25 And they transgressed <04603> against the God < 0430> of their fathers <01>, and went a whoring <02181> after <0310> the gods <0430> of the people <05971> of the land <0776>, whom <0834> God <0430> destroyed < 08045> before <06440> them.

26 And the God <0430> of Israel <03478> stirred < 05782> up the spirit <07307> of Pul <06322> king < 04428> of Assyria <0804>, and the spirit <07307> of Tilgathpilneser <08407> king <04428> of Assyria <0804>, and he carried <01540> them away <01540>, even the Reubenites <07206>, and the Gadites <01425>, and the half <02677> tribe <07626> of Manasseh <04519>, and brought <0935> them unto Halah <02477>, and Habor <02249>, and Hara < 02024>, and to the river <05104> Gozan <01470>, unto this <02088> day <03117>.

17 And the porters <07778> [were], Shallum <07967>, and Akkub <06126>, and Talmon <02929>, and Ahiman <0289>, and their brethren <0251>: Shallum <07967> [was] the chief <07218>;

18 Who hitherto [waited] in the king's <04428> gate < 08179> eastward <04217>: they [were] porters <07778> in the companies <04264> of the children <01121> of Levi <03878> .

19 And Shallum <07967> the son <01121> of Kore < 06981>, the son <01121> of Ebiasaph <043>, the son < 01121> of Korah <07141>, and his brethren <0251>, of the house <01004> of his father <01>, the Korahites <07145>, [were] over <05921> the work <04399> of the service < 05656>, keepers <08104> of the gates <05592> of the tabernacle <0168>: and their fathers <01>, [being] over < 05921> the host <04264> of the LORD <03068>, [were] keepers <08104> of the entry <03996>.

20 And Phinehas <06372> the son <01121> of Eleazar <0499> was the ruler <05057> over <05921> them in time <06440> past, [and] the LORD <03068> [was] with him.

21 [And] Zechariah <02148> the son <01121> of Meshelemiah <04920> [was] porter <07778> of the door < 06607> of the tabernacle <0168> of the congregation <04150>.

22 All <03605> these [which were] chosen <01305> to be porters <07778> in the gates <05592> [were] two hundred < 03967> and twelve. These <01992> were reckoned <03187> by their genealogy <03188> in their villages <02691>, whom David <01732> and Samuel <08050> the seer <07200> did ordain <03245> in their set <0530> office.

23 So they and their children <01121> [had] the oversight <05921> of the gates <08179> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, [namely], the house <01004> of the tabernacle <0168>, by wards <04931>.

24 In four <0702> quarters <07307> were the porters <07778>, toward the east <04217>, west <03220>, north <06828>, and south <05045>.

25 And their brethren <0251>, [which were] in their villages <02691>, [were] to come <0935> after seven < 07651> days <03117> from time <06256> to time <06256> with them.

26 For these <01992> Levites <03881>, the four < 0702> chief <01368> porters <07778>, were in [their] set <0530> office, and were over <05921> the chambers <03957> and treasuries <0214> of the house <01004> of God <0430> .

27 And they lodged <03885> round <05439> about the house <01004> of God <0430>, because <03588> the charge <04931> [was] upon them, and the opening <04668> thereof every morning <01242> [pertained] to them.

28 And [certain] of them had the charge <05921> of the ministering <05656> vessels <03627>, that they should bring them in and out by tale <04557>.

29 [Some] of them also [were] appointed <04487> to oversee the vessels <03627>, and all <03605> the instruments <03627> of the sanctuary <06944>, and the fine flour < 05560>, and the wine <03196>, and the oil <08081>, and the frankincense <03828>, and the spices <01314>.

30 And [some] of the sons <01121> of the priests < 03548> made <07543> the ointment <04842> of the spices < 01314>.

31 And Mattithiah <04993>, [one] of the Levites < 03881>, who <01931> [was] the firstborn <01060> of Shallum <07967> the Korahite <07145>, had the set <0530> office over <05921> the things that were made <04639> in the pans < 02281>.

32 And [other] of their brethren <0251>, of the sons < 01121> of the Kohathites <06956>, [were] over <05921> the shewbread, to prepare <03559> [it] every sabbath <07676>.

33 And these <0428> [are] the singers <07891>, chief <07218> of the fathers <01> of the Levites <03881>, [who remaining] in the chambers <03957> [were] free <06362>: for they were employed <05921> in [that] work <04399> day < 03119> and night <03915>.

34 These <0428> chief <07218> fathers <01> of the Levites <03881> [were] chief <07218> throughout their generations <08435>; these <0428> dwelt <03427> at Jerusalem <03389>.

35. And in Gibeon <01391> dwelt <03427> the father <025> of Gibeon <01391>, Jehiel <03273>, whose wife's <0802> name <08034> [was] Maachah <04601>:

37 And Gedor <01446>, and Ahio <0283>, and Zechariah <02148>, and Mikloth <04732>.

38 And Mikloth <04732> begat <03205> Shimeam < 08043>. And they also <0637> dwelt <03427> with their brethren <0251> at Jerusalem <03389>, over <05048> against <05048> their brethren <0251>.

