast said
<01696> (8765)_.
Let it even be established
<0539> (8735)_,
that thy name
<08034>
may be magnified
<01431> (8799)
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
[is] the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
[even] a God
<0430>
to Israel
<03478>_:
and [let] the house
<01004>
of David
<01732>
thy servant
<05650>
[be] established
<03559> (8737)
before
<06440>
thee.
For thou, O my God
<0430>_,
hast told
<01540> (8804) <0241>
thy servant
<05650>
that thou wilt build
<01129> (8800)
him an house
<01004>_:
therefore thy servant
<05650>
hath found
<04672> (8804)
[in his heart] to pray
<06419> (8692)
before
<06440>
thee. {hast...: Heb. hast revealed the ear of thy servant}
And now, LORD
<03068>_,
thou art God
<0430>_,
and hast promised
<01696> (8762)
this goodness
<02896>
unto thy servant
<05650>_:
Now therefore let it please
<02974> (8689)
thee to bless
<01288> (8763)
the house
<01004>
of thy servant
<05650>_,
that it may be before
<06440>
thee for ever
<05769>_:
for thou blessest
<01288> (8765)_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
and [it shall be] blessed
<01288> (8794)
for ever
<05769>_.
{let...: or, it hath pleased thee}
Now after this
<0310>
it came to pass, that David
<01732>
smote
<05221> (8686)
the Philistines
<06430>_,
and subdued
<03665> (8686)
them, and took
<03947> (8799)
Gath
<01661>
and her towns
<01323>
out of the hand
<03027>
of the Philistines
<06430>_.
And he smote
<05221> (8686)
Moab
<04124>_;
and the Moabites
<04124>
became David's
<01732>
servants
<05650>_,
[and] brought
<05375> (8802)
gifts
<04503>_.
And David
<01732>
smote
<05221> (8686)
Hadarezer
<01928>
king
<04428>
of Zobah
<06678>
unto Hamath
<02574>_,
as he went
<03212> (8800)
to stablish
<05324> (8687)
his dominion
<03027>
by the river
<05104>
Euphrates
<06578>_.
{Hadarezer: or, Hadadezer}
And David
<01732>
took
<03920> (8799)
from him a thousand
<0505>
chariots
<07393>_,
and seven
<07651>
thousand
<0505>
horsemen
<06571>_,
and twenty
<06242>
thousand
<0505>
footmen
<0376> <07273>_:
David
<01732>
also houghed
<06131> (8762)
all the chariot
<07393>
[horses], but reserved
<03498> (8686)
of them an hundred
<03967>
chariots
<07393>_.
{seven...: or, seven hundred}
And when the Syrians
<0758>
of Damascus
<01834>
came
<0935> (8799)
to help
<05826> (8800)
Hadarezer
<01928>
king
<04428>
of Zobah
<06678>_,
David
<01732>
slew
<05221> (8686)
of the Syrians
<0758>
two
<08147>
and twenty
<06242>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>_.
{Damascus: Heb. Darmesek}
Then David
<01732>
put
<07760> (8799)
[garrisons] in Syriadamascus
<0758> <01834>_;
and the Syrians
<0758>
became David's
<01732>
servants
<05650>_,
[and] brought
<05375> (8802)
gifts
<04503>_.
Thus the LORD
<03068>
preserved
<03467> (8686)
David
<01732>
whithersoever he went
<01980> (8804)_.
And David
<01732>
took
<03947> (8799)
the shields
<07982>
of gold
<02091>
that were on the servants
<05650>
of Hadarezer
<01928>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
them to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
Likewise from Tibhath
<02880>_,
and from Chun
<03560>_,
cities
<05892>
of Hadarezer
<01928>_,
brought
<03947> (8804)
David
<01732>
very
<03966>
much
<07227>
brass
<05178>_,
wherewith Solomon
<08010>
made
<06213> (8804)
the brasen
<05178>
sea
<03220>_,
and the pillars
<05982>_,
and the vessels
<03627>
of brass
<05178>_.
{Tibhath...: called in the book of Samuel Betah, and Berothai}
Now when Tou
<08583>
king
<04428>
of Hamath
<02574>
heard
<08085> (8799)
how David
<01732>
had smitten
<05221> (8689)
all the host
<02428>
of Hadarezer
<01928>
king
<04428>
of Zobah
<06678>_;
{Tou: also called, Toi}
He sent
<07971> (8799)
Hadoram
<01913>
his son
<01121>
to king
<04428>
David
<01732>_,
to enquire
<07592> (8800)
of his welfare
<07965>_,
and to congratulate
<01288> (8763)
him, because he had fought
<03898> (8738)
against Hadarezer
<01928>_,
and smitten
<05221> (8686)
him; (for Hadarezer
<01928>
had war
<0376> <04421>
with Tou
<08583>;)
and [with him] all manner of vessels
<03627>
of gold
<02091>
and silver
<03701>
and brass
<05178>_.
{Hadoram: also called, Joram} {to enquire...: or, to salute} {to congratulate: Heb. to bless} {had war: Heb. was the man of wars}
Them also king
<04428>
David
<01732>
dedicated
<06942> (8689)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
with the silver
<03701>
and the gold
<02091>
that he brought
<05375> (8804)
from all [these] nations
<01471>_;
from Edom
<0123>_,
and from Moab
<04124>_,
and from the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_,
and from the Philistines
<06430>_,
and from Amalek
<06002>_.
Moreover Abishai
<052>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>
slew
<05221> (8689)
of the Edomites
<0123>
in the valley
<01516>
of salt
<04417>
eighteen
<08083> <06240>
thousand
<0505>_.
{Abishai: Heb. Abshai}
And he put
<07760> (8799)
garrisons
<05333>
in Edom
<0123>_;
and all the Edomites
<0123>
became David's
<01732>
servants
<05650>_.
Thus the LORD
<03068>
preserved
<03467> (8686)
David
<01732>
whithersoever he went
<01980> (8804)_.
So David
<01732>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
over all Israel
<03478>_,
and executed
<06213> (8802)
judgment
<04941>
and justice
<06666>
among all his people
<05971>_.
And Joab
<03097>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>
[was] over the host
<06635>_;
and Jehoshaphat
<03092>
the son
<01121>
of Ahilud
<0286>_,
recorder
<02142> (8688)_.
{recorder: or, remembrancer}
And Zadok
<06659>
the son
<01121>
of Ahitub
<0285>_,
and Abimelech
<040>
the son
<01121>
of Abiathar
<054>_,
[were] the priests
<03548>_;
and Shavsha
<07798>
was scribe
<05608> (8802)_;
{Abimelech: also called, Ahimelech} {Shavsha: also called Seraiah or Shisha}
And Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>
[was] over the Cherethites
<03774>
and the Pelethites
<06432>_;
and the sons
<01121>
of David
<01732>
[were] chief
<07223>
about
<03027>
the king
<04428>_.
{about...: Heb. at the hand of the king}
Now it came to pass after this
<0310>_,
that Nahash
<05176>
the king
<04428>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
died
<04191> (8799)_,
and his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
I will shew
<06213> (8799)
kindness
<02617>
unto Hanun
<02586>
the son
<01121>
of Nahash
<05176>_,
because his father
<01>
shewed
<06213> (8804)
kindness
<02617>
to me. And David
<01732>
sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>
to comfort
<05162> (8763)
him concerning his father
<01>_.
So the servants
<05650>
of David
<01732>
came
<0935> (8799)
into the land
<0776>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
to Hanun
<02586>_,
to comfort
<05162> (8763)
him.
But the princes
<08269>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Hanun
<02586>_,
Thinkest
<05869>
thou that David
<01732>
doth honour
<03513> (8764)
thy father
<01>_,
that he hath sent
<07971> (8804)
comforters
<05162> (8764)
unto thee? are not his servants
<05650>
come
<0935> (8804)
unto thee for to search
<02713> (8800)_,
and to overthrow
<02015> (8800)_,
and to spy out
<07270> (8763)
the land
<0776>_?
{Thinkest...: Heb. In thine eyes doth David, etc}
Wherefore Hanun
<02586>
took
<03947> (8799)
David's
<01732>
servants
<05650>_,
and shaved
<01548> (8762)
them, and cut off
<03772> (8799)
their garments
<04063>
in the midst
<02677>
hard by their buttocks
<04667>_,
and sent them away
<07971> (8762)_.
Then there went
<03212> (8799)
[certain], and told
<05046> (8686)
David
<01732>
how the men
<0582>
were served. And he sent
<07971> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
them: for the men
<0582>
were greatly
<03966>
ashamed
<03637> (8737)_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Tarry
<03427> (8798)
at Jericho
<03405>
until your beards
<02206>
be grown
<06779> (8762)_,
and [then] return
<07725> (8804)_.
And when the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that they had made themselves odious
<0887> (8694)
to David
<01732>_,
Hanun
<02586>
and the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
sent
<07971> (8799)
a thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>
of silver
<03701>
to hire
<07936> (8800)
them chariots
<07393>
and horsemen
<06571>
out of Mesopotamia
<0763>_,
and out of Syriamaachah
<0758> <04601>_,
and out of Zobah
<06678>_.
{odious: Heb. to stink}
So they hired
<07936> (8799)
thirty
<07970>
and two
<08147>
thousand
<0505>
chariots
<07393>_,
and the king
<04428>
of Maachah
<04601>
and his people
<05971>_;
who came
<0935> (8799)
and pitched
<02583> (8799)
before
<06440>
Medeba
<04311>_.
And the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
gathered themselves together
<0622> (8738)
from their cities
<05892>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to battle
<04421>_.
And when David
<01732>
heard
<08085> (8799)
[of it], he sent
<07971> (8799)
Joab
<03097>_,
and all the host
<06635>
of the mighty men
<01368>_.
And the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
came out
<03318> (8799)_,
and put the battle
<04421>
in array
<06186> (8799)
before the gate
<06607>
of the city
<05892>_:
and the kings
<04428>
that were come
<0935> (8804)
[were] by themselves in the field
<07704>_.
Now when Joab
<03097>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that the battle
<04421>
was set against him before
<06440>
and behind
<0268>_,
he chose out
<0977> (8799)
of all the choice
<0977> (8803)
of Israel
<03478>_,
and put [them] in array
<06186> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
the Syrians
<0758>_.
{the battle...: Heb. the face of the battle was} {choice: or, young men}
And the rest
<03499>
of the people
<05971>
he delivered
<05414> (8804)
unto the hand
<03027>
of Abishai
<052>
his brother
<0251>_,
and they set [themselves] in array
<06186> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_.
{Abishai: Heb. Abshai}
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
If the Syrians
<0758>
be too strong
<02388> (8799)
for me, then thou shalt help
<08668>
me: but if the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
be too strong
<02388> (8799)
for thee, then I will help
<03467> (8689)
thee.
Be of good courage
<02388> (8798)_,
and let us behave ourselves valiantly
<02388> (8691)
for our people
<05971>_,
and for the cities
<05892>
of our God
<0430>_:
and let the LORD
<03068>
do
<06213> (8799)
[that which is] good
<02896>
in his sight
<05869>_.
So Joab
<03097>
and the people
<05971>
that [were] with him drew nigh
<05066> (8799)
before
<06440>
the Syrians
<0758>
unto the battle
<04421>_;
and they fled
<05127> (8799)
before
<06440>
him.
And when the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
saw
<07200> (8804)
that the Syrians
<0758>
were fled
<05127> (8804)_,
they likewise fled
<05127> (8799)
before
<06440>
Abishai
<052>
his brother
<0251>_,
and entered
<0935> (8799)
into the city
<05892>_.
Then Joab
<03097>
came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And when the Syrians
<0758>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that they were put to the worse
<05062> (8738)
before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_,
they sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>_,
and drew forth
<03318> (8686)
the Syrians
<0758>
