1Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
KJVThen all IsraelH3478 gatheredH6908(H8735) themselves to DavidH1732 unto HebronH2275, sayingH559(H8800), Behold, we are thy boneH6106 and thy fleshH1320.
2 In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. Yahweh your God said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over my people Israel.’”
KJVAnd moreover in timeH8543 pastH8032, even when SaulH7586 was kingH4428, thou wast he that leddest outH3318(H8688) and broughtest inH935(H8688) IsraelH3478: and the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 saidH559(H8799) unto thee, Thou shalt feedH7462(H8799) my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and thou shalt be rulerH5057 over my peopleH1571 IsraelH3478.
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Yahweh. They anointed David king over Israel, according to Yahweh’s word by Samuel.
KJVTherefore cameH935(H8799) all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 to the kingH4428 to HebronH2275; and DavidH1732 madeH3772(H8799) a covenantH1285 with them in HebronH2275 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; and they anointedH4886(H8799) DavidH1732 kingH4428 over IsraelH3478, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 byH3027 SamuelH8050.
4 David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (also called Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
KJVAnd DavidH1732 and all IsraelH3478 wentH3212(H8799) to JerusalemH3389, which is JebusH2982; where the JebusitesH2983 were, the inhabitantsH3427(H8802) of the landH776.
5 The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You will not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. The same is David’s city.
KJVAnd the inhabitantsH3427(H8802) of JebusH2982 saidH559(H8799) to DavidH1732, Thou shalt not comeH935(H8799) hither. Nevertheless DavidH1732 tookH3920(H8799) the castleH4686 of ZionH6726, which is the cityH5892 of DavidH1732.
6 David had said, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
KJVAnd DavidH1732 saidH559(H8799), Whosoever smitethH5221(H8688) the JebusitesH2983 firstH7223 shall be chiefH7218 and captainH8269. So JoabH3097 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 wentH5927 firstH7223 upH5927(H8799), and was chiefH7218.
7 David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it David’s city.
KJVAnd DavidH1732 dweltH3427(H8799) in the castleH4679; therefore they calledH7121(H8804) it the cityH5892 of DavidH1732.
8 He built the city all around, from Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
KJVAnd he builtH1129(H8799) the cityH5892 round aboutH5439, even from MilloH4407 round aboutH5439: and JoabH3097 repairedH2421(H8762) the restH7605 of the cityH5892.
9 David grew greater and greater, for Yahweh of Armies was with him.
KJVSo DavidH1732 waxedH3212(H8799) greaterH1980(H8800) and greaterH1419: for the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 was with him.
10 Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to Yahweh’s word concerning Israel.
KJVThese also are the chiefH7218 of the mighty menH1368 whom DavidH1732 had, who strengthenedH2388(H8693) themselves with him in his kingdomH4438, and with all IsraelH3478, to make him kingH4427(H8687), according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 concerning IsraelH3478.
11 This is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.
KJVAnd this is the numberH4557 of the mighty menH1368 whom DavidH1732 had; JashobeamH3434, an HachmoniteH2453, the chiefH7218 of the captainsH7991(H8675)H7970: he lifted upH5782(H8790) his spearH2595 against threeH7969 hundredH3967 slainH2491 by him at oneH259 timeH6471.
12 After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.
KJVAnd afterH310 him was EleazarH499 the sonH1121 of DodoH1734, the AhohiteH266, who was one of the threeH7969 mightiesH1368.
13 He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
KJVHe was with DavidH1732 at PasdammimH6450, and there the PhilistinesH6430 were gathered togetherH622(H8738) to battleH4421, where was a parcelH2513 of groundH7704 fullH4392 of barleyH8184; and the peopleH5971 fledH5127(H8804) from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430.
14 They stood in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and Yahweh saved them by a great victory.
KJVAnd they setH3320(H8691) themselves in the midstH8432 of that parcelH2513, and deliveredH5337(H8686) it, and slewH5221(H8686) the PhilistinesH6430; and the LORDH3068 savedH3467(H8686) them by a greatH1419 deliveranceH8668.
15 Three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
KJVNow threeH7969 of the thirtyH7970 captainsH7218 went downH3381(H8799) to the rockH6697 to DavidH1732, into the caveH4631 of AdullamH5725; and the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 encampedH2583(H8802) in the valleyH6010 of RephaimH7497.
16 David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem at that time.
KJVAnd DavidH1732 was then in the holdH4686, and the PhilistinesH6430' garrisonH5333 was then at BethlehemH1035.
17 David longed, and said, “Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”
KJVAnd DavidH1732 longedH183(H8691), and saidH559(H8799), Oh that one would give me drinkH8248(H8686) of the waterH4325 of the wellH953 of BethlehemH1035, that is at the gateH8179!
18 The three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, took it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink any of it, but poured it out to Yahweh,
KJVAnd the threeH7969 brake throughH1234(H8799) the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430, and drewH7579(H8799) waterH4325 out of the wellH953 of BethlehemH1035, that was by the gateH8179, and tookH5375(H8799) it, and broughtH935(H8686) it to DavidH1732: but DavidH1732 wouldH14(H8804) not drinkH8354(H8800) of it, but poured it outH5258(H8762) to the LORDH3068,
19 and said, “My God forbid me, that I should do this! Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy?” For they risked their lives to bring it. Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.
KJVAnd saidH559(H8799), My GodH430 forbidH2486 it me, that I should doH6213(H8800) this thingH2063: shall I drinkH8354(H8799) the bloodH1818 of these menH582 that have put their lives in jeopardyH5315? for with the jeopardy of their livesH5315 they broughtH935(H8689) it. Therefore he wouldH14(H8804) not drinkH8354(H8800) it. These things didH6213(H8804) these threeH7969 mightiestH1368.
20 Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name among the three.