39 And Ner <05369> begat <03205> Kish <07027>; and Kish <07027> begat <03205> Saul <07586>; and Saul <07586> begat <03205> Jonathan <03083>, and Malchishua <04444>, and Abinadab <041>, and Eshbaal <0792>.

40 And the son <01121> of Jonathan <03083> [was] Meribbaal <04807>: and Meribbaal <04810> begat <03205> Micah <04318>.

41 And the sons <01121> of Micah <04318> [were], Pithon <06377>, and Melech <04429>, and Tahrea <08475>, [and Ahaz].

42 And Ahaz <0271> begat <03205> Jarah <03294> ; and Jarah <03294> begat <03205> Alemeth <05964>, and Azmaveth <05820>, and Zimri <02174>; and Zimri <02174> begat <03205> Moza <04162>;

1Chronicles 10

1. Now the Philistines <06430> fought <03898> against <05921> Israel <03478>; and the men <0376> of Israel <03478> fled <05127> from before <06440> the Philistines <06430>, and fell <05307> down slain <02491> in mount <02022> Gilboa <01533>.

2 And the Philistines <06430> followed <01692> hard <05221> after <0310> Saul <07586>, and after <0310> his sons <01121>; and the Philistines <06430> slew < 05221> Jonathan <03129>, and Abinadab <041>, and Malchishua <04444>, the sons <01121> of Saul <07586>.

3 And the battle <04421> went sore <03513> against <05921> Saul <07586>, and the archers <07198> hit < 04672> him, and he was wounded <02342> of the archers < 03384>.

4 Then said <0559> Saul <07586> to his armourbearer <03627>, Draw <08025> thy sword <02719>, and thrust < 01856> me through therewith; lest <06435> these <0428> uncircumcised <06189> come <0935> and abuse <05953> me. But his armourbearer <03627> would <014> not; for he was sore <03966> afraid <03372>. So Saul <07586> took < 03947> a sword <02719>, and fell <05307> upon it.

5 And when his armourbearer <03627> saw <07200> that Saul <07586> was dead <04191>, he fell <05307> likewise <01571> on <05921> the sword <02719>, and died <04191>.

6 So Saul <07586> died <04191>, and his three < 07969> sons <01121>, and all <03605> his house <01004> died <04191> together <03162>.

7 And when all <03605> the men <0376> of Israel < 03478> that [were] in the valley <06010> saw <07200> that they fled <05127>, and that Saul <07586> and his sons < 01121> were dead <04191>, then they forsook <05800> their cities <05892>, and fled <05127>: and the Philistines < 06430> came <0935> and dwelt <03427> in them.

8. And it came <01961> to pass on the morrow <04283>, when the Philistines <06430> came <0935> to strip < 06584> the slain <02491>, that they found <04672> Saul < 07586> and his sons <01121> fallen <05307> in mount < 02022> Gilboa <01533>.

9 And when they had stripped <06584> him, they took < 05375> his head <07218>, and his armour <03627>, and sent <07971> into the land <0776> of the Philistines <06430> round <05439> about, to carry <01319> tidings <01319> unto their idols <06091>, and to the people <05971>.

10 And they put <07760> his armour <03627> in the house <01004> of their gods <0430>, and fastened <08628> his head <07218> in the temple <01004> of Dagon <01712>.

11 And when all <03605> Jabeshgilead heard <08085> all <03605> that the Philistines <06430> had done <06213> to Saul <07586>,

12 They arose <06965>, all <03605> the valiant < 02428> men <0376>, and took <05375> away the body < 01480> of Saul <07586>, and the bodies <01480> of his sons <01121>, and brought <0935> them to Jabesh <03003>, and buried <06912> their bones <06106> under <08478> the oak <0424> in Jabesh <03003>, and fasted <06684> seven < 07651> days <03117>.

13 So Saul <07586> died <04191> for his transgression <04604> which <0834> he committed <04600> against the LORD <03068>, [even] against <05921> the word < 01697> of the LORD <03068>, which <0834> he kept < 08104> not, and also <01571> for asking <07592> [counsel] of [one that had] a familiar spirit <0178>, to enquire <01875> [of it];

14 And enquired <01875> not of the LORD <03068>: therefore he slew <04191> him, and turned <05437> the kingdom <04410> unto David <01732> the son <01121> of Jesse < 03448>.

1Chronicles 11

1. Then all <03605> Israel <03478> gathered < 06908> themselves to David <01732> unto Hebron <02275>, saying <0559>, Behold <02009>, we [are] thy bone <06106> and thy flesh <01320>.