that [were] beyond
<05676>
the river
<05104>_:
and Shophach
<07780>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
of Hadarezer
<01928>
[went] before
<06440>
them. {river: that is, Euphrates} {Shophach: also called, Shobach}
And it was told
<05046> (8714)
David
<01732>_;
and he gathered
<0622> (8799)
all Israel
<03478>_,
and passed over
<05674> (8799)
Jordan
<03383>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
upon them, and set [the battle] in array
<06186> (8799)
against them. So when David
<01732>
had put the battle
<04421>
in array
<06186> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
the Syrians
<0758>_,
they fought
<03898> (8735)
with him.
But the Syrians
<0758>
fled
<05127> (8799)
before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_;
and David
<01732>
slew
<02026> (8799)
of the Syrians
<0758>
seven
<07651>
thousand
<0505>
[men which fought in] chariots
<07393>_,
and forty
<0705>
thousand
<0505>
footmen
<0376> <07273>_,
and killed
<04191> (8689)
Shophach
<07780>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>_.
And when the servants
<05650>
of Hadarezer
<01928>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that they were put to the worse
<05062> (8738)
before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_,
they made peace
<07999> (8686)
with David
<01732>_,
and became his servants
<05647> (8799)_:
neither would
<014> (8804)
the Syrians
<0758>
help
<03467> (8687)
the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
any more.
And it came to pass, that after
<06256>
the year
<08141>
was expired
<08666>_,
at the time
<06256>
that kings
<04428>
go out
<03318> (8800)
[to battle], Joab
<03097>
led forth
<05090> (8799)
the power
<02428>
of the army
<06635>_,
and wasted
<07843> (8686)
the country
<0776>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
and besieged
<06696> (8799)
Rabbah
<07237>_.
But David
<01732>
tarried
<03427> (8802)
at Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And Joab
<03097>
smote
<05221> (8686)
Rabbah
<07237>_,
and destroyed
<02040> (8799)
it. {after...: Heb. at the return of the year}
And David
<01732>
took
<03947> (8799)
the crown
<05850>
of their king
<04428>
from off his head
<07218>_,
and found
<04672> (8799)
it to weigh
<04948>
a talent
<03603>
of gold
<02091>_,
and [there were] precious
<03368>
stones
<068>
in it; and it was set upon David's
<01732>
head
<07218>_:
and he brought
<03318> (8689)
also exceeding
<03966>
much
<07235> (8687)
spoil
<07998>
out of the city
<05892>_.
{to weigh: Heb. the weight of}
And he brought out
<03318> (8689)
the people
<05971>
that [were] in it, and cut
<07787> (8799)
[them] with saws
<04050>_,
and with harrows
<02757>
of iron
<01270>_,
and with axes
<04050>_.
Even so dealt
<06213> (8799)
David
<01732>
with all the cities
<05892>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_.
And David
<01732>
and all the people
<05971>
returned
<07725> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And it came to pass after this
<0310>_,
that there arose
<05975> (8799)
war
<04421>
at Gezer
<01507>
with the Philistines
<06430>_;
at which time
<0227>
Sibbechai
<05444>
the Hushathite
<02843>
slew
<05221> (8689)
Sippai
<05598>_,
[that was] of the children
<03211>
of the giant
<07497>_:
and they were subdued
<03665> (8735)_.
{arose: or, continued: Heb. stood} {Gezer: also called, Gob} {Sippai: also called, Saph} {the giant: or, Rapha}
And there was war
<04421>
again with the Philistines
<06430>_;
and Elhanan
<0445>
the son
<01121>
of Jair
<03265>
slew
<05221> (8686)
Lahmi
<03902>
the brother
<0251>
of Goliath
<01555>
the Gittite
<01663>_,
whose spear
<02595>
staff
<06086>
[was] like a weaver's
<0707> (8802)
beam
<04500>_.
{Jair: also called, Jaareoregim}
And yet again there was war
<04421>
at Gath
<01661>_,
where was a man
<0376>
of [great] stature
<04060>_,
whose fingers
<0676>
and toes
<0676>
[were] four
<0702>
and twenty
<06242>_,
six
<08337>
[on each hand], and six
<08337>
[on each foot]: and he also was the son
<03205> (8738)
of the giant
<07497>_.
{great...: Heb. measure} {the son...: Heb. born to the giant, or, Rapha}
But when he defied
<02778> (8762)
Israel
<03478>_,
Jonathan
<03083>
the son
<01121>
of Shimea
<08092>
David's
<01732>
brother
<0251>
slew
<05221> (8686)
him. {defied: or, reproached} {Shimea: also called Shammah}
These
<0411>
were born
<03205> (8738)
unto the giant
<07497>
in Gath
<01661>_;
and they fell
<05307> (8799)
by the hand
<03027>
of David
<01732>_,
and by the hand
<03027>
of his servants
<05650>_.
And Satan
<07854>
stood up
<05975> (8799)
against Israel
<03478>_,
and provoked
<05496> (8686)
David
<01732>
to number
<04487> (8800)
Israel
<03478>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Joab
<03097>
and to the rulers
<08269>
of the people
<05971>_,
Go
<03212> (8798)_,
number
<05608> (8798)
Israel
<03478>
from Beersheba
<0884>
even to Dan
<01835>_;
and bring
<0935> (8685)
the number
<04557>
of them to me, that I may know
<03045> (8799)
[it].
And Joab
<03097>
answered
<0559> (8799)_,
The LORD
<03068>
make his people
<05971>
an hundred
<03967>
times
<06471>
so many more
<03254> (8686)
as they
<01992>
[be]: but, my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_,
[are] they not all my lord's
<0113>
servants
<05650>_?
why then doth my lord
<0113>
require
<01245> (8762)
this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass
<0819>
to Israel
<03478>_?
Nevertheless the king's
<04428>
word
<01697>
prevailed
<02388> (8804)
against Joab
<03097>_.
Wherefore Joab
<03097>
departed
<03318> (8799)_,
and went
<01980> (8691)
throughout all Israel
<03478>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And Joab
<03097>
gave
<05414> (8799)
the sum
<04557>
of the number
<04662>
of the people
<05971>
unto David
<01732>_.
And all [they of] Israel
<03478>
were a thousand
<0505>
thousand
<0505>
and an hundred
<03967>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
that drew
<08025> (8802)
sword
<02719>_:
and Judah
<03063>
[was] four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
threescore and ten
<07657>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
that drew
<08025> (8802)
sword
<02719>_.
But Levi
<03878>
and Benjamin
<01144>
counted
<06485> (8804)
he not among
<08432>
them: for the king's
<04428>
word
<01697>
was abominable
<08581> (8738)
to Joab
<03097>_.
And God
<0430>
was displeased
<03415> (8799) <05869>
with this thing
<01697>_;
therefore he smote
<05221> (8686)
Israel
<03478>_.
{And...: Heb. And it was evil in the eyes of the LORD concerning this thing}
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto God
<0430>_,
I have sinned
<02398> (8804)
greatly
<03966>_,
because I have done
<06213> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_:
but now, I beseech thee, do away
<05674> (8685)
the iniquity
<05771>
of thy servant
<05650>_;
for I have done very
<03966>
foolishly
<05528> (8738)_.
And the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8762)
unto Gad
<01410>_,
David's
<01732>
seer
<02374>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
and tell
<01696> (8765)
David
<01732>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
I offer
<05186> (8802)
thee three
<07969>
[things]: choose
<0977> (8798)
thee one
<0259>
of them
<02007>_,
that I may do
<06213> (8799)
[it] unto thee. {offer: Heb. stretch out}
So Gad
<01410>
came
<0935> (8799)
to David
<01732>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Choose
<06901> (8761)
thee {Choose...: Heb. Take to thee}
Either three
<07969>
years
<08141>_'
famine
<07458>_;
or three
<07969>
months
<02320>
to be destroyed
<05595> (8737)
before
<06440>
thy foes
<06862>_,
while that the sword
<02719>
of thine enemies
<0341> (8802)
overtaketh
<05381> (8688)
[thee]; or
<0518>
else three
<07969>
days
<03117>
the sword
<02719>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
even the pestilence
<01698>_,
in the land
<0776>_,
and the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
destroying
<07843> (8688)
throughout all the coasts
<01366>
of Israel
<03478>_.
Now therefore advise
<07200> (8798)
thyself what word
<01697>
I shall bring again
<07725> (8686)
to him that sent
<07971> (8802)
me.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Gad
<01410>_,
I am in a great
<03966>
strait
<06887> (8804)_:
let me fall
<05307> (8799)
now into the hand
<03027>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
for very
<03966>
great
<07227>
[are] his mercies
<07356>_:
but let me not fall
<05307> (8799)
into the hand
<03027>
of man
<0120>_.
{very great: or, very many}
So the LORD
<03068>
sent
<05414> (8799)
pestilence
<01698>
upon Israel
<03478>_:
and there fell
<05307> (8799)
of Israel
<03478>
seventy
<07657>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>_.
And God
<0430>
sent
<07971> (8799)
an angel
<04397>
unto Jerusalem
<03389>
to destroy
<07843> (8687)
it: and as he was destroying
<07843> (8687)_,
the LORD
<03068>
beheld
<07200> (8804)_,
and he repented
<05162> (8735)
him of the evil
<07451>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
to the angel
<04397>
that destroyed
<07843> (8688)_,
It is enough
<07227>_,
stay
<07503> (8685)
now thine hand
<03027>_.
And the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
stood
<05975> (8802)
by the threshingfloor
<01637>
of Ornan
<0771>
the Jebusite
<02983>_.
{Ornan: also called, Araunah}
And David
<01732>
lifted up
<05375> (8799)
his eyes
<05869>_,
and saw
<07200> (8799)
the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
stand
<05975> (8802)
between the earth
<0776>
and the heaven
<08064>_,
having a drawn
<08025> (8803)
sword
<02719>
in his hand
<03027>
stretched out
<05186> (8803)
over Jerusalem
<03389>_.
Then David
<01732>
and the elders
<02205>
[of Israel, who were] clothed
<03680> (8794)
in sackcloth
<08242>_,
fell
<05307> (8799)
upon their faces
<06440>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto God
<0430>_,
[Is it] not I [that] commanded
<0559> (8804)
the people
<05971>
to be numbered
<04487> (8800)_?
even I it is that have sinned
<02398> (8804)
and done evil
<07489> (8689)
indeed
<07489> (8687)_;
but [as for] these sheep
<06629>_,
what have they done
<06213> (8804)_?
let thine hand
<03027>_,
I pray thee, O LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
be on me, and on my father's
<01>
house
<01004>_;
but not on thy people
<05971>_,
that they should be plagued
<04046>_.
Then the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<0559> (8804)
Gad
<01410>
to say
<0559> (8800)
to David
<01732>_,
that David
<01732>
should go up
<05927> (8799)_,
and set up
<06965> (8687)
an altar
<04196>
unto the LORD
<03068>
in the threshingfloor
<01637>
of Ornan
<0771>
the Jebusite
<02983>_.
And David
<01732>
went up
<05927> (8799)
at the saying
<01697>
of Gad
<01410>_,
which he spake
<01696> (8765)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And Ornan
<0771>
turned back
<07725> (8799)_,
and saw
<07200> (8799)
the angel
<04397>_;
and his four
<0702>
sons
<01121>
with him hid
<02244> (8693)
themselves. Now Ornan
<0771>
was threshing
<01758> (8804)
wheat
<02406>_.
{And Ornan...: or, When Ornan turned back and saw the angel, then he and his four sons with him hid themselves}
And as David
<01732>
came
<0935> (8799)
to Ornan
<0771>_,
Ornan
<0771>
