9 And eastward4217 he inhabited3427 to the entering935 in of the wilderness4057 from the river5104 Euphrates:6578 because3588 their cattle4735 were multiplied7235 in the land776 of Gilead.1568

10 And in the days3117 of Saul7586 they made6213 war4421 with the Hagarites,1905 who fell5307 by their hand:3027 and they dwelled3427 in their tents168 throughout5921 all3605 the east4217 land of Gilead.1568

16 And they dwelled3427 in Gilead1568 in Bashan,1316 and in her towns,1323 and in all3605 the suburbs4054 of Sharon,8289 on their borders.8444

17 All3605 these were reckoned3187 by genealogies3187 in the days3117 of Jotham3147 king4428 of Judah,3063 and in the days3117 of Jeroboam3379 king4428 of Israel.3478

19 And they made6213 war4421 with the Hagarites,1905 with Jetur,3195 and Nephish,5305 and Nodab.5114

20 And they were helped5826 against5921 them, and the Hagarites1905 were delivered5414 into their hand,3027 and all3605 that were with them: for they cried2199 to God430 in the battle,4421 and he was entreated6279 of them; because3588 they put their trust982 in him.

21 And they took away7617 their cattle;929 of their camels1581 fifty2572 thousand,505 and of sheep6629 two hundred3967 and fifty2572 thousand,505 and of asses2543 two thousand,505 and of men5315 120 an hundred3967 thousand.505

22 For there fell5307 down5422 many7227 slain,2491 because3588 the war4421 was of God.430 And they dwelled3427 in their steads8478 until5704 the captivity.1473

23 And the children1121 of the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh4519 dwelled3427 in the land:776 they increased7235 from Bashan1316 to Baalhermon1179 and Senir,8149 and to mount2022 Hermon.2768

25 And they transgressed4603 against the God430 of their fathers,1 and went a whoring2181 after310 the gods430 of the people5971 of the land,776 whom834 God430 destroyed8045 before6440 them.

26 And the God430 of Israel3478 stirred5782 up the spirit7307 of Pul6322 king4428 of Assyria,804 and the spirit7307 of Tilgathpilneser8407 king4428 of Assyria,804 and he carried1540 them away,1540 even the Reubenites,7206 and the Gadites,1425 and the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh,4519 and brought935 them to Halah,2477 and Habor,2249 and Hara,2024 and to the river5104 Gozan,1470 to this2088 day.3117

18 Who till now5704 2008 waited in the king's4428 gate8179 eastward:4217 they were porters7778 in the companies4264 of the children1121 of Levi.3878

19 And Shallum7967 the son1121 of Kore,6981 the son1121 of Ebiasaph,43 the son1121 of Korah,7141 and his brothers,251 of the house1004 of his father,1 the Korahites,7145 were over5921 the work4399 of the service,5656 keepers8104 of the gates5592 of the tabernacle:168 and their fathers,1 being over5921 the host4264 of the LORD,3068 were keepers8104 of the entry.3996

20 And Phinehas6372 the son1121 of Eleazar499 was the ruler5057 over5921 them in time6440 past, and the LORD3068 was with him.

21 And Zechariah2148 the son1121 of Meshelemiah4920 was porter7778 of the door6607 of the tabernacle168 of the congregation.4150

22 All3605 these which were chosen1305 to be porters7778 in the gates5592 were two hundred3967 and twelve.8147 6240 These1992 were reckoned3187 by their genealogy3188 in their villages,2691 whom834 1922 David1732 and Samuel8050 the seer7200 did ordain3245 in their set530 office.

23 So they and their children1121 had the oversight5921 of the gates8179 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 namely, the house1004 of the tabernacle,168 by wards.4931

24 In four702 quarters7307 were the porters,7778 toward the east,4217 west,3220 north,6828 and south.5045

25 And their brothers,251 which were in their villages,2691 were to come935 after seven7651 days3117 from time6256 to time6256 with them.

26 For these1992 Levites,3881 the four702 chief1368 porters,7778 were in their set530 office, and were over5921 the chambers3957 and treasuries214 of the house1004 of God.430

27 And they lodged3885 round5439 about the house1004 of God,430 because3588 the charge4931 was on them, and the opening4668 thereof every morning1242 pertained to them.

28 And certain of them had the charge5921 of the ministering5656 vessels,3627 that they should bring935 3318 them in and out by tale.4557

29 Some of them also were appointed4487 to oversee the vessels,3627 and all3605 the instruments3627 of the sanctuary,6944 and the fine flour,5560 and the wine,3196 and the oil,8081 and the frankincense,3828 and the spices.1314

30 And some of the sons1121 of the priests3548 made7543 the ointment4842 of the spices.1314

31 And Mattithiah,4993 one of the Levites,3881 who1931 was the firstborn1060 of Shallum7967 the Korahite,7145 had the set530 office over5921 the things that were made4639 in the pans.2281

32 And other of their brothers,251 of the sons1121 of the Kohathites,6956 were over5921 the show bread,3899 4635 to prepare3559 it every sabbath.7676

33 And these428 are the singers,7891 chief7218 of the fathers1 of the Levites,3881 who remaining in the chambers3957 were free:6362 for they were employed5921 in that work4399 day3119 and night.3915

34 These428 chief7218 fathers1 of the Levites3881 were chief7218 throughout their generations;8435 these428 dwelled3427 at Jerusalem.3389

35 And in Gibeon1391 dwelled3427 the father25 of Gibeon,25 Jehiel,3273 whose wife's802 name8034 was Maachah:4601

36 And his firstborn1060 son1121 Abdon,5658 then Zur,6698 and Kish,7027 and Baal,1168 and Ner,5369 and Nadab.5070

37 And Gedor,1446 and Ahio,283 and Zechariah,2148 and Mikloth.4732

38 And Mikloth4732 begat3205 Shimeam.8043 And they also637 dwelled3427 with their brothers251 at Jerusalem,3389 over5048 against5048 their brothers.251

39 And Ner5369 begat3205 Kish;7027 and Kish7027 begat3205 Saul;7586 and Saul7586 begat3205 Jonathan,3083 and Malchishua,4444 and Abinadab,41 and Eshbaal.792

40 And the son1121 of Jonathan3083 was Meribbaal:4807 and Meribbaal4810 begat3205 Micah.4318

41 And the sons1121 of Micah4318 were, Pithon,6377 and Melech,4429 and Tahrea,8475 and Ahaz.

42 And Ahaz271 begat3205 Jarah;3294 and Jarah3294 begat3205 Alemeth,5904 and Azmaveth,5820 and Zimri;2174 and Zimri2174 begat3205 Moza;4162

43 And Moza4162 begat3205 Binea;1150 and Rephaiah7509 his son,1121 Eleasah501 his son,1121 Azel682 his son.1121

44 And Azel682 had six8337 sons,1121 whose names8034 are these,428 Azrikam,5840 Bocheru,1074 and Ishmael,3458 and Sheariah,8187 and Obadiah,5662 and Hanan:2605 these428 were the sons1121 of Azel.682

10

1 Now the Philistines6430 fought3898 against5921 Israel;3478 and the men376 of Israel3478 fled5127 from before6440 the Philistines,6430 and fell5307 down slain2491 in mount2022 Gilboa.1533

2 And the Philistines6430 followed1692 hard5221 after310 Saul,7586 and after310 his sons;1121 and the Philistines6430 slew5221 Jonathan,3129 and Abinadab,41 and Malchishua,4444 the sons1121 of Saul.7586

3 And the battle4421 went sore3513 against5921 Saul,7586 and the archers3384 7198 hit4672 him, and he was wounded2342 of the archers.3384

4 Then said559 Saul7586 to his armor bearer,5375 3627 Draw8025 your sword,2719 and thrust1856 me through therewith; lest6435 these428 uncircumcised6189 come935 and abuse5953 me. But his armor bearer5375 3627 would14 not; for he was sore3966 afraid.3372 So Saul7586 took3947 a sword,2719 and fell5307 on it.

5 And when his armor bearer5375 3627 saw7200 that Saul7586 was dead,4191 he fell5307 likewise1571 on5921 the sword,2719 and died.4191

6 So Saul7586 died,4191 and his three7969 sons,1121 and all3605 his house1004 died4191 together.3162

7 And when all3605 the men376 of Israel3478 that were in the valley6010 saw7200 that they fled,5127 and that Saul7586 and his sons1121 were dead,4191 then they forsook5800 their cities,5892 and fled:5127 and the Philistines6430 came935 and dwelled3427 in them.

8 And it came1961 to pass on the morrow,4283 when the Philistines6430 came935 to strip6584 the slain,2491 that they found4672 Saul7586 and his sons1121 fallen5307 in mount2022 Gilboa.1533

9 And when they had stripped6584 him, they took5375 his head,7218 and his armor,3627 and sent7971 into the land776 of the Philistines6430 round5439 about, to carry1319 tidings1319 to their idols,6091 and to the people.5971

10 And they put7760 his armor3627 in the house1004 of their gods,430 and fastened8628 his head1538 in the temple1004 of Dagon.1712

11 And when all3605 Jabeshgilead3003 1568 heard8085 all3605 that the Philistines6430 had done6213 to Saul,7586

12 They arose,6965 all3605 the valiant2428 men,376 and took5375 away the body1480 of Saul,7586 and the bodies1480 of his sons,1121 and brought935 them to Jabesh,3003 and buried6912 their bones6106 under8478 the oak424 in Jabesh,3003 and fasted6684 seven7651 days.3117

13 So Saul7586 died4191 for his transgression4604 which834 he committed4603 against the LORD,3068 even against5921 the word1697 of the LORD,3068 which834 he kept8104 not, and also1571 for asking7592 counsel of one that had a familiar spirit,178 to inquire1875 of it;

14 And inquired1875 not of the LORD:3068 therefore he slew4191 him, and turned5437 the kingdom4410 to David1732 the son1121 of Jesse.3448

11

1 Then all3605 Israel3478 gathered6908 themselves to David1732 to Hebron,2275 saying,559 Behold,2009 we are your bone6106 and your flesh.1320

2 And moreover1571 in time8543 past,8032 even1571 when Saul7586 was king,4428 you were he that led3318 out and brought935 in Israel:3478 and the LORD3068 your God430 said559 to you, You shall feed7462 my people5971 Israel,3478 and you shall be ruler5057 over5921 my people5971 Israel.3478

3 Therefore came935 all3605 the elders2205 of Israel3478 to the king4428 to Hebron;2275 and David1732 made3772 a covenant1285 with them in Hebron2275 before6440 the LORD;3068 and they anointed4886 David1732 king4428 over5921 Israel,3478 according to the word1697 of the LORD3068 by Samuel.8050

4 And David1732 and all3605 Israel3478 went3212 to Jerusalem,3389 which1958 is Jebus;2982 where8033 the Jebusites2983 were, the inhabitants3427 of the land.776

5 And the inhabitants3427 of Jebus2982 said559 to David,1732 You shall not come935 here. Nevertheless David1732 took3920 the castle4686 of Zion,6726 which1958 is the city5892 of David.1732

6 And David1732 said,559 Whoever3605 smites5221 the Jebusites2983 first7223 shall be chief7218 and captain.8269 So Joab3097 the son1121 of Zeruiah6870 went5927 first7223 up, and was chief.7218

7 And David1732 dwelled3427 in the castle;4679 therefore5921 3651 they called7121 it the city5892 of David.1732

8 And he built1129 the city5892 round5439 about, even5704 from Millo4407 round5439 about: and Joab3097 repaired2421 the rest7605 of the city.5892

9 So David1732 waxed1980 greater1980 and greater:1419 for the LORD3068 of hosts6635 was with him.

10 These428 also are the chief7218 of the mighty1368 men whom834 David1732 had, who strengthened2388 themselves with him in his kingdom,4438 and with all3605 Israel,3478 to make him king,4427 according to the word1697 of the LORD3068 concerning5921 Israel.3478

11 And this428 is the number4557 of the mighty1368 men whom834 David had; Jashobeam,3434 an Hachmonite,2453 the chief7218 of the captains:7991 he lifted5782 up his spear2595 against5921 three7969 hundred3967 slain2491 by him at one259 time.6471

12 And after310 him was Eleazar499 the son1121 of Dodo,1734 the Ahohite,266 who1931 was one of the three7969 mighty 1368men.