2 And moreover <01571> in time <08543> past < 08032>, even <01571> when Saul <07586> was king < 04428>, thou [wast] he that leddest <03318> out and broughtest <0935> in Israel <03478>: and the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> said <0559> unto thee, Thou shalt feed <07462> my people <05971> Israel <03478>, and thou shalt be ruler < 05057> over <05921> my people <05971> Israel <03478>.

3 Therefore came <0935> all <03605> the elders < 02205> of Israel <03478> to the king <04428> to Hebron < 02275>; and David <01732> made <03772> a covenant < 01285> with them in Hebron <02275> before <06440> the LORD <03068>; and they anointed <04886> David <01732> king <04428> over <05921> Israel <03478>, according to the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> by Samuel <08050>.

4 And David <01732> and all <03605> Israel < 03478> went <03212> to Jerusalem <03389>, which < 01958> [is] Jebus <02982>; where <08033> the Jebusites < 02983> [were], the inhabitants <03427> of the land <0776>.

5 And the inhabitants <03427> of Jebus <02982> said <0559> to David <01732>, Thou shalt not come <0935> hither. Nevertheless David <01732> took <03920> the castle < 04686> of Zion <06726>, which <01958> [is] the city < 05892> of David <01732>.

6 And David <01732> said <0559>, Whosoever < 03605> smiteth <05221> the Jebusites <02983> first < 07223> shall be chief <07218> and captain <08269>. So Joab <03097> the son <01121> of Zeruiah <06870> went < 05927> first <07223> up, and was chief <07218>.

7 And David <01732> dwelt <03427> in the castle < 04679>; therefore they called <07121> it the city <05892> of David <01732>.

8 And he built <01129> the city <05892> round < 05439> about, even from Millo <04407> round <05439> about: and Joab <03097> repaired <02421> the rest <07605> of the city <05892>.

9 So David <01732> waxed <01980> greater < 01980> and greater <01419>: for the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> [was] with him.

10. These <0428> also [are] the chief <07218> of the mighty <01368> men whom <0834> David <01732> had, who strengthened <02388> themselves with him in his kingdom <04438> , [and] with all <03605> Israel <03478>, to make him king < 04427>, according to the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> concerning <05921> Israel <03478>.

11 And this <0428> [is] the number <04557> of the mighty <01368> men whom <0834> David had; Jashobeam < 03434>, an Hachmonite <02453>, the chief <07218> of the captains <07991>: he lifted <05782> up his spear <02595> against <05921> three <07969> hundred <03967> slain < 02491> [by him] at one <0259> time <06471>.

12 And after <0310> him [was] Eleazar <0499> the son <01121> of Dodo <01734>, the Ahohite <0266>, who < 01931> [was one] of the three <07969> mighties <01368>.

13 He was with David <01732> at Pasdammim <06450>, and there <08033> the Philistines <06430> were gathered < 0622> together to battle <04421>, where <0834> was a parcel <02513> of ground <07704> full <04392> of barley < 08184>; and the people <05971> fled <05127> from before < 06440> the Philistines <06430>.

14 And they set <03320> themselves in the midst < 08432> of [that] parcel <02513>, and delivered <05337> it, and slew <05221> the Philistines <06430>; and the LORD < 03068> saved <03467> [them] by a great deliverance <08668>.

15 Now three <07969> of the thirty <07970> captains <07218> went <03381> down <03381> to the rock < 06697> to David <01732>, into <0413> the cave <04631> of Adullam <05725>; and the host <04264> of the Philistines <06430> encamped <02583> in the valley <06010> of Rephaim <07497>.

16 And David <01732> [was] then <0227> in the hold <04686>, and the Philistines <06430>' garrison <05333> [was] then <0227> at Bethlehem <01035>.

17 And David <01732> longed <0183>, and said < 0559>, Oh that one would give me drink <08248> of the water < 04325> of the well <0953> of Bethlehem <01035>, that [is] at the gate <08179>!

18 And the three <07969> brake <01234> through < 01234> the host <04264> of the Philistines <06430>, and drew <07579> water <04325> out of the well <0953> of Bethlehem <01035>, that [was] by the gate <08179>, and took <05375> [it], and brought <0935> [it] to David <01732>: but David <01732> would <014> not drink <08354> [of] it, but poured <05258> it out to the LORD <03068>,

19 And said <0559>, My God <0430> forbid < 02486> it me, that I should do <06213> this <02063> thing: shall I drink <08354> the blood <01818> of these <0428> men <0582> that have put <05414> their lives <05315> in jeopardy? for with [the jeopardy of] their lives <05315> they brought <0935> it. Therefore he would <014> not drink < 08354> it. These <0428> things did <06213> these < 0428> three <07969> mightiest <01368>.

20 And Abishai <052> the brother <0251> of Joab < 03097>, he was chief <07218> of the three <07969>: for lifting <05782> up his spear <02595> against <05921> three <07969> hundred <03967>, he slew <02490> [them], and had <01961> a name <08034> among the three <07969>.