looked
<05027> (8686)
and saw
<07200> (8799)
David
<01732>_,
and went out
<03318> (8799)
of the threshingfloor
<01637>_,
and bowed
<07812> (8691)
himself to David
<01732>
with [his] face
<0639>
to the ground
<0776>_.
Then David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Ornan
<0771>_,
Grant
<05414> (8798)
me the place
<04725>
of [this] threshingfloor
<01637>_,
that I may build
<01129> (8799)
an altar
<04196>
therein unto the LORD
<03068>_:
thou shalt grant
<05414> (8798)
it me for the full
<04392>
price
<03701>_:
that the plague
<04046>
may be stayed
<06113> (8735)
from the people
<05971>_.
{Grant: Heb. Give}
And Ornan
<0771>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto David
<01732>_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
[it] to thee, and let my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
do
<06213> (8799)
[that which is] good
<02896>
in his eyes
<05869>_:
lo
<07200> (8798)_,
I give
<05414> (8804)
[thee] the oxen
<01241>
[also] for burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and the threshing instruments
<04173>
for wood
<06086>_,
and the wheat
<02406>
for the meat offering
<04503>_;
I give
<05414> (8804)
it all.
And king
<04428>
David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Ornan
<0771>_,
Nay; but I will verily
<07069> (8800)
buy
<07069> (8799)
it for the full
<04392>
price
<03701>_:
for I will not take
<05375> (8799)
[that] which [is] thine for the LORD
<03068>_,
nor offer
<05927> (8687)
burnt offerings
<05930>
without cost
<02600>_.
So David
<01732>
gave
<05414> (8799)
to Ornan
<0771>
for the place
<04725>
six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
shekels
<08255>
of gold
<02091>
by weight
<04948>_.
And David
<01732>
built
<01129> (8799)
there an altar
<04196>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and offered
<05927> (8686)
burnt offerings
<05930>
and peace offerings
<08002>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
upon the LORD
<03068>_;
and he answered
<06030> (8799)
him from heaven
<08064>
by fire
<0784>
upon the altar
<04196>
of burnt offering
<05930>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<0559> (8799)
the angel
<04397>_;
and he put up
<07725> (0)
his sword
<02719>
again
<07725> (8686)
into the sheath
<05084>
thereof.
At that time
<06256>
when David
<01732>
saw
<07200> (8800)
that the LORD
<03068>
had answered
<06030> (8804)
him in the threshingfloor
<01637>
of Ornan
<0771>
the Jebusite
<02983>_,
then he sacrificed
<02076> (8799)
there.
For the tabernacle
<04908>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which Moses
<04872>
made
<06213> (8804)
in the wilderness
<04057>_,
and the altar
<04196>
of the burnt offering
<05930>_,
[were] at that season
<06256>
in the high place
<01116>
at Gibeon
<01391>_.
But David
<01732>
could
<03201> (8804)
not go
<03212> (8800)
before
<06440>
it to enquire
<01875> (8800)
of God
<0430>_:
for he was afraid
<01204> (8738)
because
<06440>
of the sword
<02719>
of the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Then David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
This [is] the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>_,
and this [is] the altar
<04196>
of the burnt offering
<05930>
for Israel
<03478>_.
And David
<01732>
commanded
<0559> (8799)
to gather together
<03664> (8800)
the strangers
<01616>
that [were] in the land
<0776>
of Israel
<03478>_;
and he set
<05975> (8686)
masons
<02672> (8802)
to hew
<02672> (8800)
wrought
<01496>
stones
<068>
to build
<01129> (8800)
the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_.
And David
<01732>
prepared
<03559> (8689)
iron
<01270>
in abundance
<07230>
for the nails
<04548>
for the doors
<01817>
of the gates
<08179>_,
and for the joinings
<04226>_;
and brass
<05178>
in abundance
<07230>
without weight
<04948>_;
Also cedar
<0730>
trees
<06086>
in abundance
<0369> <04557>_:
for the Zidonians
<06722>
and they of Tyre
<06876>
brought
<0935> (8689)
much
<07230>
cedar
<0730>
wood
<06086>
to David
<01732>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Solomon
<08010>
my son
<01121>
[is] young
<05288>
and tender
<07390>_,
and the house
<01004>
[that is] to be builded
<01129> (8800)
for the LORD
<03068>
[must be] exceeding
<04605>
magnifical
<01431> (8687)_,
of fame
<08034>
and of glory
<08597>
throughout all countries
<0776>_:
I will [therefore] now make preparation
<03559> (8686)
for it. So David
<01732>
prepared
<03559> (8686)
abundantly
<07230>
before
<06440>
his death
<04194>_.
Then he called
<07121> (8799)
for Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>_,
and charged
<06680> (8762)
him to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
for the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Solomon
<08010>_,
My son
<01121>_,
as for me, it was in my mind
<03824>
to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
unto the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_:
But the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thou hast shed
<08210> (8804)
blood
<01818>
abundantly
<07230>_,
and hast made
<06213> (8804)
great
<01419>
wars
<04421>_:
thou shalt not build
<01129> (8799)
an house
<01004>
unto my name
<08034>_,
because thou hast shed
<08210> (8804)
much
<07227>
blood
<01818>
upon the earth
<0776>
in my sight
<06440>_.
Behold, a son
<01121>
shall be born
<03205> (8737)
to thee, who shall be a man
<0376>
of rest
<04496>_;
and I will give him rest
<05117> (8689)
from all his enemies
<0341> (8802)
round about
<05439>_:
for his name
<08034>
shall be Solomon
<08010>_,
and I will give
<05414> (8799)
peace
<07965>
and quietness
<08253>
unto Israel
<03478>
in his days
<03117>_.
{Solomon: that is, Peaceable}
He shall build
<01129> (8799)
an house
<01004>
for my name
<08034>_;
and he shall be my son
<01121>_,
and I [will be] his father
<01>_;
and I will establish
<03559> (8689)
the throne
<03678>
of his kingdom
<04438>
over Israel
<03478>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
Now, my son
<01121>_,
the LORD
<03068>
be with thee; and prosper
<06743> (8689)
thou, and build
<01129> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
as he hath said
<01696> (8765)
of thee.
Only the LORD
<03068>
give
<05414> (8799)
thee wisdom
<07922>
and understanding
<0998>_,
and give thee charge
<06680> (8762)
concerning Israel
<03478>_,
that thou mayest keep
<08104> (8800)
the law
<08451>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
Then shalt thou prosper
<06743> (8686)_,
if thou takest heed
<08104> (8799)
to fulfil
<06213> (8800)
the statutes
<02706>
and judgments
<04941>
which the LORD
<03068>
charged
<06680> (8765)
Moses
<04872>
with concerning Israel
<03478>_:
be strong
<02388> (8798)_,
and of good courage
<0553> (8798)_;
dread
<03372> (8799)
not, nor be dismayed
<02865> (8735)_.
Now, behold, in my trouble
<06040>
I have prepared
<03559> (8689)
for the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
an hundred
<03967>
thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>
of gold
<02091>_,
and a thousand
<0505>
thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>
of silver
<03701>_;
and of brass
<05178>
and iron
<01270>
without weight
<04948>_;
for it is in abundance
<07230>_:
timber
<06086>
also and stone
<068>
have I prepared
<03559> (8689)_;
and thou mayest add
<03254> (8686)
thereto. {trouble: or, poverty}
Moreover [there are] workmen
<06213> (8802) <04399>
with thee in abundance
<07230>_,
hewers
<02672> (8802)
and workers
<02796>
of stone
<068>
and timber
<06086>_,
and all manner of cunning men
<02450>
for every manner of work
<04399>_.
{workers...: that is, masons and carpenters}
Of the gold
<02091>_,
the silver
<03701>_,
and the brass
<05178>_,
and the iron
<01270>_,
[there is] no number
<04557>_.
Arise
<06965> (8798)
[therefore], and be doing
<06213> (8798)_,
and the LORD
<03068>
be with thee.
David
<01732>
also commanded
<06680> (8762)
all the princes
<08269>
of Israel
<03478>
to help
<05826> (8800)
Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>_,
[saying],
[Is] not the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
with you? and hath he [not] given you rest
<05117> (8689)
on every side
<05439>_?
for he hath given
<05414> (8804)
the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the land
<0776>
into mine hand
<03027>_;
and the land
<0776>
is subdued
<03533> (8738)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and before
<06440>
his people
<05971>_.
Now set
<05414> (8798)
your heart
<03824>
and your soul
<05315>
to seek
<01875> (8800)
the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_;
arise
<06965> (8798)
therefore, and build
<01129> (8798)
ye the sanctuary
<04720>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>_,
to bring
<0935> (8687)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and the holy
<06944>
vessels
<03627>
of God
<0430>_,
into the house
<01004>
that is to be built
<01129> (8737)
to the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
So when David
<01732>
was old
<02204> (8804)
and full
<07646> (8804)
of days
<03117>_,
he made Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>
king
<04427> (8686)
over Israel
<03478>_.
And he gathered together
<0622> (8799)
all the princes
<08269>
of Israel
<03478>_,
with the priests
<03548>
and the Levites
<03881>_.
Now the Levites
<03881>
were numbered
<05608> (8735)
from the age
<01121>
of thirty
<07970>
years
<08141>
and upward
<04605>_:
and their number
<04557>
by their polls
<01538>_,
man by man
<01397>_,
was thirty
<07970>
and eight
<08083>
thousand
<0505>_.
Of which
<0428>_,
twenty
<06242>
and four
<0702>
thousand
<0505>
[were] to set forward
<05329> (8763)
the work
<04399>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
and six
<08337>
thousand
<0505>
[were] officers
<07860> (8802)
and judges
<08199> (8802)_:
{set...: or, oversee}
Moreover four
<0702>
thousand
<0505>
[were] porters
<07778>_;
and four
<0702>
thousand
<0505>
praised
<01984> (8764)
the LORD
<03068>
with the instruments
<03627>
which I made
<06213> (8804)_,
[said David], to praise
<01984> (8763)
[therewith].
And David
<01732>
divided
<02505> (8735)
them into courses
<04256>
among the sons
<01121>
of Levi
<03878>_,
[namely], Gershon
<01648>_,
Kohath
<06955>_,
and Merari
<04847>_.
{courses: Heb. divisions}
Of the Gershonites
<01649>
[were], Laadan
<03936>_,
and Shimei
<08096>_.
{Laadan: or, Libni}
The sons
<01121>
of Laadan
<03936>_;
the chief
<07218>
[was] Jehiel
<03171>_,
and Zetham
<02241>_,
and Joel
<03100>_,
three
<07969>_.
The sons
<01121>
of Shimei
<08096>_;
Shelomith
<08019> (8675) <08013>_,
and Haziel
<02381>_,
and Haran
<02039>_,
three
<07969>_.
These [were] the chief
<07218>
of the fathers
<01>
of Laadan
<03936>_.
And the sons
<01121>
of Shimei
<08096>
[were], Jahath
<03189>_,
Zina
<02126>_,
and Jeush
<03266>_,
and Beriah
<01283>_.
These four
<0702>
[were] the sons
<01121>
of Shimei
<08096>_.
{Zina: or, Zizah}
And Jahath
<03189>
was the chief
<07218>_,
and Zizah
<02125>
the second
<08145>_:
but Jeush
<03266>
and Beriah
<01283>
had not many
<07235> (8689)
sons
<01121>_;
therefore they were in one
<0259>
reckoning
<06486>_,
according to [their] father's
<01>
house
<01004>_.
{had...: Heb. did not multiply sons}
The sons
<01121>
of Kohath
<06955>_;
Amram
<06019>_,
Izhar
<03324>_,