13 He was with David1732 at Pasdammim,6450 and there8033 the Philistines6430 were gathered622 together to battle,4421 where was a parcel2513 of ground7704 full4392 of barley;8184 and the people5971 fled5127 from before6440 the Philistines.6430

14 And they set3320 themselves in the middle8432 of that parcel,2513 and delivered5337 it, and slew5221 the Philistines;6430 and the LORD3068 saved3467 them by a great1419 deliverance.8668

15 Now three7969 of the thirty7970 captains7218 went3381 down3381 to the rock6697 to David,1732 into413 the cave4631 of Adullam;5725 and the host4264 of the Philistines6430 encamped2583 in the valley6010 of Rephaim.7497

16 And David1732 was then227 in the hold,4686 and the Philistines'6430 garrison5333 was then227 at Bethlehem.1035

17 And David1732 longed,183 and said,559 Oh that one would give me drink8248 of the water4325 of the well953 of Bethlehem,1035 that is at the gate!8179

18 And the three7969 broke1234 through1234 the host4264 of the Philistines,6430 and drew7579 water4325 out of the well953 of Bethlehem,1035 that was by the gate,8179 and took5375 it, and brought935 it to David:1732 but David1732 would14 not drink8354 of it, but poured5258 it out to the LORD.3068

19 And said,559 My God430 forbid2486 it me, that I should do6213 this2063 thing: shall I drink8354 the blood1818 of these428 men582 that have put their lives5315 in jeopardy? for with the jeopardy of their lives5315 they brought935 it. Therefore he would14 not drink8354 it. These428 things did6213 these three7969 mightiest.1368

20 And Abishai52 the brother251 of Joab,3097 he was chief7218 of the three:7969 for lifting5782 up his spear2595 against5921 three7969 hundred,3967 he slew2490 them, and had1961 a name8034 among the three.7969

21 Of the three,7969 he was more honorable3513 than the two;8147 for he was their captain:8269 however, he attained935 not to the first three.7969

22 Benaiah1141 the son1121 of Jehoiada,3111 the son1121 of a valiant2428 man376 of Kabzeel,6909 who had done many7227 acts;6467 he slew5221 two8147 lion like739 men of Moab:4124 also he went3381 down3381 and slew5221 a lion738 in a pit953 in a snowy7950 day.3117

23 And he slew5221 an Egyptian,4713 a man376 of great stature,4060 five2568 cubits520 high; and in the Egyptian's4713 hand3027 was a spear2595 like a weaver's707 beam;4500 and he went3381 down3381 to him with a staff,7626 and plucked1497 the spear2595 out of the Egyptian's4713 hand,3027 and slew2026 him with his own spear.2595

24 These428 things did6213 Benaiah1141 the son1121 of Jehoiada,3111 and had the name8034 among the three7969 mighty 1368men.

25 Behold,2009 he was honorable3513 among4480 the thirty,7970 but attained935 not to the first three:7969 and David1732 set7760 him over5921 his guard.4928

26 Also the valiant1368 men of the armies2428 were, Asahel6214 the brother251 of Joab,3097 Elhanan445 the son1121 of Dodo1734 of Bethlehem,1035

36 Hepher2660 the Mecherathite,4382 Ahijah281 the Pelonite,6397

38 Joel3100 the brother251 of Nathan,5416 Mibhar4006 the son1121 of Haggeri,1905

39 Zelek6768 the Ammonite,5984 Naharai5171 the Berothite,1307 the armor bearer5375 3627 of Joab3097 the son1121 of Zeruiah,6870

41 Uriah223 the Hittite,2850 Zabad2066 the son1121 of Ahlai,304

42 Adina5721 the son1121 of Shiza7877 the Reubenite,7206 a captain7218 of the Reubenites,7206 and thirty7970 with him,

43 Hanan2605 the son1121 of Maachah,4601 and Joshaphat3146 the Mithnite,4981

44 Uzzia5814 the Ashterathite,6254 Shama8091 and Jehiel3273 the sons1121 of Hothan2369 the Aroerite,6200

45 Jediael3043 the son1121 of Shimri,8113 and Joha3109 his brother,251 the Tizite,8491

46 Eliel447 the Mahavite,4233 and Jeribai,3403 and Joshaviah,3145 the sons1121 of Elnaam,493 and Ithmah3495 the Moabite,4125

47 Eliel,447 and Obed,5744 and Jasiel the Mesobaite.4677

12

1 Now these428 are they that came935 to David1732 to Ziklag,6860 while he yet5750 kept6113 himself close6113 because6440 of Saul7586 the son1121 of Kish:7027 and they were among the mighty1368 men, helpers5826 of the war.4421

2 They were armed5401 with bows,7198 and could use3231 both the right3231 hand3231 and the left8041 in hurling stones68 and shooting arrows2671 out of a bow,7198 even of Saul's7586 brothers251 of Benjamin.1144

3 The chief7218 was Ahiezer,295 then Joash,3101 the sons1121 of Shemaah8094 the Gibeathite;1395 and Jeziel,3149 and Pelet,6404 the sons1121 of Azmaveth;5820 and Berachah,1294 and Jehu3058 the Antothite.6069

4 And Ismaiah3460 the Gibeonite,1393 a mighty1368 man among the thirty,7970 and over5921 the thirty;7970 and Jeremiah,3414 and Jahaziel,3166 and Johanan,3110 and Josabad3107 the Gederathite,1452

5 Eluzai,498 and Jerimoth,3406 and Bealiah,1183 and Shemariah,8114 and Shephatiah8203 the Haruphite,2741

6 Elkanah,511 and Jesiah,3449 and Azareel,5832 and Joezer,3134 and Jashobeam,3434 the Korhites,7145

7 And Joelah,3132 and Zebadiah,2069 the sons1121 of Jeroham3395 of Gedor.1446

8 And of the Gadites1425 there separated914 themselves to David1732 into the hold4679 to the wilderness4057 men582 of might,2428 and men of war6635 fit for the battle,4421 that could handle6186 shield6793 and buckler,7420 whose faces6440 were like the faces6440 of lions,738 and were as swift4116 as the roes6643 on the mountains;2022

9 Ezer5829 the first,7218 Obadiah5662 the second,8145 Eliab446 the third,7992

10 Mishmannah4925 the fourth,7243 Jeremiah3414 the fifth,2549

11 Attai6262 the sixth,8345 Eliel447 the seventh,7637

12 Johanan3110 the eighth,8066 Elzabad443 the ninth,8671

13 Jeremiah3414 the tenth,6224 Machbanai4344 the eleventh.6240

14 These428 were of the sons1121 of Gad,1410 captains7218 of the host:6635 one259 of the least6996 was over an hundred,3967 and the greatest1419 over a thousand.505

15 These428 1992 are they that went5674 over5674 Jordan3383 in the first7223 month,2320 when it had overflowed4390 all3605 his banks;1428 and they put7760 to flight1272 all3605 them of the valleys,6010 both toward the east,4217 and toward the west.4628

16 And there came935 of the children1121 of Benjamin1144 and Judah3063 to the hold4679 to David.1732

17 And David1732 went3318 out to meet6440 them, and answered6030 and said559 to them, If518 you be come935 peaceably7965 to me to help5826 me, my heart3824 shall be knit3162 to you: but if518 you be come to betray7411 me to my enemies,6862 seeing there is no3808 wrong2555 in my hands,3709 the God430 of our fathers1 look7200 thereon, and rebuke3198 it.

18 Then the spirit7307 came3847 on Amasai,6022 who was chief7218 of the captains,7991 and he said, Your are we, David,1732 and on your side, you son1121 of Jesse:3448 peace,7965 peace7965 be to you, and peace7965 be to your helpers;5826 for your God430 helps5826 you. Then David1732 received6901 them, and made5414 them captains7218 of the band.1416

19 And there fell5307 some of Manasseh4519 to David,1732 when he came935 with the Philistines6430 against5921 Saul7586 to battle:4421 but they helped5826 them not: for the lords5633 of the Philistines6430 on advisement6098 sent7971 him away, saying,559 He will fall5307 to his master113 Saul7586 to the jeopardy of our heads.7218

20 As he went3212 to Ziklag,6860 there fell5307 to him of Manasseh,4519 Adnah,5734 and Jozabad,3107 and Jediael,3043 and Michael,4317 and Jozabad,3107 and Elihu,453 and Zilthai,6769 captains7218 of the thousands505 that were of Manasseh.4519

21 And they helped5826 David1732 against5921 the band1416 of the rovers: for they were all3605 mighty1368 men of valor,2428 and were captains8269 in the host.6635

22 For at that time6256 day3117 by day3117 there came935 to David1732 to help5826 him, until5704 it was a great1419 host,4264 like the host4264 of God.430

23 And these428 are the numbers4557 of the bands7218 that were ready armed2502 to the war,6635 and came935 to David1732 to Hebron,2275 to turn5437 the kingdom4438 of Saul7586 to him, according to the word6310 of the LORD.3068

24 The children1121 of Judah3063 that bore5375 shield6793 and spear7420 were six8337 thousand505 and eight8083 hundred,3967 ready armed2502 to the war.6635

25 Of the children1121 of Simeon,8095 mighty1368 men of valor2428 for the war,6635 seven7651 thousand505 and one hundred.3967

26 Of the children1121 of Levi3878 four702 thousand505 and six8337 hundred.3967

27 And Jehoiada3111 was the leader5057 of the Aaronites,175 and with him were three7969 thousand505 and seven7651 hundred;3967

28 And Zadok,6659 a young5288 man mighty1368 of valor,2428 and of his father's1 house1004 twenty6242 and two8147 captains.8269

29 And of the children1121 of Benjamin,1144 the kindred251 of Saul,7586 three7969 thousand:505 for till now5704 2008 the greatest4768 part of them had kept8104 the ward4931 of the house1004 of Saul.7586

30 And of the children1121 of Ephraim669 twenty6242 thousand505 and eight8083 hundred,3967 mighty1368 men of valor,2428 famous8034 throughout the house1004 of their fathers.1

31 And of the half2677 tribe4294 of Manasseh4519 eighteen8083 6240 thousand,505 which834 were expressed5344 by name,8034 to come935 and make David1732 king.4427

32 And of the children1121 of Issachar,3485 which were men that had understanding998 of the times, to know3045 what4100 Israel3478 ought to do;6213 the heads7218 of them were two hundred;3967 and all3605 their brothers251 were at5921 their commandment.6310

33 Of Zebulun,2074 such as went3318 forth3318 to battle,6635 expert6186 in war,4421 with all3605 instruments3627 of war,4421 fifty2572 thousand,505 which could keep5737 rank:5737 they were not of double heart.3820

34 And of Naphtali5321 a thousand505 captains,8269 and with them with shield6793 and spear2595 thirty7970 and seven7651 thousand.505

35 And of the Danites1839 expert6186 in war4421 twenty6242 and eight8083 thousand505 and six8337 hundred.3967

36 And of Asher,836 such as went3318 forth3318 to battle,6635 expert6186 in war,4421 forty705 thousand.505

37 And on the other5676 side5676 of Jordan,3383 of the Reubenites,7206 and the Gadites,1425 and of the half2677 tribe7626 of Manasseh,4519 with all3605 manner of instruments3627 of war6635 for the battle,4421 an hundred3967 and twenty6242 thousand.505

38 All3605 these428 men582 of war,4421 that could keep5737 rank,4634 came935 with a perfect8003 heart3820 to Hebron,2275 to make David1732 king4427 over5921 all3605 Israel:3478 and all3605 the rest7611 also1571 of Israel3478 were of one259 heart3824 to make David1732 king.4427

39 And there8033 they were with David1732 three7969 days,3117 eating398 and drinking:8354 for their brothers251 had prepared3559 for them.