21 Of the three <07969>, he was more honourable < 03513> than the two <08147>; for he was their captain < 08269>: howbeit he attained <0935> not to the [first] three < 07969>.

22 Benaiah <01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada < 03111>, the son <01121> of a valiant <02428> man < 0376> of Kabzeel <06909>, who had done many <07227> acts <06467>; he slew <05221> two <08147> lionlike < 0739> men <0582> of Moab <04124>: also he went <03381> down <03381> and slew <05221> a lion <0738> in a pit <0953> in a snowy <07950> day <03117>.

23 And he slew <05221> 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> beam <04500> ; and he went <03381> down <03381> to him with a staff < 07626>, and plucked <01497> the spear <02595> out of the Egyptian's <04713> hand <03027>, and slew <02026> him with his own spear <02595>.

24 These <0428> [things] did <06213> Benaiah < 01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada <03111>, and had the name <08034> among the three <07969> mighties <01368>.

25 Behold <02009>, he was honourable <03513> among <04480> the thirty <07970>, but attained <0935> not to the [first] three <07969>: and David <01732> set <07760> him over <05921> his guard <04928>.

1. Now these <0428> [are] they that came <0935> to David <01732> to Ziklag <06860>, while he yet <05750> kept <06113> himself close <06113> because <06440> of Saul <07586> the son <01121> of Kish <07027>: and they [were] among the mighty <01368> men, helpers <05826> of the war <04421>.

2 [They were] armed <05401> with bows <07198>, and could use <03231> both the right <03231> hand and the left < 08040> in [hurling] stones <068> and [shooting] arrows < 02671> out of a bow <07198>, [even] of Saul's <07586> brethren <0251> of Benjamin <01144>.

3 The chief <07218> [was] Ahiezer <0295>, then Joash <03101>, the sons <01121> of Shemaah <08093> the Gibeathite <01395>; and Jeziel <03149>, and Pelet <06404> , the sons <01121> of Azmaveth <05820>; and Berachah < 01294>, and Jehu <03058> the Antothite <06069>,

4 And Ismaiah <03460> the Gibeonite <01393>, a mighty <01368> man among the thirty <07970>, and over < 05921> the thirty <07970>; and Jeremiah <03414>, and Jahaziel <03166>, and Johanan <03110>, and Josabad < 03107> the Gederathite <01452>,

5 Eluzai <0498>, and Jerimoth <03406>, and Bealiah <01183>, and Shemariah <08114>, and Shephatiah <08203> the Haruphite <02741>,

6 Elkanah <0511>, and Jesiah <03449>, and Azareel <05832>, and Joezer <03134>, and Jashobeam <03434>, the Korhites <07145>,

7 And Joelah <03132>, and Zebadiah <02069>, the sons <01121> of Jeroham <03395> of Gedor <01446>.

8 And of the Gadites <01425> there separated <0914> themselves unto David <01732> into the hold <04679> to the wilderness <04057> men <0582> of might <02428>, [and] men of war <06635> [fit] for the battle <04421>, that could handle <06186> shield <06793> and buckler <07420>, whose faces <06440> [were like] the faces <06440> of lions < 0738>, and [were] as swift <04116> as the roes <06643> upon the mountains <02022>;

10 Mishmannah <04925> the fourth <07243>, Jeremiah <03414> the fifth <02549>,

11 Attai <06262> the sixth <08345>, Eliel < 0447> the seventh <07637>,

12 Johanan <03110> the eighth <08066>, Elzabad < 0443> the ninth <08671>,

13 Jeremiah <03414> the tenth <06224>, Machbanai <04344> the eleventh.

14 These <0428> [were] of the sons <01121> of Gad <01410>, captains <07218> of the host <06635>: one < 0259> of the least <06996> [was] over an hundred <03967>, and the greatest <01419> over a thousand <0505>.

15 These [are] they that went <05674> over <05674> Jordan <03383> in the first <07223> month <02320>, when it had overflown <04390> all <03605> his banks <01428>; and they put <07760> to flight <01272> all <03605> [them] of the valleys <06010>, [both] toward the east <04217>, and toward the west <04628>.

16 And there came <0935> of the children <01121> of Benjamin <01144> and Judah <03063> to the hold <04679> unto David <01732>.

17 And David <01732> went <03318> out to meet < 06440> them, and answered <06030> and said <0559> unto them, If <0518> ye be come <0935> peaceably <07965> unto me to help <05826> me, mine heart <03824> shall be knit < 03162> unto you: but if <0518> [ye be come] to betray < 07411> 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> [thereon], and rebuke <03198> [it].

18 Then the spirit <07307> came <03847> upon Amasai <06022>, [who was] chief <07218> of the captains <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>; for thy God <0430> helpeth <05826> thee. Then David <01732> received <06901> them, and made <05414> them captains <07218> of the band <01416>.