<02275>_,
and Uzziel
<05816>_,
four
<0702>_.
The sons
<01121>
of Amram
<06019>_;
Aaron
<0175>
and Moses
<04872>_:
and Aaron
<0175>
was separated
<0914> (8735)_,
that he should sanctify
<06942> (8687)
the most
<06944>
holy things
<06944>_,
he and his sons
<01121>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_,
to burn incense
<06999> (8687)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
to minister
<08334> (8763)
unto him, and to bless
<01288> (8763)
in his name
<08034>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
Now [concerning] Moses
<04872>
the man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
his sons
<01121>
were named
<07121> (8735)
of the tribe
<07626>
of Levi
<03878>_.
The sons
<01121>
of Moses
<04872>
[were], Gershom
<01647>_,
and Eliezer
<0461>_.
Of the sons
<01121>
of Gershom
<01647>_,
Shebuel
<07619>
[was] the chief
<07218>_.
{Shebuel: also called, Shubael}
And the sons
<01121>
of Eliezer
<0461>
[were], Rehabiah
<07345>
the chief
<07218>_.
And Eliezer
<0461>
had none other
<0312>
sons
<01121>_;
but the sons
<01121>
of Rehabiah
<07345>
were very
<04605>
many
<07235> (8804)_.
{the chief: or, the first} {very many: Heb. highly multiplied}
Of the sons
<01121>