40 Moreover1571 they that were near7126 them, even to Issachar3485 and Zebulun2074 and Naphtali,5321 brought935 bread3899 on asses,2543 and on camels,1581 and on mules,6505 and on oxen,1241 and meat,3978 meal,7058 cakes1690 of figs, and bunches6778 of raisins,6778 and wine,3196 and oil,8081 and oxen,1241 and sheep6629 abundantly:7230 for there was joy8057 in Israel.3478

13

1 And David1732 consulted3289 with the captains8269 of thousands505 and hundreds,3967 and with every3605 leader.5057

2 And David1732 said559 to all3605 the congregation6951 of Israel,3478 If518 it seem good2895 to you, and that it be of the LORD3068 our God,430 let us send7971 abroad6555 to our brothers251 every where, that are left7604 in all3605 the land776 of Israel,3478 and with them also to the priests3548 and Levites3881 which are in their cities5892 and suburbs,4054 that they may gather6908 themselves to us:

3 And let us bring5437 again5437 the ark727 of our God430 to us: for we inquired1875 not at5921 it in the days3117 of Saul.7586

4 And all3605 the congregation6951 said559 that they would do6213 so:3651 for the thing1697 was right3477 in the eyes5869 of all3605 the people.5971

5 So David1732 gathered6950 all3605 Israel3478 together, from Shihor7883 of Egypt4714 even to the entering935 of Hemath,2574 to bring935 the ark727 of God430 from Kirjathjearim.7157

6 And David1732 went5927 up, and all3605 Israel,3478 to Baalah,1173 that is, to Kirjathjearim,7157 which834 belonged to Judah,3063 to bring5927 up there8033 the ark727 of God430 the LORD,3068 that dwells3427 between the cherubim,3742 whose834 name8034 is called7121 on it.

7 And they carried7392 the ark727 of God430 in a new2319 cart5699 out of the house1004 of Abinadab:41 and Uzza5798 and Ahio283 drove5090 the cart.5699

8 And David1732 and all3605 Israel3478 played7832 before6440 God430 with all3605 their might,5797 and with singing,7892 and with harps,3658 and with psalteries,5035 and with tambourines,8596 and with cymbals,4700 and with trumpets.2689

9 And when they came935 to the threshing floor1637 of Chidon,3592 Uzza5798 put7971 forth7971 his hand3027 to hold270 the ark;727 for the oxen1241 stumbled.8058

10 And the anger639 of the LORD3068 was kindled2734 against Uzza,5798 and he smote5221 him, because5921 834 he put7971 his hand3027 to the ark:727 and there8033 he died4191 before6440 God.430

11 And David1732 was displeased,2734 because3588 the LORD3068 had made5414 a breach6556 on Uzza:5798 why that place4725 is called7121 Perezuzza6560 to this2088 day.3117

12 And David1732 was afraid3372 of God430 that day,3117 saying,559 How1963 shall I bring935 the ark727 of God430 home to me?

13 So David1732 brought5493 not the ark727 home to himself to the city5892 of David,1732 but carried5186 it aside5186 into413 the house1004 of Obededom5654 the Gittite.1663

14 And the ark727 of God430 remained3427 with the family1004 of Obededom5654 in his house1004 three7969 months.2320 And the LORD3068 blessed1288 the house1004 of Obededom,5654 and all3605 that he had.

14

1 Now Hiram2438 king4428 of Tyre6865 sent7971 messengers4397 to David,1732 and timber6086 of cedars,730 with masons2796 7023 and carpenters,2796 6086 to build1129 him an house.1004

2 And David1732 perceived3045 that the LORD3068 had confirmed3559 him king4428 over5921 Israel,3478 for his kingdom4438 was lifted5375 up on high,4605 because5668 of his people5971 Israel.3478

3 And David1732 took3947 more5750 wives802 at Jerusalem:3389 and David1732 begat3205 more5750 sons1121 and daughters.1323

4 Now these428 are the names8034 of his children3205 which834 he had1961 in Jerusalem;3389 Shammua,8051 and Shobab,7727 Nathan,5416 and Solomon,8010

5 And Ibhar,2984 and Elishua,474 and Elpalet,467

6 And Nogah,5052 and Nepheg,5298 and Japhia,3309

7 And Elishama,476 and Beeliada,1182 and Eliphalet.467

8 And when the Philistines6430 heard8085 that David1732 was anointed4886 king4428 over5921 all3605 Israel,3478 all3605 the Philistines6430 went5927 up to seek1245 David.1732 And David1732 heard8085 of it, and went3318 out against6640 them.

9 And the Philistines6430 came935 and spread6584 themselves in the valley6010 of Rephaim.7497

10 And David1732 inquired7592 of God,430 saying,559 Shall I go5927 up against5921 the Philistines?6430 And will you deliver5414 them into my hand?3027 And the LORD3068 said559 to him, Go5927 up; for I will deliver5414 them into your hand.3027

11 So they came5927 up to Baalperazim;1188 and David1732 smote5221 them there.8033 Then David1732 said,559 God430 has broken6555 in on my enemies341 by my hand3027 like the breaking6556 forth7971 of waters:4325 therefore5921 3651 they called7121 the name8034 of that place4725 Baalperazim.1188

12 And when they had left5800 their gods430 there,8033 David1732 gave a commandment,559 and they were burned8313 with fire.784

13 And the Philistines6430 yet5750 again3254 spread6584 themselves abroad6584 in the valley.6010

14 Therefore David1732 inquired7592 again5750 of God;430 and God430 said559 to him, Go5927 not up after310 them; turn5437 away from them, and come935 on them over4136 against4136 the mulberry1057 trees.

15 And it shall be, when you shall hear8085 a sound6963 of going6807 in the tops7218 of the mulberry1057 trees, that then227 you shall go3318 out to battle:4421 for God430 is gone3318 forth3318 before6440 you to smite5221 the host4264 of the Philistines.6430

16 David1732 therefore did6213 as God430 commanded6680 him: and they smote5221 the host4264 of the Philistines6430 from Gibeon1391 even to Gazer.1507

17 And the fame8034 of David1732 went3318 out into all3605 lands;776 and the LORD3068 brought5414 the fear6343 of him on all3605 nations.1471

15

1 And David made6213 him houses1004 in the city5892 of David,1732 and prepared3559 a place4725 for the ark727 of God,430 and pitched5186 for it a tent.168

2 Then227 David1732 said,559 None3808 ought to carry5375 the ark727 of God430 but the Levites:3881 for them has the LORD3068 chosen977 to carry5375 the ark727 of God,430 and to minister8334 to him for ever.5769

3 And David1732 gathered6950 all3605 Israel3478 together to Jerusalem,3389 to bring5927 up the ark727 of the LORD3068 to his place,4725 which834 he had prepared3559 for it.

4 And David1732 assembled622 the children1121 of Aaron,175 and the Levites:3881

5 Of the sons1121 of Kohath;6955 Uriel222 the chief,8269 and his brothers251 an hundred3967 and twenty:6242

6 Of the sons1121 of Merari;4847 Asaiah6222 the chief,8269 and his brothers251 two hundred3967 and twenty:6242

7 Of the sons1121 of Gershom;1648 Joel3100 the chief 8269and his brothers251 an hundred3967 and thirty:7970

8 Of the sons1121 of Elizaphan;469 Shemaiah8098 the chief,8269 and his brothers251 two hundred:3967

9 Of the sons1121 of Hebron;2275 Eliel447 the chief,8269 and his brothers251 fourscore:8084

10 Of the sons1121 of Uzziel;5816 Amminadab5992 the chief,8269 and his brothers251 an hundred3967 and twelve.8147 6240

11 And David1732 called7121 for Zadok6659 and Abiathar54 the priests,3548 and for the Levites,3881 for Uriel,222 Asaiah,6222 and Joel,3100 Shemaiah,8098 and Eliel,447 and Amminadab,5992

12 And said559 to them, You are the chief7218 of the fathers1 of the Levites:3881 sanctify6942 yourselves, both you and your brothers,251 that you may bring5927 up the ark727 of the LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 to the place that I have prepared3559 for it.