19 And there fell <05307> [some] of Manasseh <04519> to David <01732>, when he came <0935> with the Philistines <06430> against <05921> Saul <07586> to battle < 04421>: but they helped <05826> them not: for the lords < 05633> of the Philistines <06430> upon advisement <06098> sent <07971> him away, saying <0559>, He will fall < 05307> to his master <0113> Saul <07586> to [the jeopardy of] our heads <07218>.

20 As he went <03212> to Ziklag <06860>, there fell <05307> to him of Manasseh <04519>, Adnah <05734>, and Jozabad <03107>, and Jediael <03043>, and Michael <04317> , and Jozabad <03107>, and Elihu <0453>, and Zilthai < 06769>, captains <07218> of the thousands <0505> that [were] of Manasseh <04519>.

21 And they helped <05826> David <01732> against <05921> the band <01416> [of the rovers]: for they [were] all <03605> mighty <01368> men of valour <02428>, and were captains <08269> in the host <06635>.

22 For at [that] time <06256> day <03117> by day <03117> there came <0935> to David <01732> to help < 05826> him, until <05704> [it was] a great <01419> host < 04264>, like the host <04264> of God <0430>.

23. And these <0428> [are] the numbers <04557> of the bands <07218> [that were] ready armed <02502> to the war <06635>, [and] came <0935> to David <01732> to Hebron <02275>, to turn <05437> the kingdom <04438> of Saul < 07586> to him, according to the word <06310> of the LORD < 03068>.

24 The children <01121> of Judah <03063> that bare <05375> shield <06793> and spear <07420> [were] six < 08337> thousand <0505> and eight <08083> hundred < 03967>, ready armed <02502> to the war <06635>.

25 Of the children <01121> of Simeon <08095>, mighty <01368> men of valour <02428> for the war <06635>, seven <07651> thousand <0505> and one hundred <03967>.

26 Of the children <01121> of Levi <03878> four < 0702> thousand <0505> and six <08337> hundred <03967>.

27 And Jehoiada <03111> [was] the leader <05057> of the Aaronites <0175>, and with him [were] three <07969> thousand <0505> and seven <07651> hundred <03967>;

28 And Zadok <06659>, a young <05288> man mighty <01368> of valour <02428>, and of his father's <01> house <01004> twenty <06242> and two <08147> captains <08269>.

29 And of the children <01121> of Benjamin <01144>, the kindred <0250> of Saul <07586>, three <07969> thousand <0505>: for hitherto the greatest <04768> part of them had kept <08104> the ward <04931> of the house < 01004> of Saul <07586>.

30 And of the children <01121> of Ephraim <0669> twenty <06242> thousand <0505> and eight <08083> hundred <03967>, mighty <01368> men of valour <02428>, famous <08034> throughout the house <01004> of their fathers < 01>.

31 And of the half <02677> tribe <04294> of Manasseh <04519> eighteen thousand <0505>, which <0834> were expressed <05344> by name <08034>, to come <0935> and make David <01732> king <04427>.

32 And of the children <01121> of Issachar <03485>, [which <0834> were men <0582>] that had understanding < 0998> of the times, to know <03045> what <04100> Israel < 03478> ought to do <06213>; the heads of them [were] two hundred <03967>; and all <03605> their brethren <0251> [were] at <05921> their commandment <06310>.

33 Of Zebulun <02074>, such as went <03318> forth <03318> to battle <06635>, expert <06186> in war < 04421>, with all <03605> instruments <03627> of war < 04421>, fifty <02572> thousand <0505>, which could keep < 05737> rank <05737>: [they were] not of double heart <03820> .

34 And of Naphtali <05321> a thousand <0505> captains <08269>, and with them with shield <06793> and spear <02595> thirty <07970> and seven <07651> thousand < 0505>.

35 And of the Danites <01839> expert <06186> in war <04421> twenty <06242> and eight <08083> thousand < 0505> and six <08337> hundred <03967>.

36 And of Asher <0836>, such as went <03318> forth <03318> to battle <06635>, expert <06186> in war < 04421>, forty <0705> thousand <0505>.

37 And on the other <05676> side <05676> of Jordan <03383>, of the Reubenites <07206>, and the Gadites < 01425>, and of the half <02677> tribe <07626> of Manasseh <04519>, with all <03605> manner of instruments <03627> of war <06635> for the battle <04421>, an hundred <03967> and twenty <06242> thousand <0505>.

38 All <03605> these <0428> men <0582> of war <04421>, that could keep <05737> rank <04634>, came < 0935> with a perfect <08003> heart <03820> to Hebron < 02275>, to make David <01732> king <04427> over < 05921> all <03605> Israel <03478>: and all <03605> the rest <07611> also <01571> of Israel <03478> [were] of one <0259> heart <03824> to make David <01732> king <04427>.

39 And there <08033> they were with David <01732> three <07969> days <03117>, eating <0398> and drinking <08354>: for their brethren <0251> had prepared <03559> for them.