<04187>_.
The sons
<01121>
of Mahli
<04249>_;
Eleazar
<0499>_,
and Kish
<07027>_.
And Eleazar
<0499>
died
<04191> (8799)_,
and had no sons
<01121>_,
but daughters
<01323>_:
and their brethren
<0251>
the sons
<01121>
of Kish
<07027>
took
<05375> (8799)
them. {brethren: or, kinsmen}
The sons
<01121>
of Mushi
<04187>_;
Mahli
<04249>_,
and Eder
<05740>_,
and Jeremoth
<03406>_,
three
<07969>_.
These [were] the sons
<01121>
of Levi
<03878>
after the house
<01004>
of their fathers
<01>_;
[even] the chief
<07218>
of the fathers
<01>_,
as they were counted
<06485> (8803)
by number
<04557>
of names
<08034>
by their polls
<01538>_,
that did
<06213> (8802)
the work
<04399>
for the service
<05656>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
from the age
<01121>
of twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
and upward
<04605>_.
For David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
The LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
hath given rest
<05117> (8689)
unto his people
<05971>_,
that they may dwell
<07931> (8799)
in Jerusalem
<03389>
for ever
<05769>_:
{that...: or, and he dwelleth in Jerusalem, etc}
And also unto the Levites
<03881>_;
they shall no [more] carry
<05375> (8800)
the tabernacle
<04908>_,
nor any vessels
<03627>
of it for the service
<05656>
thereof.
For by the last
<0314>
words
<01697>
of David
<01732>
the Levites