13 For because3588 you did it not at the first,7223 the LORD3068 our God430 made a breach6555 on us, for that we sought1875 him not after the due order.4941

14 So the priests3548 and the Levites3881 sanctified6942 themselves to bring5927 up the ark727 of the LORD3068 God430 of Israel.3478

15 And the children1121 of the Levites3881 bore5375 the ark727 of God430 on their shoulders3802 with the staves4133 thereon,5921 as Moses4872 commanded6680 according to the word1697 of the LORD.3068

16 And David1732 spoke559 to the chief8269 of the Levites3881 to appoint5975 their brothers251 to be the singers7891 with instruments3627 of music,7892 psalteries5035 and harps3658 and cymbals,4700 sounding,8085 by lifting7311 up the voice6963 with joy.8057

17 So the Levites3881 appointed5975 Heman1968 the son1121 of Joel;3100 and of his brothers,251 Asaph623 the son1121 of Berechiah;1296 and of the sons1121 of Merari4847 their brothers,251 Ethan387 the son1121 of Kushaiah;6984

18 And with them their brothers251 of the second4932 degree, Zechariah,2148 Ben,1122 and Jaaziel,3268 and Shemiramoth,8070 and Jehiel,3171 and Unni,6042 Eliab,446 and Benaiah,1141 and Maaseiah,4641 and Mattithiah,4993 and Elipheleh,465 and Mikneiah,4737 and Obededom,5654 and Jeiel,3273 the porters.7778

19 So the singers,7891 Heman,1968 Asaph,623 and Ethan,387 were appointed to sound8085 with cymbals4700 of brass;5178

20 And Zechariah,2148 and Aziel,5815 and Shemiramoth,8070 and Jehiel,3171 and Unni,6042 and Eliab,446 and Maaseiah,4641 and Benaiah,1141 with psalteries5035 on5921 Alamoth;5961

21 And Mattithiah,4993 and Elipheleh,465 and Mikneiah,4737 and Obededom,5654 and Jeiel,3273 and Azaziah,5812 with harps3658 on5921 the Sheminith8067 to excel.5329

22 And Chenaniah,3663 chief8269 of the Levites,3881 was for song:4853 he instructed3256 about the song,4853 because3588 he was skillful.995

23 And Berechiah1296 and Elkanah511 were doorkeepers7778 for the ark.727

24 And Shebaniah,7645 and Jehoshaphat,3146 and Nethaneel,5417 and Amasai,6022 and Zechariah,2148 and Benaiah,1141 and Eliezer,461 the priests,3548 did blow2690 with the trumpets2689 before6440 the ark727 of God:430 and Obededom5654 and Jehiah3174 were doorkeepers7778 for the ark.727

25 So David,1732 and the elders2205 of Israel,3478 and the captains8269 over thousands,505 went1980 to bring5927 up the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 out of the house1004 of Obededom5654 with joy.8057

26 And it came1961 to pass, when God430 helped5826 the Levites3881 that bore5375 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD,3068 that they offered2076 seven7651 bullocks6499 and seven7651 rams.352

27 And David1732 was clothed3736 with a robe4598 of fine linen,948 and all3605 the Levites3881 that bore5375 the ark,727 and the singers,7891 and Chenaniah3663 the master8269 of the song4853 with the singers:7891 David1732 also had on him an ephod646 of linen.906

28 Thus all3605 Israel3478 brought5927 up the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 with shouting,8643 and with sound6963 of the cornet,7782 and with trumpets,2689 and with cymbals,4700 making a noise8085 with psalteries5035 and harps.3658

29 And it came1961 to pass, as the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 came935 to the city5892 of David,1732 that Michal,4324 the daughter1323 of Saul7586 looking8259 out at1157 a window2474 saw7200 king4428 David1732 dancing7540 and playing:7832 and she despised959 him in her heart.3820

16

1 So they brought935 the ark727 of God,430 and set3322 it in the middle8432 of the tent168 that David1732 had pitched5186 for it: and they offered7126 burnt5930 sacrifices and peace8002 offerings before6440 God.430

2 And when David1732 had made an end3615 of offering5927 the burnt5930 offerings and the peace8002 offerings, he blessed1288 the people5971 in the name8034 of the LORD.3068

3 And he dealt2505 to every376 one376 of Israel,3478 both man376 and woman,802 to every376 one376 a loaf3603 of bread,3899 and a good piece829 of flesh,829 and a flagon809 of wine.

4 And he appointed5414 certain of the Levites3881 to minister8334 before6440 the ark727 of the LORD,3068 and to record,2142 and to thank3034 and praise1984 the LORD3068 God430 of Israel:3478

5 Asaph623 the chief,7218 and next4932 to him Zechariah,2148 Jeiel,3273 and Shemiramoth,8070 and Jehiel,3171 and Mattithiah,4993 and Eliab,446 and Benaiah,1141 and Obededom:5654 and Jeiel3273 with psalteries3627 and with harps;3658 but Asaph623 made a sound8085 with cymbals;4700

6 Benaiah1141 also and Jahaziel3166 the priests3548 with trumpets2689 continually8548 before6440 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of God.430

7 Then227 on that day3117 David1732 delivered5414 first7218 this psalm to thank3034 the LORD3068 into the hand3027 of Asaph623 and his brothers.251

8 Give thanks3034 to the LORD,3068 call7121 on his name,8034 make known3045 his deeds5949 among the people.5971

9 Sing7891 to him, sing psalms2167 to him, talk7878 you of all3605 his wondrous6381 works.

10 Glory1984 you in his holy6944 name:8034 let the heart3820 of them rejoice8055 that seek1245 the LORD.3068

11 Seek1875 the LORD3068 and his strength,5797 seek1245 his face6440 continually.8548

12 Remember2142 his marvelous6381 works that he has done,6213 his wonders,4159 and the judgments4941 of his mouth;6310

13 O you seed2233 of Israel3478 his servant,5650 you children1121 of Jacob,3290 his chosen972 ones.

14 He is the LORD3068 our God;430 his judgments4941 are in all3605 the earth.776

15 Be you mindful2142 always5769 of his covenant;1285 the word1697 which834 he commanded6680 to a thousand505 generations;1755

16 Even of the covenant1285 which834 he made3772 with Abraham,85 and of his oath7621 to Isaac;3327

17 And has confirmed5975 the same to Jacob3290 for a law,2706 and to Israel3478 for an everlasting5769 covenant,1285

18 Saying,559 To you will I give5414 the land776 of Canaan,3667 the lot2256 of your inheritance;5159

19 When you were but few,4962 even a few,4592 and strangers1481 in it.

20 And when they went1980 from nation1471 to nation,1471 and from one kingdom4467 to another312 people;5971

21 He suffered3240 no3808 man376 to do them wrong:6231 yes, he reproved3198 kings4428 for their sakes,5921

22 Saying, Touch5060 not my anointed,4899 and do my prophets5030 no408 harm.7489

23 Sing7891 to the LORD,3068 all3605 the earth;776 show1319 forth1319 from day3117 to day3117 his salvation.3444

24 Declare5608 his glory3519 among the heathen;1471 his marvelous6381 works among all3605 nations.5971

25 For great1419 is the LORD,3068 and greatly3966 to be praised:1984 he also is to be feared3372 above5921 all3605 gods.430

26 For all3605 the gods430 of the people5971 are idols:457 but the LORD3068 made6213 the heavens.8064

27 Glory1935 and honor1926 are in his presence;6440 strength5797 and gladness2304 are in his place.4725

28 Give3051 to the LORD,3068 you kindreds4940 of the people,5971 give3051 to the LORD3068 glory3519 and strength.5797

29 Give3051 to the LORD3068 the glory3519 due to his name:8034 bring5375 an offering,4503 and come935 before6440 him: worship7812 the LORD3068 in the beauty1927 of holiness.6944

30 Fear2342 before6440 him, all3605 the earth:776 the world8398 also637 shall be stable,3559 that it be not moved.4131

31 Let the heavens8064 be glad,8056 and let the earth776 rejoice:1523 and let men say559 among the nations,1471 The LORD3068 reigns.4427

32 Let the sea3220 roar,7481 and the fullness4393 thereof: let the fields7704 rejoice,5970 and all3605 that is therein.

33 Then227 shall the trees6086 of the wood3293 sing7442 out at the presence6440 of the LORD,3068 because3588 he comes935 to judge8199 the earth.776

34 O give thanks3034 to the LORD;3068 for he is good;2896 for his mercy2617 endures for ever.5769

35 And say559 you, Save3467 us, O God430 of our salvation,3468 and gather6908 us together, and deliver5337 us from the heathen,1471 that we may give thanks3034 to your holy6944 name,8034 and glory7623 in your praise.8416

36 Blessed1288 be the LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 for ever5769 and ever5704 5769. And all3605 the people5971 said,559 Amen,543 and praised1984 the LORD.3068

37 So he left5800 there8033 before6440 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 Asaph623 and his brothers,251 to minister8334 before6440 the ark727 continually,8548 as every day's3117 work1697 required:3117

38 And Obededom5654 with their brothers,251 three score8346 and eight;8083 Obededom5654 also the son1121 of Jeduthun3038 and Hosah2621 to be porters:7778

39 And Zadok6659 the priest,3548 and his brothers251 the priests,3548 before6440 the tabernacle4908 of the LORD3068 in the high1116 place that was at Gibeon,1391

40 To offer5927 burnt5930 offerings to the LORD3068 on the altar4196 of the burnt5930 offering continually8548 morning1242 and evening,6153 and to do according to all3605 that is written3789 in the law8451 of the LORD,3068 which834 he commanded6680 Israel;3478

41 And with them Heman1968 and Jeduthun,3038 and the rest7605 that were chosen,1305 who834 were expressed5344 by name,8034 to give thanks3034 to the LORD,3068 because3588 his mercy2617 endures for ever;5769

42 And with them Heman1968 and Jeduthun3038 with trumpets2689 and cymbals4700 for those that should make a sound,8085 and with musical7892 instruments3627 of God.430 And the sons1121 of Jeduthun3038 were porters.8179

43 And all3605 the people5971 departed3212 every man376 to his house:1004 and David1732 returned5437 to bless1288 his house.1004

17

1 Now it came1961 to pass, as David1732 sat3427 in his house,1004 that David1732 said559 to Nathan5416 the prophet,5030 See,2009 I dwell3427 in an house1004 of cedars,730 but the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 remains under8478 curtains.3407

2 Then Nathan5416 said559 to David,1732 Do6213 all3605 that is in your heart;3824 for God430 is with you.

3 And it came1961 to pass the same1931 night,3915 that the word1697 of God430 came1961 to Nathan,5416 saying,559

4 Go3212 and tell559 David1732 my servant,5650 Thus3541 said559 the LORD,3068 You shall not build1129 me an house1004 to dwell3427 in:

5 For I have not dwelled3427 in an house1004 since4480 the day3117 that I brought5927 up Israel3478 to this2088 day;3117 but have gone1961 from tent168 to tent,168 and from one tabernacle4908 to another.

6 Wherever3605 834 I have walked1980 with all3605 Israel,3478 spoke1696 I a word1697 to any259 of the judges8199 of Israel,3478 whom834 I commanded6680 to feed7462 my people,5971 saying,559 Why4100 have you not built1129 me an house1004 of cedars?730

7 Now6258 therefore thus3541 shall you say559 to my servant5650 David,1732 Thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 I took3947 you from the sheepcote,5116 even from following310 the sheep,6629 that you should be ruler5057 over5921 my people5971 Israel:3478

8 And I have been1961 with you wherever3605 834 you have walked, and have cut3772 off all3605 your enemies341 from before6440 you, and have made6213 you a name8034 like the name8034 of the great1419 men that are in the earth.776

9 Also I will ordain7760 a place4725 for my people5971 Israel,3478 and will plant5193 them, and they shall dwell7931 in their place,8478 and shall be moved7264 no3808 more;5750 neither3808 shall the children1121 of wickedness5766 waste1086 them any more,3254 as at the beginning,7223

10 And since the time3117 that I commanded6680 judges8199 to be over5921 my people5971 Israel.3478 Moreover I will subdue3665 all3605 your enemies.341 Furthermore I tell5046 you that the LORD3068 will build1129 you an house.1004

11 And it shall come1961 to pass, when3588 your days3117 be expired4390 that you must go3212 to be with your fathers,1 that I will raise6965 up your seed2233 after310 you, which834 shall be of your sons;1121 and I will establish3559 his kingdom.4438

12 He shall build1129 me an house,1004 and I will establish3559 his throne3678 for ever.5769

13 I will be his father,25 and he shall be my son:1121 and I will not take5493 my mercy2617 away5493 from him, as I took5493 it from him that was before6440 you:

14 But I will settle5975 him in my house1004 and in my kingdom4438 for ever:5769 and his throne3678 shall be established3559 for ever more.5769

15 According to all3605 these428 words,1697 and according to all3605 this2088 vision,2377 so3651 did Nathan5416 speak1696 to David.1732

16 And David1732 the king4428 came935 and sat3427 before6440 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Who4310 am I, O LORD3068 God,430 and what4310 is my house,1004 that you have brought935 me till now?1988

17 And yet this2063 was a small6994 thing in your eyes,5869 O God;430 for you have also spoken1696 of your servant's5650 house1004 for a great7350 while to come, and have regarded7200 me according to the estate8448 of a man120 of high4608 degree, O LORD3068 God.430

18 What4100 can David1732 speak more3254 5750 to you for the honor3519 of your servant?5650 for you know3045 your servant.5650

19 O LORD,3068 for your servant's5650 sake,5668 and according to your own heart,3820 have you done6213 all3605 this2063 greatness,1420 in making known3045 all3605 these great1420 things.