40 Moreover <01571> they that were nigh <07126> them, [even] unto Issachar <03485> and Zebulun <02074> and Naphtali <05321>, brought <0935> bread <03899> on asses <02543>, and on camels <01581>, and on mules <06505>, and on oxen <01241>, [and] meat <03978>, meal <07058>, cakes <01690> of figs, and bunches <06778> of raisins < 06778>, and wine <03196>, and oil <08081>, and oxen < 01241>, and sheep <06629> abundantly <07230>: for [there was] joy <08057> in Israel <03478>.

1Chronicles 13

1. And David <01732> consulted <03289> with the captains <08269> of thousands <0505> and hundreds <03967> , [and] with every <03605> leader <05057>.

2 And David <01732> said <0559> unto all < 03605> the congregation <06951> of Israel <03478>, If < 0518> [it seem] good <02895> unto you, and [that it be] of the LORD <03068> our God <0430>, let us send <07971> abroad <06555> unto our brethren <0251> every where, [that are] left <07604> in all <03605> 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> themselves unto us:

3 And let us bring <05437> again <05437> the ark <0727> of our God <0430> to us: for we enquired <01875> not at it in the days <03117> of Saul <07586>.

4 And all <03605> the congregation <06951> said < 0559> that they would do <06213> so <03651>: for the thing <01697> was right <03477> in the eyes <05869> of all < 03605> the people <05971>.

5 So David <01732> gathered <06950> all < 03605> Israel <03478> together, from Shihor <07883> of Egypt <04714> even unto the entering <0935> of Hemath < 02574>, to bring <0935> the ark <0727> of God <0430> from Kirjathjearim <07157>.

6 And David <01732> went <05927> up, and all < 03605> Israel <03478>, to Baalah <01173>, [that is], to Kirjathjearim <07157>, which <0834> [belonged] to Judah < 03063>, to bring <05927> up thence <08033> the ark < 0727> of God <0430> the LORD <03068>, that dwelleth < 03427> [between] the cherubims <03742>, whose name <08034> is called <07121> [on it].

7 And they carried <07392> 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> the cart <05699>.

8 And David <01732> and all <03605> Israel < 03478> played <07832> 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>.

9. And when they came <0935> unto the threshingfloor < 01637> of Chidon <03592>, Uzza <05798> put <07971> forth <07971> his hand <03027> to hold <0270> the ark <0727>; for the oxen <01241> stumbled <08058>.

10 And the anger <0639> of the LORD <03068> was kindled <02734> against Uzza <05798>, and he smote < 05221> him, because he put <07971> his hand <03027> to the ark <0727>: and there <08033> he died <04191> before < 06440> God <0430>.

11 And David <01732> was displeased <02734>, because <03588> the LORD <03068> had made a breach < 06556> upon Uzza <05798>: wherefore <04100> that place < 04725> is called <07121> Perezuzza <06560> to this < 02088> day <03117>.

12 And David <01732> was afraid <03372> of God < 0430> that day <03117>, saying <0559>, How <01963> shall I bring <0935> the ark <0727> of God <0430> [home] to me?

13 So David <01732> brought <05493> not the ark < 0727> [home] to himself to the city <05892> of David <01732> , but carried <05186> it aside <05186> into <0413> the house <01004> of Obededom <05654> the Gittite <01663>.

14 And the ark <0727> of God <0430> remained < 03427> with the family <01004> of Obededom <05654> in his house <01004> three <07969> months <02320>. And the LORD <03068> blessed <01288> the house <01004> of Obededom <05654>, and all <03605> that he had.

1Chronicles 14

1. Now Hiram <02438> king <04428> of Tyre < 06865> sent <07971> messengers <04397> to David < 01732>, and timber <06086> of cedars <0730>, with masons and carpenters <02796>, to build <01129> him an house < 01004>.

2 And David <01732> perceived <03045> that the LORD <03068> had confirmed <03559> him king <04428> over < 05921> Israel <03478>, for his kingdom <04438> was lifted <05375> up on high <04605>, because <05668> of his people <05971> Israel <03478>.

3 And David <01732> took <03947> more <05750> wives <0802> at Jerusalem <03389>: and David <01732> begat <03205> more <05750> sons <01121> and daughters <01121>.

4 Now these <0428> [are] the names <08034> of [his] children <03205> which <0834> he had <01961> in Jerusalem <03389>; Shammua <08051>, and Shobab <07727>, Nathan <05416>, and Solomon <08010>,

5 And Ibhar <02984>, and Elishua <0474>, and Elpalet <0467>,

6 And Nogah <05052>, and Nepheg <05298>, and Japhia <03309>,

7 And Elishama <0476>, and Beeliada <01182>, and Eliphalet <0467>.

8. And when the Philistines <06430> heard <08085> that David <01732> was anointed <04886> king <04428> over <05921> all <03605> Israel <03478>, all < 03605> the Philistines <06430> went <05927> up to seek < 01245> David <01732>. And David <01732> heard <08085> [of it], and went <03318> out against <06640> them.