[were] numbered

from twenty
<06242>

<08141>

<01121>

<04605>_:
{numbered: Heb. number}
Because their office
<04612>
[was] to wait
<03027>
on the sons
<01121>
of Aaron
<0175>
for the service
<05656>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
in the courts
<02691>_,
and in the chambers
<03957>_,
and in the purifying
<02893>
of all holy things
<06944>_,
and the work
<04639>
of the service
<05656>
of the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_;
{their...: Heb. their station was at the hand of the sons of Aaron}
Both for the shewbread
<03899> <04635>_,
and for the fine flour
<05560>
for meat offering
<04503>_,
and for the unleavened

<07550>_,
and for [that which is baked in] the pan
<04227>_,
and for that which is fried
<07246> (8716)_,
and for all manner of measure
<04884>
and size
<04060>_;
{pan: or, flat plate}
And to stand
<05975> (8800)
every morning
<01242>
to thank
<03034> (8687)

<01984> (8763)

And to offer

<03068>
in the sabbaths
<07676>_,
in the new moons
<02320>_,
and on the set feasts
<04150>_,
by number
<04557>_,
according to the order
<04941>
commanded unto them, continually
<08548>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_:
And that they should keep

<0175>
their brethren
<0251>_,
in the service
<05656>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Now [these are] the divisions

The sons

<0175>_;
Nadab
<05070>_,
and Abihu
<030>_,

<030>
died
<04191> (8799)
before
<06440>
their father
<01>_,
and had no children
<01121>_:
therefore Eleazar
<0499>
and Ithamar
<0385>
executed the priest's office
<03547> (8762)_.
And David
<01732>
distributed

<01121>

<0499>
than of the sons
<01121>

<0385>_;
and [thus] were they divided
<02505> (8799)_.
Among the sons
<01121>
of Eleazar
<0499>
[there were] sixteen

Thus were they divided

by lot
<01486>_,
one sort
<0428>
with another
<0428>_;
for the governors
<08269>

<0430>_,

<01121>
of Nethaneel
<05417>
the scribe

<03881>_,
wrote
<03789> (8799)
them before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_,
and the princes
<08269>_,
and Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Ahimelech
<0288>
the son
<01121>
of Abiathar
<054>_,
and [before] the chief

These [were] the princes
<08269>
of the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>_.
But David
<01732>
took
<05375> (8804)
not the number
<04557>
of them from twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
and under
<04295>_:
because the LORD
<03068>
had said
<0559> (8804)
he would increase
<07235> (8687)
Israel
<03478>
like to the stars

of the heavens
<08064>_.
Joab
<03097>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>
began
<02490> (8689)
to number
<04487> (8800)_,
but he finished
<03615> (8765)
not, because there fell wrath
<07110>
for it
<02063>
against Israel
<03478>_;
neither was the number
<04557>
put
<05927> (8804)
in the account
<04557>
of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

And over the olive trees

<08256>
that [were] in the low plains
<08219>
[was] Baalhanan
<01177>
the Gederite

that fed
<07462> (8802)
in Sharon
<08289>
[was] Shitrai

All these [were] the rulers
<08269>
of the substance
<07399>
which [was] king
<04428>
David's
<01732>_.
Also Jonathan
<03083>
David's
<01732>
uncle
<01730>
was a counsellor
<03289> (8802)_,
a wise
<0995> (8688)
man
<0376>_,
and a scribe
<05608> (8802)_:
and Jehiel
<03171>
the son

<02453>
[was] with the king's
<04428>
sons

And Ahithophel
<0302>

and Hushai
<02365>
the Archite
<0757>

And David
<01732>
assembled
<06950> (8686)
all the princes
<08269>
of Israel
<03478>_,
the princes
<08269>
of the tribes
<07626>_,
and the captains
<08269>
of the companies
<04256>
that ministered
<08334> (8764)
to the king
<04428>
by course
<04256>_,
and the captains
<08269>
over the thousands
<0505>_,
and captains
<08269>
over the hundreds
<03967>_,
and the stewards
<08269>
over all the substance
<07399>
and possession
<04735>
of the king
<04428>_,
and of his sons
<01121>_,
with the officers
<05631>_,