20 O LORD,3068 there is none369 like3644 you, neither369 is there any God430 beside2108 you, according to all3605 that we have heard8085 with our ears.241

21 And what4310 one259 nation1471 in the earth776 is like your people5971 Israel,3478 whom834 God430 went1980 to redeem6299 to be his own people,5971 to make7760 you a name8034 of greatness1420 and terribleness,3372 by driving1644 out nations1471 from before6440 your people 5971whom834 you have redeemed6299 out of Egypt?4714

22 For your people5971 Israel3478 did you make5414 your own people5971 for ever;5769 and you, LORD,3068 became1961 their God.430

23 Therefore now,6258 LORD,3068 let the thing1697 that you have spoken1696 concerning5921 your servant5650 and concerning5921 his house1004 be established539 for ever,5769 and do6213 as you have said.1696

24 Let it even be established,539 that your name8034 may be magnified1431 for ever,5769 saying,559 The LORD3068 of hosts6635 is the God430 of Israel,3478 even a God430 to Israel:3478 and let the house1004 of David1732 your servant5650 be established3559 before6440 you.

25 For you, O my God,430 have told1540 your servant5650 that you will build1129 him an house:1004 therefore5921 3651 your servant5650 has found4672 in his heart3820 to pray6419 before6440 you.

26 And now,6258 LORD,3068 you are God,430 and have promised1696 this2063 goodness2896 to your servant:5650

27 Now6258 therefore let it please2974 you to bless1288 the house1004 of your servant,5650 that it may be before6440 you for ever:5769 for you bless,1288 O LORD,3068 and it shall be blessed1288 for ever.5769

18

1 Now after310 this3651 it came1961 to pass, that David1732 smote5221 the Philistines,6430 and subdued3665 them, and took3947 Gath1661 and her towns1323 out of the hand3027 of the Philistines.6430

2 And he smote5221 Moab;4124 and the Moabites4124 became1961 David's1732 servants,5650 and brought5375 gifts.4503

3 And David1732 smote5221 Hadarezer1928 king4428 of Zobah6678 to Hamath,2574 as he went3212 to establish5324 his dominion3027 by the river5104 Euphrates.6578

4 And David1732 took3920 from him a thousand505 chariots,7393 and seven7651 thousand505 horsemen,6571 and twenty6242 thousand505 footmen:376 7273 David1732 also hamstrung6131 all3605 the chariot7393 horses,5483 but reserved3498 of them an hundred3967 chariots.7393

5 And when the Syrians758 of Damascus1834 came935 to help5826 Hadarezer1928 king4428 of Zobah,6678 David1732 slew5221 of the Syrians758 two8147 and twenty6242 thousand505 men.376

6 Then David1732 put7760 garrisons in Syriadamascus;758 1834 and the Syrians758 became1961 David's1732 servants,5650 and brought5375 gifts.4503 Thus the LORD3068 preserved3467 David1732 wherever3605 834 he went.1980

7 And David1732 took3947 the shields7982 of gold2091 that were on5921 the servants5650 of Hadarezer,1928 and brought935 them to Jerusalem.3389

8 Likewise from Tibhath,2880 and from Chun,3560 cities5892 of Hadarezer,1928 brought3947 David1732 very3966 much7227 brass,5178 with which Solomon8010 made6213 the brazen5178 sea,3220 and the pillars,5982 and the vessels3627 of brass.5178

9 Now when Tou8583 king4428 of Hamath2574 heard8085 how3588 David1732 had smitten5221 all3605 the host2428 of Hadarezer1928 king4428 of Zobah;6678

10 He sent7971 Hadoram1913 his son1121 to king4428 David,1732 to inquire7592 of his welfare,7965 and to congratulate1288 him, because5921 834 he had fought3898 against Hadarezer,1928 and smitten5221 him; (for Hadarezer1928 had1961 war4421 with Tou;8583) and with him all3605 manner of vessels3627 of gold2091 and silver3701 and brass.5178

11 Them also1571 king4428 David1732 dedicated6942 to the LORD,3068 with the silver3701 and the gold2091 that he brought5375 from all3605 these nations;1471 from Edom,123 and from Moab,4124 and from the children1121 of Ammon,5983 and from the Philistines,6430 and from Amalek.6002

12 Moreover Abishai52 the son1121 of Zeruiah6870 slew5221 of the Edomites130 in the valley1516 of salt4417 eighteen8083 6240 thousand.505

13 And he put7760 garrisons5333 in Edom;123 and all3605 the Edomites130 became1961 David's1732 servants.5650 Thus the LORD3068 preserved3467 David1732 wherever3605 834 he went.1980

14 So David1732 reigned4427 over5921 all3605 Israel,3478 and executed6213 judgment4941 and justice6666 among all3605 his people.5971

15 And Joab3097 the son1121 of Zeruiah6870 was over5921 the host;6635 and Jehoshaphat3092 the son1121 of Ahilud,286 recorder.2142

16 And Zadok6659 the son1121 of Ahitub,285 and Abimelech40 the son1121 of Abiathar,54 were the priests;3548 and Shavsha7798 was scribe;5608

17 And Benaiah1141 the son1121 of Jehoiada3111 was over5921 the Cherethites3774 and the Pelethites;6432 and the sons1121 of David1732 were chief7223 about the king.4428

19

1 Now it came1961 to pass after310 this,3651 that Nahash5176 the king4428 of the children1121 of Ammon5983 died,4191 and his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478

2 And David1732 said,559 I will show6213 kindness2617 to Hanun2586 the son1121 of Nahash,5176 because3588 his father25 showed6213 kindness2617 to me. And David1732 sent7971 messengers4397 to comfort5162 him concerning5921 his father.25 So the servants5650 of David1732 came935 into413 the land776 of the children1121 of Ammon5983 to Hanun,2586 to comfort5162 him.

3 But the princes8269 of the children1121 of Ammon5983 said559 to Hanun,2586 Think5869 you that David1732 does honor3513 your father,25 that he has sent7971 comforters5162 to you? are not his servants5650 come935 to you for to search,2713 and to overthrow,2015 and to spy7200 out the land?776

4 Why Hanun2586 took3947 David's1732 servants,5650 and shaved1548 them, and cut3772 off their garments4063 in the middle2677 hard by their buttocks,4667 and sent7971 them away.

5 Then there went3212 certain, and told5046 David1732 how the men582 were served.5921 And he sent7971 to meet7125 them: for the men582 were greatly3966 ashamed.3637 And the king4428 said,559 Tarry3427 at Jericho3405 until5704 your beards2206 be grown,6779 and then return.7725

6 And when the children1121 of Ammon5983 saw7200 that they had made themselves odious887 to David,1732 Hanun2586 and the children1121 of Ammon5983 sent7971 a thousand505 talents3603 of silver3701 to hire7936 them chariots7393 and horsemen6571 out of Mesopotamia,763 and out of Syriamaachah,758 and out of Zobah.6678

7 So they hired7936 thirty7970 and two8147 thousand505 chariots,7393 and the king4428 of Maachah4601 and his people;5971 who came935 and pitched2583 before6440 Medeba.4311 And the children1121 of Ammon5983 gathered622 themselves together from their cities,5892 and came935 to battle.4421

8 And when David1732 heard8085 of it, he sent7971 Joab,3097 and all3605 the host6635 of the mighty1368 men.

9 And the children1121 of Ammon5983 came3318 out, and put the battle4421 in array6186 before the gate6607 of the city:5892 and the kings4428 that were come935 were by themselves905 in the field.7704

10 Now when Joab3097 saw7200 that the battle4421 was set against413 him before6440 and behind,268 he chose977 out of all3605 the choice970 of Israel,3478 and put them in array6186 against7125 the Syrians.758

11 And the rest3499 of the people5971 he delivered5414 to the hand3027 of Abishai52 his brother,251 and they set themselves in array6186 against7125 the children1121 of Ammon.5983

12 And he said,559 If518 the Syrians758 be too strong2388 for me, then you shall help8668 me: but if518 the children1121 of Ammon5983 be too strong2388 for you, then I will help3467 you.

13 Be of good courage,2388 and let us behave2388 ourselves valiantly2388 for our people,5971 and for the cities5892 of our God:430 and let the LORD3068 do6213 that which is good2896 in his sight.5869

14 So Joab3097 and the people5971 that were with him drew near5066 before6440 the Syrians758 to the battle;4421 and they fled5127 before6440 him.

15 And when the children1121 of Ammon5983 saw7200 that the Syrians758 were fled,5127 they likewise1571 fled5127 before6440 Abishai52 his brother,251 and entered935 into the city.5892 Then Joab3097 came935 to Jerusalem.3389

16 And when the Syrians758 saw7200 that they were put to the worse5062 before6440 Israel,3478 they sent7971 messengers,4397 and drew3318 forth3318 the Syrians758 that were beyond5676 the river:5104 and Shophach7780 the captain8269 of the host6635 of Hadarezer1928 went before6440 them.

17 And it was told5046 David;1732 and he gathered622 all3605 Israel,3478 and passed5674 over5674 Jordan,3383 and came935 on them, and set the battle in array6186 against413 them. So when David1732 had put the battle4421 in array6186 against7125 the Syrians,758 they fought3898 with him.

18 But the Syrians758 fled5127 before6440 Israel;3478 and David1732 slew2026 of the Syrians758 seven7651 thousand505 men which fought in chariots,7393 and forty705 thousand505 footmen,376 7273 and killed4191 Shophach7780 the captain8269 of the host.6635

19 And when the servants5650 of Hadarezer1928 saw7200 that they were put to the worse5062 before6440 Israel,3478 they made peace7999 with David,1732 and became5647 his servants:5647 neither3808 would14 the Syrians758 help3467 the children1121 of Ammon5983 any more.5750

20

1 And it came1961 to pass, that after6256 the year8141 was expired,8666 at the time6256 that kings4428 go3318 out to battle, Joab3097 led5090 forth the power2428 of the army,6635 and wasted7843 the country776 of the children1121 of Ammon,5983 and came935 and besieged6696 Rabbah.7237 But David1732 tarried3427 at Jerusalem.3389 And Joab3097 smote5221 Rabbah,7237 and destroyed2040 it.