9 And the Philistines <06430> came <0935> and spread <06584> themselves in the valley <06010> of Rephaim < 07497>.

10 And David <01732> enquired <07592> of God < 0430>, saying <0559>, Shall I go <05927> up against < 05921> the Philistines <06430>? and wilt thou deliver < 05414> them into mine hand <03027>? And the LORD <03068> said <0559> unto him, Go <05927> up; for I will deliver < 05414> them into thine hand <03027>.

11 So they came <05927> up to Baalperazim <01188>; and David <01732> smote <05221> them there <08033>. Then David <01732> said <0559>, God <0430> hath broken < 06555> in upon mine enemies <0341> by mine hand <03027> like the breaking <06556> forth of waters <04325>: therefore they called <07121> the name <08034> of that place < 04725> Baalperazim <01188>.

12 And when they had left <05800> their gods <0430> there <08033>, David <01732> gave a commandment <0559>, and they were burned <08313> with fire <0784>.

13 And the Philistines <06430> yet <05750> again <03254> spread <06584> themselves abroad <06584> in the valley <06010>.

14 Therefore David <01732> enquired <07592> again <05750> of God <0430>; and God <0430> said <0559> unto him, Go <05927> not up after <0310> them; turn < 05437> away from them, and come <0935> upon them over < 04136> against <04136> the mulberry <01057> trees.

15 And it shall be, when thou shalt hear <08085> a sound <06963> of going <06807> in the tops <07218> of the mulberry <01057> trees, [that] then <0227> thou shalt go < 03318> out to battle <04421>: for God <0430> is gone < 03318> forth <03318> before <06440> thee to smite < 05221> the host <04264> of the Philistines <06430>.

16 David <01732> therefore did <06213> as God < 0430> commanded <06680> him: and they smote <05221> the host <04264> of the Philistines <06430> from Gibeon < 01391> even to Gazer <01507>.

17 And the fame <08034> of David <01732> went < 03318> out into all <03605> lands <0776>; and the LORD < 03068> brought <05414> the fear <06343> of him upon all < 03605> nations <01471>.

1Chronicles 15

1. And [David] made <06213> him houses in the city < 05892> of David <01732>, and prepared <03559> a place < 04725> for the ark <0727> of God <0430>, and pitched < 05186> for it a tent <0168>.

2 Then <0227> David <01732> said <0559>, None <03808> ought to carry <05375> the ark <0727> of God < 0430> but the Levites <03881>: for them hath the LORD < 03068> chosen <0977> to carry <05375> the ark <0727> of God <0430>, and to minister <08334> unto him for ever < 05769>.

3 And David <01732> gathered <06950> all < 03605> Israel <03478> together to Jerusalem <03389>, to bring <05927> up the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> unto his place <04725>, which <0834> he had prepared <03559> for it.

4 And David <01732> assembled <0662> the children <01121> of Aaron <0175>, and the Levites <03881>:

5 Of the sons <01121> of Kohath <06955>; Uriel < 0222> the chief <08269>, and his brethren <0251> an hundred <03967> and twenty <06242>:

6 Of the sons <01121> of Merari <04847>; Asaiah < 06222> the chief <08269>, and his brethren <0251> two hundred <03967> and twenty <06242>:

7 Of the sons <01121> of Gershom <01648>; Joel < 03100> the chief <08269>, and his brethren <0251> an hundred <03967> and thirty <07970>:

8 Of the sons <01121> of Elizaphan <0469>; Shemaiah <08098> the chief <08269>, and his brethren <0251> two hundred <03967>:

9 Of the sons <01121> of Hebron <02275>; Eliel < 0447> the chief <08269>, and his brethren <0251> fourscore <08084>:

10 Of the sons <01121> of Uzziel <05816>; Amminadab <05992> the chief <08269>, and his brethren <0251> an hundred <03967> and twelve.

11 And David <01732> called <07121> 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>,

12 And said <0559> unto them, Ye [are] the chief < 07218> of the fathers <01> of the Levites <03881>: sanctify <06942> yourselves, [both] ye and your brethren <0251>, that ye may bring <05927> up the ark <0727> of the LORD < 03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> unto [the place that] I have prepared <03559> for it.

13 For because <03588> ye [did it] not at the first < 07223>, the LORD <03068> our God <0430> made a breach < 06555> upon us, for that we sought <01875> him not after the due order <04941>.

14 So the priests <03548> and the Levites <03881> sanctified <06942> themselves to bring <05927> up the ark < 0727> of the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> .

15 And the children <01121> of the Levites <03881> bare <05375> the ark <0727> of God <0430> upon their shoulders <03802> with the staves <04133> thereon <05921> , as Moses <04872> commanded <06680> according to the word < 01697> of the LORD <03068>.