and with all the valiant men
<02428>_,
unto Jerusalem
<03389>_.
{possession: or, cattle} {and of...: or, and his sons} {officers: or, eunuchs}
Then David
<01732>
the king
<04428>
stood up
<06965> (8799)
upon his feet
<07272>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)
me, my brethren
<0251>_,
and my people
<05971>_:
[As for me], I [had] in mine heart
<03824>
to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
of rest
<04496>
for the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and for the footstool
<01916> <07272>
of our God
<0430>_,
and had made ready
<03559> (8689)
for the building
<01129> (8800)_:
But God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto me, Thou shalt not build
<01129> (8799)
an house
<01004>
for my name
<08034>_,
because thou [hast been] a man
<0376>
of war
<04421>_,
and hast shed
<08210> (8804)
blood
<01818>_.
{blood: Heb. bloods}
Howbeit the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
chose
<0977> (8799)
me before all the house
<01004>
of my father
<01>
to be king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>
for ever
<05769>_:
for he hath chosen
<0977> (8804)
Judah
<03063>
[to be] the ruler
<05057>_;
and of the house
<01004>
of Judah
<03063>_,
the house
<01004>
of my father
<01>_;
and among the sons
<01121>
of my father
<01>
he liked
<07521> (8804)
me to make [me] king
<04427> (8687)
over all Israel
<03478>_:
And of all my sons
<01121>_,
(for the LORD
<03068>
hath given
<05414> (8804)
me many
<07227>
sons
<01121>,)
he hath chosen
<0977> (8799)
Solomon
<08010>
my son
<01121>
to sit
<03427> (8800)
upon the throne
<03678>
of the kingdom
<04438>
of the LORD
<03068>
over Israel
<03478>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, Solomon
<08010>
thy son
<01121>_,
he shall build
<01129> (8799)
my house
<01004>
and my courts
<02691>_:
for I have chosen
<0977> (8804)
him [to be] my son
<01121>_,
and I will be his father
<01>_.
Moreover I will establish
<03559> (8689)
his kingdom
<04438>
for ever
<05769>_,
if he be constant
<02388> (8799)
to do
<06213> (8800)
my commandments
<04687>
and my judgments
<04941>_,
as at this day
<03117>_.
{constant: Heb. strong}
Now therefore in the sight
<05869>
of all Israel
<03478>
the congregation
<06951>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and in the audience
<0241>
of our God
<0430>_,
keep
<08104> (8798)
and seek
<01875> (8798)
for all the commandments
<04687>
of the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_:
that ye may possess
<03423> (8799)
this good
<02896>
land
<0776>_,
and leave [it] for an inheritance
<05157> (8689)
for your children
<01121>
after
<0310>
you for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
And thou, Solomon
<08010>
my son
<01121>_,
know
<03045> (8798)
thou the God
<0430>
of thy father
<01>_,
and serve
<05647> (8798)
him with a perfect
<08003>
heart
<03820>
and with a willing
<02655>
mind
<05315>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
searcheth
<01875> (8802)
all hearts
<03824>_,
and understandeth
<0995> (8688)
all the imaginations
<03336>
of the thoughts
<04284>_:
if thou seek
<01875> (8799)
him, he will be found
<04672> (8735)
of thee; but if thou forsake
<05800> (8799)
him, he will cast thee off
<02186> (8686)
for ever
<05703>_.
Take heed
<07200> (8798)
now; for the LORD
<03068>
hath chosen
<0977> (8804)
thee to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
for the sanctuary
<04720>_:
be strong
<02388> (8798)_,
and do
<06213> (8798)
[it].
Then David
<01732>
gave
<05414> (8799)
to Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>
the pattern
<08403>
of the porch
<0197>_,
and of the houses
<01004>
thereof, and of the treasuries
<01597>
thereof, and of the upper chambers
<05944>
thereof, and of the inner
<06442>
parlours
<02315>
thereof, and of the place
<01004>
of the mercy seat
<03727>_,
And the pattern
<08403>
of all that he had by the spirit
<07307>_,
of the courts
<02691>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and of all the chambers
<03957>
round about
<05439>_,
of the treasuries
<0214>
of the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_,
and of the treasuries
<0214>
of the dedicated things
<06944>_:
{of all that...: Heb. of all that was with him}
Also for the courses
<04256>
of the priests
<03548>
and the Levites
<03881>_,
and for all the work
<04399>
of the service
<05656>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and for all the vessels
<03627>
of service
<05656>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
[He gave] of gold
<02091>
by weight
<04948>
for [things] of gold
<02091>_,
for all instruments
<03627>
of all manner of service
<05656>_;
[silver also] for all instruments
<03627>
of silver
<03701>
by weight
<04948>_,
for all instruments
<03627>
of every kind of service
<05656>_:
Even the weight
<04948>
for the candlesticks
<04501>
of gold
<02091>_,
and for their lamps
<05216>
of gold
<02091>_,
by weight
<04948>
for every candlestick
<04501>_,
and for the lamps
<05216>

<04501>
of silver
<03701>
by weight
<04948>_,
[both] for the candlestick
<04501>_,
and [also] for the lamps
<05216>
thereof, according to the use
<05656>
of every candlestick
<04501>_.
And by weight
<04948>
[he gave] gold
<02091>
for the tables
<07979>
of shewbread
<04635>_,
for every table
<07979>_;
and [likewise] silver
<03701>

<07979>

<03701>_:
Also pure

<07184>_:
and for the golden
<02091>
basons
<03713>
[he gave gold] by weight
<04948>

<03713>_;
and [likewise silver] by weight
<04948>
for every bason
<03713>
of silver
<03701>_:
And for the altar
<04196>

<07004>
refined
<02212> (8794)

<02091>

<04948>_;
and gold
<02091>
for the pattern
<08403>
of the chariot
<04818>
of the cherubims
<03742>_,
that spread out
<06566> (8802)
[their wings], and covered
<05526> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
All [this, said David], the LORD
<03068>
made me understand
<07919> (8689)
in writing
<03791>
by [his] hand
<03027>
upon me, [even] all the works
<04399>
of this pattern
<08403>_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>_,
Be strong
<02388> (8798)
and of good courage
<0553> (8798)_,
and do
<06213> (8798)
[it]: fear
<03372> (8799)
not, nor be dismayed
<02865> (8735)_:
for the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>_,
[even] my God
<0430>_,
[will be] with thee; he will not fail
<07503> (8686)
thee, nor forsake
<05800> (8799)
thee, until thou hast finished
<03615> (8800)
all the work
<04399>
for the service
<05656>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And, behold, the courses
<04256>
of the priests
<03548>
and the Levites
<03881>_,
[even they shall be with thee] for all the service
<05656>
of the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_:
and [there shall be] with thee for all manner of workmanship
<04399>
every willing
<05081>
skilful man
<02451>_,
for any manner of service
<05656>_:
also the princes
<08269>
and all the people
<05971>
[will be] wholly at thy commandment
<01697>_.
Furthermore David
<01732>
the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto all the congregation
<06951>_,
Solomon
<08010>
my son
<01121>_,
whom alone
<0259>
God
<0430>
hath chosen
<0977> (8804)_,
[is yet] young
<05288>
and tender
<07390>_,
and the work
<04399>
[is] great
<01419>_:
for the palace
<01002>
[is] not for man
<0120>_,
but for the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>_.
Now I have prepared
<03559> (8689)
with all my might
<03581>
for the house
<01004>
of my God
<0430>
the gold
<02091>
for [things to be made] of gold
<02091>_,
and the silver
<03701>
for [things] of silver
<03701>_,
and the brass
<05178>
for [things] of brass
<05178>_,