2 And David1732 took3947 the crown5850 of their king4428 from off5921 his head,7218 and found4672 it to weigh4948 a talent3603 of gold,2091 and there were precious3368 stones68 in it; and it was set on David's1732 head:7218 and he brought3318 also exceeding3966 much7235 spoil7998 out of the city.5892

3 And he brought3318 out the people5971 that were in it, and cut7787 them with saws,4050 and with harrows2757 of iron,1270 and with axes.4050 Even so3651 dealt6213 David1732 with all3605 the cities5892 of the children1121 of Ammon.5983 And David1732 and all3605 the people5971 returned7725 to Jerusalem.3389

4 And it came1961 to pass after310 this,3651 that there arose5975 war4421 at Gezer1507 with the Philistines;6430 at which227 time227 Sibbechai5444 the Hushathite2843 slew5221 Sippai,5598 that was of the children3211 of the giant:7497 and they were subdued.3665

5 And there was war4421 again5750 with the Philistines;6430 and Elhanan445 the son1121 of Jair3265 slew5221 Lahmi3902 the brother251 of Goliath1555 the Gittite,1663 whose spear2595 staff6086 was like a weaver's707 beam.4500

6 And yet5750 again5750 there was war4421 at Gath,1661 where was a man376 of great stature,4060 whose fingers676 and toes676 were four702 and twenty,6242 six8337 on each hand, and six8337 on each foot and he also1571 was the son3205 of the giant.7497

7 But when he defied2778 Israel,3478 Jonathan3083 the son1121 of Shimea8092 David's1732 brother251 slew5221 him.

8 These411 were born3205 to the giant7497 in Gath;1661 and they fell5307 by the hand3027 of David,1732 and by the hand3027 of his servants.5650

21

1 And Satan7854 stood5975 up against5921 Israel,3478 and provoked5496 David1732 to number4487 Israel.3478

2 And David1732 said559 to Joab3097 and to the rulers8269 of the people,5971 Go,3212 number5608 Israel3478 from Beersheba884 even to Dan;1835 and bring935 the number4557 of them to me, that I may know3045 it.

3 And Joab3097 answered,559 The LORD3068 make his people5971 an hundred3967 times6471 so1992 many more3254 as they be: but, my lord113 the king,4428 are they not all3605 my lord's113 servants?5650 why4100 then does my lord113 require1245 this2063 thing? why will he be a cause of trespass819 to Israel?3478

4 Nevertheless the king's4428 word1697 prevailed2388 against5921 Joab.3097 Why Joab3097 departed,3318 and went1980 throughout all3605 Israel,3478 and came935 to Jerusalem.3389

5 And Joab3097 gave5414 the sum4557 of the number4662 of the people5971 to David.1732 And all3605 they of Israel3478 were a thousand505 thousand505 and an hundred3967 thousand505 men376 that drew8025 sword:2719 and Judah3063 was four702 hundred3967 three score7657 and ten thousand505 men376 that drew8025 sword.2719

6 But Levi3878 and Benjamin1144 counted6485 he not among8432 them: for the king's4428 word1697 was abominable8581 to Joab.3097

7 And God430 was displeased3415 5869 with this2088 thing;1697 therefore he smote5221 Israel.3478

8 And David1732 said559 to God,430 I have sinned2398 greatly,3966 because834 I have done6213 this2088 thing:1697 but now,6258 I beseech4994 you, do5674 away5674 the iniquity5771 of your servant;5650 for I have done very3966 foolishly.5528

9 And the LORD3068 spoke1696 to Gad,1410 David's1732 seer,2374 saying,559

10 Go3212 and tell1696 David,1732 saying,559 Thus3541 said559 the LORD,3068 I offer5186 you three7969 things: choose977 you one259 of them, that I may do6213 it to you.

11 So Gad1410 came935 to David,1732 and said559 to him, Thus3541 said559 the LORD,3068 Choose6901 you

12 Either518 three7969 years'8141 famine;7458 or three7969 months2320 to be destroyed5595 before6440 your foes,6862 while that the sword2719 of your enemies341 overtakes5381 you; or else518 three7969 days3117 the sword2719 of the LORD,3068 even the pestilence,1698 in the land,776 and the angel4397 of the LORD3068 destroying7843 throughout all3605 the coasts1366 of Israel.3478 Now6258 therefore advise7200 yourself what4100 word1697 I shall bring7725 again7725 to him that sent7971 me.

13 And David1732 said559 to Gad,1410 I am in a great3966 strait:6887 let me fall5307 now4994 into the hand3027 of the LORD;3068 for very3966 great7227 are his mercies:7356 but let me not fall5307 into the hand3027 of man.120

14 So the LORD3068 sent5414 pestilence1698 on Israel:3478 and there fell5307 of Israel3478 seventy7657 thousand505 men.376

15 And God430 sent7971 an angel4397 to Jerusalem3389 to destroy7843 it: and as he was destroying,7843 the LORD3068 beheld,7200 and he repented5162 him of the evil,7451 and said559 to the angel4397 that destroyed,7843 It is enough,7227 stay7503 now6258 your hand.3027 And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 stood5975 by the threshing floor1637 of Ornan771 the Jebusite.2983

16 And David1732 lifted5375 up his eyes,5869 and saw7200 the angel4397 of the LORD3068 stand5975 between996 the earth776 and the heaven,8064 having a drawn8025 sword2719 in his hand3027 stretched5186 out over5921 Jerusalem.3389 Then David1732 and the elders2205 of Israel, who were clothed3680 in sackcloth,8242 fell5307 on their faces.6440

17 And David1732 said559 to God,430 Is it not I that commanded559 the people5971 to be numbered?4487 even I it is that have sinned2398 and done evil7489 indeed; but as for these428 sheep,6629 what have they done?6213 let your hand,3027 I pray4994 you, O LORD3068 my God,430 be on me, and on my father's1 house;1004 but not on your people,5971 that they should be plagued.4046

18 Then the angel4397 of the LORD3068 commanded559 Gad1410 to say559 to David,1732 that David1732 should go5927 up, and set6965 up an altar4196 to the LORD3068 in the threshing floor1637 of Ornan771 the Jebusite.2983

19 And David1732 went5927 up at the saying1697 of Gad,1410 which834 he spoke1696 in the name8034 of the LORD.3068

20 And Ornan771 turned7725 back,7725 and saw7200 the angel;4397 and his four702 sons1121 with him hid2244 themselves. Now Ornan771 was threshing1758 wheat.2406

21 And as David1732 came935 to Ornan,771 Ornan771 looked5027 and saw7200 David,1732 and went3318 out of the threshing floor,1637 and bowed7812 himself to David1732 with his face639 to the ground.776

22 Then David1732 said559 to Ornan,771 Grant5414 me the place4725 of this threshing floor,1637 that I may build1129 an altar4196 therein to the LORD:3068 you shall grant5414 it me for the full4392 price:3701 that the plague4046 may be stayed6113 from the people.5971

23 And Ornan771 said559 to David,1732 Take3947 it to you, and let my lord113 the king4428 do6213 that which is good in his eyes:5869 see,7200 I give5414 you the oxen1241 also for burnt5930 offerings, and the threshing4173 instruments for wood,6086 and the wheat2406 for the meat offering;4503 I give5414 it all.3605

24 And king4428 David1732 said559 to Ornan,771 No;3808 but I will truly7069 buy7069 it for the full4392 price:3701 for I will not take5375 that which834 is your for the LORD,3068 nor offer5927 burnt5930 offerings without2600 cost.2600

25 So David1732 gave5414 to Ornan771 for the place4725 six8337 hundred3967 shekels8255 of gold2091 by weight.4948

26 And David1732 built1129 there8033 an altar4196 to the LORD,3068 and offered5927 burnt5930 offerings and peace8002 offerings, and called7121 on the LORD;3068 and he answered6030 him from heaven8064 by fire784 on the altar4196 of burnt5930 offering.

27 And the LORD3068 commanded559 the angel;4397 and he put7725 up his sword2719 again7725 into413 the sheath5084 thereof.

28 At that time6256 when David1732 saw7200 that the LORD3068 had answered6030 him in the threshing floor1637 of Ornan771 the Jebusite,2983 then he sacrificed2076 there.8033

29 For the tabernacle4908 of the LORD,3068 which834 Moses4872 made6213 in the wilderness,4057 and the altar4196 of the burnt5930 offering, were at that season6256 in the high1116 place at Gibeon.1391

30 But David1732 could3201 not go3212 before6440 it to inquire1875 of God:430 for he was afraid1204 because6440 of the sword2719 of the angel4397 of the LORD.3068

22

1 Then David1732 said,559 This2088 is the house1004 of the LORD3068 God,430 and this2088 is the altar4196 of the burnt5930 offering for Israel.3478

2 And David1732 commanded559 to gather3664 together the strangers1616 that were in the land776 of Israel;3478 and he set5975 masons2672 to hew2672 worked1496 stones68 to build1129 the house1004 of God.430

3 And David1732 prepared3559 iron1270 in abundance7230 for the nails4548 for the doors1817 of the gates,8179 and for the joinings;4226 and brass5178 in abundance7230 without weight;4948

4 Also cedar730 trees6086 in abundance:369 4557 for the Zidonians6722 and they of Tyre6876 brought935 much7230 cedar730 wood6086 to David.1732

5 And David1732 said,559 Solomon8010 my son1121 is young5288 and tender,7390 and the house1004 that is to be built1129 for the LORD3068 must be exceeding4605 magnificent,1431 of fame8034 and of glory8597 throughout all3605 countries:776 I will therefore now4994 make preparation3559 for it. So David1732 prepared3559 abundantly7230 before6440 his death.4194

6 Then he called7121 for Solomon8010 his son,1121 and charged6680 him to build1129 an house1004 for the LORD3068 God430 of Israel.3478

7 And David1732 said559 to Solomon,8010 My son,1121 as for me, it was in my mind3824 to build1129 an house1004 to the name8034 of the LORD3068 my God:430

8 But the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 to me, saying,559 You have shed8210 blood1818 abundantly,7230 and have made6213 great1419 wars:4421 you shall not build1129 an house1004 to my name,8034 because3588 you have shed8210 much7227 blood1818 on the earth776 in my sight.6440

9 Behold,2009 a son1121 shall be born3205 to you, who1931 shall be a man376 of rest;4496 and I will give him rest5117 from all3605 his enemies341 round5439 about: for his name8034 shall be Solomon,8010 and I will give5414 peace7965 and quietness8253 to Israel3478 in his days.3117

10 He shall build1129 an house1004 for my name;8034 and he shall be my son,1121 and I will be his father;25 and I will establish3559 the throne3678 of his kingdom4438 over5921 Israel3478 for ever.5769

11 Now,6258 my son,1121 the LORD3068 be with you; and prosper6743 you, and build1129 the house1004 of the LORD3068 your God,430 as he has said1696 of you.

12 Only the LORD3068 give5414 you wisdom7922 and understanding,998 and give you charge6680 concerning5921 Israel,3478 that you may keep8104 the law8451 of the LORD3068 your God.430

13 Then227 shall you prosper,6743 if518 you take8104 heed8104 to fulfill6213 the statutes2706 and judgments4941 which834 the LORD3068 charged6680 Moses4872 with concerning5921 Israel:3478 be strong,2388 and of good courage;553 dread3372 not, nor408 be dismayed.2865

14 Now, behold,2009 in my trouble6040 I have prepared3559 for the house1004 of the LORD3068 an hundred3967 thousand505 talents3603 of gold,2091 and a thousand505 thousand505 talents3603 of silver;3701 and of brass5178 and iron1270 without369 weight;4948 for it is in abundance:7230 timber6086 also and stone68 have I prepared;3559 and you may add3254 thereto.5921

15 Moreover there are workmen6213 4399 with you in abundance,7230 hewers2672 and workers2796 of stone68 and timber,6086 and all3605 manner of cunning2450 men for every3605 manner of work.4399

16 Of the gold,2091 the silver,3701 and the brass,5178 and the iron,1270 there is no369 number.4557 Arise6965 therefore, and be doing,6213 and the LORD3068 be with you.