<01270>_,

<06086>

and of divers colours
<07553>_,
and all manner of precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_,
and marble
<07893>
stones
<068>
in abundance
<07230>_.
Moreover, because I have set my affection
<07521> (8800)
to the house
<01004>
of my God
<0430>_,
I have
<03426>
of mine own proper good
<05459>_,
of gold
<02091>
and silver
<03701>_,
[which] I have given
<05414> (8804)
to the house
<01004>
of my God
<0430>_,
over and above
<04605>
all that I have prepared
<03559> (8689)
for the holy
<06944>
house
<01004>_,
[Even] three
<07969>
thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>
of gold
<02091>_,
of the gold
<02091>
of Ophir
<0211>_,
and seven
<07651>
thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>
of refined
<02212> (8794)
silver
<03701>_,
to overlay
<02902> (8800)
the walls
<07023>
of the houses
<01004>
[withal]:
The gold
<02091>
for [things] of gold
<02091>_,
and the silver
<03701>
for [things] of silver
<03701>_,
and for all manner of work
<04399>
[to be made] by the hands
<03027>
of artificers
<02796>_.
And who [then] is willing
<05068> (8693)
to consecrate
<04390> (8763)
his service
<03027>
this day
<03117>
unto the LORD
<03068>_?
{consecrate his service: Heb. fill his hand}
Then the chief
<08269>
of the fathers
<01>
and princes
<08269>
of the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and the captains
<08269>
of thousands
<0505>
and of hundreds
<03967>_,
with the rulers
<08269>
of the king's
<04428>
work
<04399>_,
offered willingly
<05068> (8691)_,
And gave
<05414> (8799)
for the service
<05656>
of the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>
of gold
<02091>
five
<02568>
thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>
and ten thousand
<07239>
drams
<0150>_,
and of silver
<03701>
ten
<06235>
thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>_,
and of brass
<05178>
eighteen
<08083> <07239>
thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>_,
and one hundred
<03967>
thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>
of iron
<01270>_.
And they with whom [precious] stones
<068>
were found
<04672> (8737)
gave
<05414> (8804)
[them] to the treasure
<0214>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
by the hand
<03027>
of Jehiel
<03171>
the Gershonite
<01649>_.
Then the people
<05971>
rejoiced
<08055> (8799)_,
for that they offered willingly
<05068> (8692)_,
because with perfect
<08003>
heart
<03820>
they offered willingly
<05068> (8694)
to the LORD
<03068>_:
and David
<01732>
the king
<04428>
also rejoiced
<08055> (8804)
with great
<01419>
joy
<08057>_.
Wherefore David
<01732>
blessed
<01288> (8762)
the LORD
<03068>
before
<05869>
all the congregation
<06951>_:
and David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] thou, LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
our father
<01>_,
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>
and ever
<05769>_.
Thine, O LORD
<03068>_,
[is] the greatness
<01420>_,
and the power
<01369>_,
and the glory
<08597>_,
and the victory
<05331>_,
and the majesty
<01935>_:
for all [that is] in the heaven
<08064>
and in the earth
<0776>
[is thine]; thine [is] the kingdom
<04467>_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
and thou art exalted
<04984> (8693)
as head
<07218>
above all.
Both riches
<06239>
and honour
<03519>
[come] of thee
<06440>_,
and thou reignest
<04910> (8802)
over all; and in thine hand
<03027>
[is] power
<03581>
and might
<01369>_;
and in thine hand
<03027>
[it is] to make great
<01431> (8763)_,
and to give strength
<02388> (8763)
unto all.
Now therefore, our God
<0430>_,
we thank
<03034> (8688)
thee, and praise
<01984> (8764)
thy glorious
<08597>
name
<08034>_.
But who [am] I, and what [is] my people
<05971>_,
that we should be
<06113> (8799)
able
<03581>
to offer so willingly
<05068> (8692)
after this sort? for all things [come] of thee, and of thine own
<03027>
have we given
<05414> (8804)
thee. {be able: Heb. retain, or, obtain strength} {of thine...: Heb. of thine hand}
For we [are] strangers
<01616>
before
<06440>
thee, and sojourners
<08453>_,
as [were] all our fathers
<01>_:
our days
<03117>
on the earth
<0776>
[are] as a shadow
<06738>_,
and [there is] none abiding
<04723>_.
{abiding: Heb. expectation}
O LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_,
all this store
<01995>
that we have prepared
<03559> (8689)
to build
<01129> (8800)
thee an house
<01004>
for thine holy
<06944>
name
<08034>
[cometh] of thine hand
<03027>_,
and [is] all thine own.
I know
<03045> (8804)
also, my God
<0430>_,
that thou triest
<0974> (8802)
the heart
<03824>_,
and hast pleasure
<07521> (8799)
in uprightness
<03476>_.
As for me, in the uprightness
<04339>
of mine heart
<03824>
I have willingly offered
<05068> (8694)
all these things: and now have I seen
<07200> (8804)
with joy
<08057>
thy people
<05971>_,
which are present
<04672> (8738)
here, to offer willingly
<05068> (8692)
unto thee. {present: Heb. found}
O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Abraham
<085>_,
Isaac
<03327>_,
and of Israel
<03478>_,
our fathers
<01>_,
keep
<08104> (8798)
this for ever
<05769>
in the imagination
<03336>
of the thoughts
<04284>
of the heart
<03824>
of thy people
<05971>_,
and prepare
<03559> (8685)
their heart
<03824>
unto thee: {prepare: or, stablish}
And give
<05414> (8798)
unto Solomon
<08010>
my son
<01121>
a perfect
<08003>
heart
<03824>_,
to keep
<08104> (8800)
thy commandments
<04687>_,
thy testimonies
<05715>_,
and thy statutes
<02706>_,
and to do
<06213> (8800)
all [these things], and to build
<01129> (8800)
the palace
<01002>_,
[for] the which I have made provision
<03559> (8689)_.
And David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to all the congregation
<06951>_,
Now bless
<01288> (8761)
the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_.
And all the congregation
<06951>
blessed
<01288> (8762)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of their fathers
<01>_,
and bowed down their heads
<06915> (8799)_,
and worshipped
<07812> (8691)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and the king
<04428>_.
And they sacrificed
<02076> (8799)
sacrifices
<02077>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and offered
<05927> (8686)
burnt offerings
<05930>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
on the morrow
<04283>
after that day
<03117>_,
[even] a thousand
<0505>
bullocks
<06499>_,
a thousand
<0505>
rams
<0352>_,
[and] a thousand
<0505>
lambs
<03532>_,
with their drink offerings
<05262>_,
and sacrifices
<02077>
in abundance
<07230>
for all Israel
<03478>_:
And did eat
<0398> (8799)
and drink
<08354> (8799)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
on that day
<03117>
with great
<01419>
gladness
<08057>_.
And they made Solomon
<08010>
the son
<01121>
of David
<01732>
king
<04427> (8686)
the second time
<08145>_,
and anointed
<04886> (8799)
[him] unto the LORD
<03068>
[to be] the chief governor
<05057>_,
and Zadok
<06659>
[to be] priest
<03548>_.
Then Solomon
<08010>
sat on
<03427> (8799)
the throne
<03678>
of the LORD
<03068>
as king
<04428>
instead of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_,
and prospered
<06743> (8686)_;
and all Israel
<03478>
obeyed
<08085> (8799)
him.
And all the princes
<08269>_,
and the mighty men
<01368>_,
and all the sons
<01121>
likewise of king
<04428>
David
<01732>_,
submitted themselves
<05414> (8804) <03027> <08478>
unto Solomon
<08010>
the king
<04428>_.
{submitted...: Heb. gave the hand under Solomon}
And the LORD
<03068>
magnified
<01431> (8762)
Solomon
<08010>
exceedingly
<04605>
in the sight
<05869>
of all Israel
<03478>_,
and bestowed
<05414> (8799)
upon him [such] royal
<04438>
majesty
<01935>
as had not been on any king
<04428>
before
<06440>
him in Israel
<03478>_.
Thus David
<01732>
the son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>
reigned
<04427> (8804)
over all Israel
<03478>_.
And the time
<03117>
that he reigned
<04427> (8804)
over Israel
<03478>
[was] forty
<0705>
years
<08141>_;
seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
reigned
<04427> (8804)
he in Hebron
<02275>_,
and thirty
<07970>
and three
<07969>
[years] reigned
<04427> (8804)
he in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And he died
<04191> (8799)
in a good
<02896>
old age
<07872>_,
full
<07649>
of days
<03117>_,
riches
<06239>_,
and honour
<03519>_:
and Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead.
Now the acts
<01697>
of David
<01732>
the king
<04428>_,
first
<07223>
and last
<0314>_,
behold, they [are] written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<01697>
of Samuel
<08050>
the seer
<07200> (8802)_,
and in the book
<01697>
of Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_,
and in the book
<01697>
of Gad
<01410>
the seer
<02374>_,
{book: or, history: Heb. words}
With all his reign
<04438>
and his might
<01369>_,
and the times
<06256>
that went over
<05674> (8804)
him, and over Israel
<03478>_,
and over all the kingdoms
<04467>
of the countries
<0776>_.