17 David1732 also commanded6680 all3605 the princes8269 of Israel3478 to help5826 Solomon8010 his son,1121 saying,

18 Is not the LORD3068 your God430 with you? and has he not given you rest5117 on every5437 side?5439 for he has given5414 the inhabitants3427 of the land776 into my hand;3027 and the land776 is subdued3533 before6440 the LORD,3068 and before6440 his people.5971

19 Now6258 set5414 your heart3824 and your soul5315 to seek1875 the LORD3068 your God;430 arise6965 therefore, and build1129 you the sanctuary4720 of the LORD3068 God,430 to bring935 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD,3068 and the holy6944 vessels3627 of God,430 into the house1004 that is to be built1129 to the name8034 of the LORD.3068

23

1 So when David1732 was old2204 and full7646 of days,3117 he made Solomon8010 his son1121 king4427 over5921 Israel.3478

2 And he gathered622 together all3605 the princes8269 of Israel,3478 with the priests3548 and the Levites.3881

3 Now the Levites3881 were numbered5608 from the age1121 of thirty7970 years8141 and upward:4605 and their number4557 by their polls,1538 man1397 by man,1397 was thirty7970 and eight8083 thousand.505

4 Of which,428 twenty6242 and four702 thousand505 were to set5329 forward5921 the work4399 of the house1004 of the LORD;3068 and six8337 thousand505 were officers7860 and judges:8199

5 Moreover four702 thousand505 were porters;7778 and four702 thousand505 praised1984 the LORD3068 with the instruments3627 which834 I made,6213 said David, to praise1984 therewith.

6 And David1732 divided2505 them into courses4256 among the sons1121 of Levi,3878 namely, Gershon,1647 Kohath,6955 and Merari.4847

7 Of the Gershonites1649 were, Laadan,3936 and Shimei.8096

8 The sons1121 of Laadan;3936 the chief7218 was Jehiel,3171 and Zetham,2241 and Joel,3100 three.7969

9 The sons1121 of Shimei;8096 Shelomith,8013 and Haziel,2381 and Haran,2039 three.7969 These428 were the chief7218 of the fathers1 of Laadan.3936

10 And the sons1121 of Shimei8096 were, Jahath,3189 Zina,2126 and Jeush,3266 and Beriah.1283 These428 four702 were the sons1121 of Shimei.8096

11 And Jahath3189 was the chief,7218 and Zizah2125 the second:8145 but Jeush3266 and Beriah1283 had not many7235 sons;1121 therefore they were in one259 reckoning,6486 according to their father's1 house.1004

12 The sons1121 of Kohath;6955 Amram,6019 Izhar,3324 Hebron,2275 and Uzziel,5816 four.702

13 The sons1121 of Amram;6019 Aaron175 and Moses:4872 and Aaron175 was separated,914 that he should sanctify6942 the most6944 holy6944 things, he and his sons1121 for ever,5769 to burn6999 incense6999 before6440 the LORD,3068 to minister8334 to him, and to bless1288 in his name8034 for ever.5769

14 Now concerning Moses4872 the man376 of God,430 his sons1121 were named7121 of the tribe7626 of Levi.3878

15 The sons1121 of Moses4872 were, Gershom,1648 and Eliezer.461

16 Of the sons1121 of Gershom,1648 Shebuel7619 was the chief.7218

17 And the sons1121 of Eliezer461 were, Rehabiah7345 the chief.7218 And Eliezer461 had1961 none3808 other312 sons;1121 but the sons1121 of Rehabiah7345 were very4605 many.7235

18 Of the sons1121 of Izhar;3324 Shelomith8019 the chief.7218

19 Of the sons1121 of Hebron;2275 Jeriah3404 the first,7218 Amariah568 the second,8145 Jahaziel3166 the third,7992 and Jekameam3360 the fourth.7243

20 Of the sons1121 of Uzziel;5816 Micah4318 the first 7218and Jesiah3449 the second.8145

21 The sons1121 of Merari;4847 Mahli,4249 and Mushi.4187 The sons1121 of Mahli;4249 Eleazar,499 and Kish.7027

22 And Eleazar499 died,4191 and had1961 no3808 sons,1121 but daughters:1323 and their brothers251 the sons1121 of Kish7027 took5375 them.

23 The sons1121 of Mushi;4187 Mahli,4249 and Eder,5740 and Jeremoth,3406 three.7969

24 These428 were the sons1121 of Levi3878 after the house1004 of their fathers;1 even the chief7218 of the fathers,1 as they were counted6485 by number4557 of names8034 by their polls,1538 that did6213 the work4399 for the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 from the age1121 of twenty6242 years8141 and upward.4605

25 For David1732 said,559 The LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 has given rest5117 to his people,5971 that they may dwell7931 in Jerusalem3389 for ever:5769

26 And also1571 to the Levites;3881 they shall no369 more carry5375 the tabernacle,4908 nor any3605 vessels3627 of it for the service5656 thereof.

27 For by the last314 words1697 of David1732 the Levites3881 were numbered4557 from twenty6242 years8141 old1121 and above:4605

28 Because3588 their office4612 was to wait3027 on the sons1121 of Aaron175 for the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 in the courts,2691 and in the chambers,3957 and in the purifying2893 of all3605 holy6944 things, and the work4639 of the service5656 of the house1004 of God;430

29 Both for the show bread,3899 4635 and for the fine flour5560 for meat offering,4503 and for the unleavened4682 cakes,7550 and for that which is baked in the pan,4227 and for that which is fried,7246 and for all3605 manner of measure4884 and size;4060

30 And to stand5975 every morning1242 to thank3034 and praise1984 the LORD,3068 and likewise3651 at even:6153

31 And to offer5927 all3605 burnt5930 sacrifices to the LORD3068 in the sabbaths,7676 in the new2320 moons,2320 and on the set4150 feasts,4150 by number,4557 according to the order4941 commanded to them, continually8548 before6440 the LORD:3068

32 And that they should keep8104 the charge4931 of the tabernacle168 of the congregation,4150 and the charge4931 of the holy6944 place, and the charge4931 of the sons1121 of Aaron175 their brothers,251 in the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD.3068

24

1 Now these are the divisions4256 of the sons1121 of Aaron.175 The sons1121 of Aaron;175 Nadab,5070 and Abihu,30 Eleazar,499 and Ithamar.385

2 But Nadab5070 and Abihu30 died4191 before6440 their father,25 and had1961 no3808 children:1121 therefore Eleazar499 and Ithamar385 executed the priest's3547 office.

3 And David1732 distributed2505 them, both Zadok6659 of the sons1121 of Eleazar,499 and Ahimelech288 of the sons1121 of Ithamar,385 according to their offices6486 in their service.5656

4 And there were more7227 chief7218 men1397 found4672 of the sons1121 of Eleazar499 than4480 of the sons1121 of Ithamar,385 and thus were they divided.2505 Among the sons1121 of Eleazar499 there were sixteen8337 6240 chief7218 men of the house1004 of their fathers,1 and eight8083 among the sons1121 of Ithamar385 according to the house1004 of their fathers.1

5 Thus were they divided2505 by lot,1486 one428 sort with another; for the governors8269 of the sanctuary,6944 and governors8269 of the house of God,430 were of the sons1121 of Eleazar,499 and of the sons1121 of Ithamar.385

6 And Shemaiah8098 the son1121 of Nethaneel5417 the scribe,5608 one of the Levites,3878 wrote3789 them before6440 the king,4428 and the princes,8269 and Zadok6659 the priest,3548 and Ahimelech288 the son1121 of Abiathar,54 and before the chief7218 of the fathers1 of the priests3548 and Levites:3881 one259 principal1 household1004 being taken270 for Eleazar,499 and one taken270 for Ithamar.385

7 Now the first7223 lot1486 came3318 forth3318 to Jehoiarib,3080 the second8145 to Jedaiah,3048

8 The third7992 to Harim,2766 the fourth7243 to Seorim,8188

9 The fifth2549 to Malchijah,4441 the sixth8345 to Mijamin,4326

10 The seventh7637 to Hakkoz,6976 the eighth8066 to Abijah,29

11 The ninth8671 to Jeshuah,3442 the tenth6224 to Shecaniah,7935

12 The eleventh6240 to Eliashib,475 the twelfth8147 6240 to Jakim,3356

13 The thirteenth7969 6240 to Huppah,2647 the fourteenth702 6240 to Jeshebeab,3434

14 The fifteenth2568 6240 to Bilgah,1083 the sixteenth8337 6240 to Immer,564

15 The seventeenth7651 6240 to Hezir,2387 the eighteenth6240 to Aphses,6483

16 The nineteenth8672 6240 to Pethahiah,6611 the twentieth6242 to Jehezekel,3168

17 The one259 and twentieth6242 to Jachin,3199 the two8147 and twentieth6242 to Gamul,1577

18 The three7969 and twentieth6242 to Delaiah,1806 the four702 and twentieth6242 to Maaziah.4590

19 These428 were the orderings6486 of them in their service5656 to come935 into the house1004 of the LORD,3068 according to their manner,4941 under Aaron175 their father,25 as the LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 had commanded6680 him.

20 And the rest3498 of the sons1121 of Levi3878 were these: Of the sons1121 of Amram;6019 Shubael:7619 of the sons1121 of Shubael;7619 Jehdeiah.3165

21 Concerning Rehabiah:7345 of the sons1121 of Rehabiah,7345 the first7218 was Isshiah.3449

22 Of the Izharites;3325 Shelomoth:8013 of the sons1121 of Shelomoth;8013 Jahath.3189

23 And the sons1121 of Hebron; Jeriah3404 the first, Amariah568 the second,8145 Jahaziel3166 the third,7992 Jekameam3360 the fourth.7243

24 Of the sons1121 of Uzziel;5816 Michah:4318 of the sons1121 of Michah;4318 Shamir.8053

25 The brother1730 of Michah4318 was Isshiah:3449 of the sons1121 of Isshiah; Zechariah.2148

26 The sons1121 of Merari4847 were Mahli4249 and Mushi:4187 the sons1121 of Jaaziah;3269 Beno.1121

27 The sons1121 of Merari4847 by Jaaziah;3269 Beno,1121 and Shoham,7719 and Zaccur,2139 and Ibri.5681

28 Of Mahli4249 came Eleazar,499 who had1961 no3808 sons.1121

5 And of all3605 my sons,1121 (for the LORD3068 has given5414 me many7227 sons,1121) he has chosen977 Solomon8010 my son1121 to sit3427 on the throne3678 of the kingdom4438 of the LORD3068 over5921 Israel.3478

6 And he said559 to me, Solomon8010 your son,1121 he shall build1129 my house1004 and my courts:2691 for I have chosen977 him to be my son,1121 and I will be his father.25

7 Moreover I will establish3559 his kingdom4438 for ever,5769 if518 he be constant2388 to do6213 my commandments4687 and my judgments,4941 as at this2088 day.3117

8 Now6258 therefore in the sight5869 of all3605 Israel3478 the congregation6951 of the LORD,3068 and in the audience241 of our God,430 keep8104 and seek1875 for all3605 the commandments4687 of the LORD3068 your God:430 that you may possess3423 this good2896 land,776 and leave5157 it for an inheritance5157 for your children1121 after310 you for ever.5769

9 And you, Solomon8010 my son,1121 know3045 you the God430 of your father,25 and serve5647 him with a perfect8003 heart3820 and with a willing2655 mind:5315 for the LORD3068 searches1875 all3605 hearts,3824 and understands995 all3605 the imaginations3336 of the thoughts:4284 if518 you seek1875 him, he will be found4672 of you; but if518 you forsake5800 him, he will cast2186 you off for ever.5703

10 Take7200 heed7200 now;6258 for the LORD3068 has chosen977 you to build1129 an house1004 for the sanctuary:4720 be strong,2388 and do6213 it.

11 Then David1732 gave5414 to Solomon8010 his son1121 the pattern8403 of the porch,197 and of the houses1004 thereof, and of the treasuries1597 thereof, and of the upper5944 chambers5944 thereof, and of the inner6442 parlors2315 thereof, and of the place1004 of the mercy3727 seat,

12 And the pattern8403 of all3605 that he had by the spirit,7307 of the courts2691 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and of all3605 the chambers3957 round5439 about, of the treasuries214 of the house1004 of God,430 and of the treasuries214 of the dedicated6944 things:

13 Also for the courses4256 of the priests3548 and the Levites,3881 and for all3605 the work4399 of the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and for all3605 the vessels3627 of service5656 in the house1004 of the LORD.3068

14 He gave of gold2091 by weight4948 for things of gold,2091 for all3605 instruments3627 of all3605 manner of service;5656 silver also for all3605 instruments3627 of silver3701 by weight,4948 for all3605 instruments3627 of every3605 kind of service:5656

15 Even the weight4948 for the candlesticks4501 of gold,2091 and for their lamps5216 of gold,2091 by weight4948 for every candlestick,4501 and for the lamps5216 thereof: and for the candlesticks4501 of silver3701 by weight,4948 both for the candlestick,4501 and also for the lamps5216 thereof, according to the use5656 of every candlestick.4501

16 And by weight4948 he gave gold2091 for the tables7979 of show bread,4635 for every table;7979 and likewise silver3701 for the tables7979 of silver:3701

17 Also pure2889 gold2091 for the meat hooks,4207 and the bowls,4219 and the cups:7184 and for the golden2091 basins3713 he gave gold by weight4948 for every basin;3713 and likewise silver by weight4948 for every basin3713 of silver:3701

18 And for the altar4196 of incense7004 refined2212 gold2091 by weight;4948 and gold2091 for the pattern8403 of the chariot4818 of the cherubim,3742 that spread6566 out their wings, and covered5526 the ark727 of the covenant of the LORD.3068

19 All3605 this, said David, the LORD3068 made me understand7919 in writing3791 by his hand3027 on me, even all3605 the works4399 of this pattern.8403

20 And David1732 said559 to Solomon8010 his son,1121 Be strong2388 and of good courage,553 and do6213 it: fear3372 not, nor408 be dismayed:2865 for the LORD3068 God,430 even my God,430 will be with you; he will not fail7503 you, nor3808 forsake5800 you, until5704 you have finished3615 all3605 the work4399 for the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD.3068

21 And, behold,2009 the courses4256 of the priests3548 and the Levites,3881 even they shall be with you for all3605 the service5656 of the house1004 of God:430 and there shall be with you for all3605 manner of workmanship4399 every3605 willing5081 skillful2451 man, for any3605 manner of service:5656 also the princes8269 and all3605 the people5971 will be wholly3605 at your commandment.1697

29

1 Furthermore David1732 the king4428 said559 to all3605 the congregation,6951 Solomon8010 my son,1121 whom alone259 God430 has chosen,977 is yet young5288 and tender,7390 and the work4399 is great:1419 for the palace1002 is not for man,120 but for the LORD3068 God.430

2 Now I have prepared3559 with all3605 my might3581 for the house1004 of my God430 the gold2091 for things to be made of gold,2091 and the silver3701 for things of silver,3701 and the brass5178 for things of brass,5178 the iron1270 for things of iron,1270 and wood6086 for things of wood;6086 onyx7718 stones,68 and stones68 to be set,4394 glistering6320 stones,68 and of divers7553 colors,7553 and all3605 manner of precious3368 stones,68 and marble7893 stones68 in abundance.7230

3 Moreover,5750 because I have set my affection7521 to the house1004 of my God,430 I have3426 of my own proper5459 good, of gold2091 and silver,3701 which I have given5414 to the house1004 of my God,430 over5921 and above4605 all3605 that I have prepared3559 for the holy6944 house.1004

4 Even three7969 thousand505 talents3603 of gold,2091 of the gold2091 of Ophir,211 and seven7651 thousand505 talents3603 of refined2212 silver,3701 to overlay2902 the walls7023 of the houses1004 with:

5 The gold2091 for things of gold,2091 and the silver3701 for things of silver,3701 and for all3605 manner of work4399 to be made by the hands3027 of artificers.2796 And who4310 then is willing5068 to consecrate4390 3027 his service3027 this day3117 to the LORD?3068

6 Then the chief8269 of the fathers1 and princes8269 of the tribes7626 of Israel 3478and the captains8269 of thousands505 and of hundreds,3967 with the rulers8269 of the king's4428 work,4399 offered willingly,5068

7 And gave5414 for the service5656 of the house1004 of God430 of gold2091 five2568 thousand505 talents3603 and ten7239 thousand7239 drams,150 and of silver3701 ten6235 thousand505 talents,3603 and of brass5178 eighteen7239 8083 thousand7239 505 talents,3603 and one hundred3967 thousand7239 505 talents3603 of iron.1270

8 And they with whom834 precious stones68 were found4672 gave5414 them to the treasure214 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 by the hand3027 of Jehiel3171 the Gershonite.1649

9 Then the people5971 rejoiced,8055 for that they offered willingly,5068 because3588 with perfect8003 heart3820 they offered willingly5068 to the LORD:3068 and David1732 the king4428 also1571 rejoiced8055 with great1419 joy.8057

10 Why David1732 blessed1288 the LORD3068 before5869 all3605 the congregation:6951 and David1732 said,559 Blessed1288 be you, LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 our father,25 for ever5769 and ever.5769

11 Yours, O LORD 3068is the greatness,1420 and the power,1369 and the glory,8597 and the victory,5331 and the majesty:1935 for all3605 that is in the heaven8064 and in the earth776 is yours; your is the kingdom,4467 O LORD,3068 and you are exalted5375 as head7218 above all.3605

12 Both riches6239 and honor3519 come of you, and you reign4910 over4605 all;3605 and in your hand3027 is power3581 and might;1369 and in your hand3027 it is to make great,1431 and to give strength2388 to all.3605

13 Now6258 therefore, our God,430 we thank3034 you, and praise1984 your glorious8597 name.8034

14 But who4310 am I, and what4310 is my people,5971 that we should be able6113 3581 to offer so willingly5068 after this2063 sort? for all3605 things come of you, and of your own have we given5414 you.

15 For we are strangers1616 before6440 you, and sojourners,8453 as were all3605 our fathers:1 our days3117 on5921 the earth776 are as a shadow,6738 and there is none369 abiding.4723

16 O LORD3068 our God,430 all3605 this2088 store1995 that we have prepared3559 to build1129 you an house1004 for your holy6944 name8034 comes of your hand,3027 and is all3605 your own.

17 I know3045 also, my God,430 that you try974 the heart,3824 and have pleasure7521 in uprightness.3476 As for me, in the uprightness4339 of my heart3824 I have willingly5068 offered all3605 these428 things: and now6258 have I seen7200 with joy8057 your people,5971 which are present4672 here,6311 to offer willingly5068 to you.

18 O LORD3068 God430 of Abraham,85 Isaac,3327 and of Israel,3478 our fathers,1 keep8104 this2063 for ever5769 in the imagination3336 of the thoughts4284 of the heart3824 of your people,5971 and prepare3559 their heart3824 to you:

19 And give5414 to Solomon8010 my son1121 a perfect8003 heart,3824 to keep8104 your commandments,4687 your testimonies,5715 and your statutes,2706 and to do6213 all3605 these things, and to build1129 the palace,1002 for the which834 I have made provision.3559

20 And David1732 said559 to all3605 the congregation,6951 Now4994 bless1288 the LORD3068 your God.430 And all3605 the congregation6951 blessed1288 the LORD3068 God430 of their fathers,1 and bowed6915 down6915 their heads,7218 and worshipped7812 the LORD,3068 and the king.4428

21 And they sacrificed2076 sacrifices2077 to the LORD,3068 and offered5927 burnt5930 offerings to the LORD,3068 on the morrow4283 after that day,3117 even a thousand505 bullocks,6499 a thousand505 rams,352 and a thousand505 lambs,3532 with their drink5262 offerings, and sacrifices2077 in abundance7230 for all3605 Israel:3478

22 And did eat398 and drink8354 before6440 the LORD3068 on that day3117 with great1419 gladness.8057 And they made Solomon8010 the son1121 of David1732 king4428 the second8145 time, and anointed4886 him to the LORD3068 to be the chief5057 governor,5057 and Zadok6659 to be priest.3548

23 Then Solomon8010 sat3427 on5921 the throne3678 of the LORD3068 as king4428 instead8478 of David1732 his father,25 and prospered;6743 and all3605 Israel3478 obeyed8085 him.

24 And all3605 the princes,8269 and the mighty1368 men, and all3605 the sons1121 likewise1571 of king4428 David,1732 submitted5414 3027 themselves to Solomon8010 the king.4428

25 And the LORD3068 magnified1431 Solomon8010 exceedingly4605 in the sight5869 of all3605 Israel,3478 and bestowed5414 on him such royal4438 majesty1935 as had1961 not been1961 on5921 any3605 king4428 before6440 him in Israel.3478

26 Thus David1732 the son1121 of Jesse3448 reigned4427 over5921 all3605 Israel.3478

27 And the time3117 that he reigned4427 over5921 Israel3478 was forty705 years;8141 seven7651 years8141 reigned4427 he in Hebron,2275 and thirty7970 and three7969 years8141 reigned4427 he in Jerusalem.3389

28 And he died4191 in a good2896 old7872 age,7872 full7646 of days,3117 riches,6239 and honor:3519 and Solomon8010 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478

29 Now the acts1697 of David1732 the king,4428 first7223 and last,314 behold,2009 they are written3789 in the book1697 of Samuel8050 the seer,7200 and in the book1697 of Nathan5416 the prophet,5030 and in the book1697 of Gad1410 the seer,2374

30 With all3605 his reign4438 and his might,1369 and the times that went5674 over5674 him, and over5921 Israel,3478 and over5921 all3605 the kingdoms4467 of the countries.776