16 And David <01732> spake <0559> to the chief < 08269> of the Levites <03881> to appoint <05975> their brethren <0251> [to be] the singers <07891> with instruments <03627> of musick <07892>, psalteries <05035> and harps <03658> and cymbals <04700>, sounding <08085>, by lifting <07311> up the voice <06963> with joy <08057>.

17 So the Levites <03881> appointed <05975> 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>;

18 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 <0465>, and Mikneiah <04737>, and Obededom < 05654>, and Jeiel <03273>, the porters <07778>.

19 So the singers <07891>, Heman <01968>, Asaph < 0623>, and Ethan <0387>, [were appointed] to sound <08085> with cymbals <04700> of brass <05178>;

20 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 <05921> Alamoth < 05961>;

21 And Mattithiah <04993>, and Elipheleh <0465>, and Mikneiah <04737>, and Obededom <05654>, and Jeiel < 03273>, and Azaziah <05812>, with harps <03658> on < 05921> the Sheminith <08067> to excel <05329>.

22 And Chenaniah <03663>, chief <08269> of the Levites <03881>, [was] for song <04853>: he instructed < 03256> about the song <04853>, because <03588> he [was] skilful <0995>.

23 And Berechiah <01296> and Elkanah <0511> [were] doorkeepers <07778> for the ark <0727>.

24 And Shebaniah <07645>, and Jehoshaphat <03046>, and Nethaneel <05417>, and Amasai <06022>, and Zechariah < 02148>, and Benaiah <01141>, and Eliezer <0461>, the priests <03548>, did blow <02690> 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>.

25. So David <01732>, and the elders <02205> of Israel <03478>, and the captains <08269> over thousands < 0505>, went <01980> to bring <05927> up the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068> out of the house <01004> of Obededom <05654> with joy <08057>.

26 And it came <01961> to pass, when God <0430> helped <05826> the Levites <03881> that bare <05375> the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068>, that they offered <02076> seven <07651> bullocks <06499> and seven <07651> rams <0352>.

27 And David <01732> [was] clothed <03736> with a robe <04598> of fine linen <0948>, and all <03605> the Levites <03881> that bare <05375> the ark <0727>, and the singers <07891>, and Chenaniah <03663> the master < 08269> of the song <04853> with the singers <07891>: David <01732> also [had] upon him an ephod <0646> of linen < 0906>.

28 Thus all <03605> Israel <03478> brought < 05927> up 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> with psalteries <05035> and harps <03658>.

29 And it came <01961> to pass, [as] the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068> came <0935> to the city <05892> of David <01732>, that Michal <04324> the daughter <01323> of Saul <07586> looking <08259> out at <01157> a window <02474> saw <07200> king < 04428> David <01732> dancing <07540> and playing < 07832>: and she despised <0959> him in her heart <03820>.

1Chronicles 16

1. So they brought <0935> the ark <0727> of God < 0430>, and set <03322> it in the midst <08432> of the tent <0168> that David <01732> had pitched <05186> for it: and they offered <07126> burnt <05930> sacrifices and peace <08002> offerings before <06440> God <0430>.

2 And when David <01732> had made an end <03615> of offering <05927> the burnt <05930> offerings and the peace < 08002> offerings, he blessed <01288> the people <05971> in the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>.

3 And he dealt <02505> to every <0376> one < 0376> of Israel <03478>, both man <0376> and woman < 0802>, to every <0376> one <0376> a loaf <03603> of bread <03899>, and a good piece <0829> of flesh <0829>, and a flagon <0809> [of wine].

4 And he appointed <05414> [certain] of the Levites < 03881> to minister <08334> before <06440> the ark < 0727> of the LORD <03068>, and to record <02142>, and to thank <03034> and praise <01984> the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>:

5 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 <03627> and with harps <03658>; but Asaph <0623> made a sound <08085> with cymbals <04700>;

6 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>.

7. Then <0227> on that day <03117> David < 01732> delivered <05414> first <07218> [this psalm] to thank <03034> the LORD <03068> into the hand <03027> of Asaph <0623> and his brethren <0251>.

8 Give thanks <03034> unto the LORD <03068>, call <07121> upon his name <08034>, make known <03045> his deeds <05949> among the people <05971>.

9 Sing <07891> unto him, sing <07891> psalms < 02167> unto him, talk <07878> ye of all <03605> his wondrous <06381> works.

10 Glory <01984> ye in his holy <06944> name < 08034>: let the heart <03820> of them rejoice <08055> that seek <01245> the LORD <03068>.

11 Seek <01875> the LORD <03068> and his strength <05797>, seek <01245> his face <06440> continually < 08548>.

12 Remember <02142> his marvellous <06381> works that he hath done <06213>, his wonders <04159>, and the judgments <04941> of his mouth <06310>;

13 O ye seed <02233> of Israel <03478> his servant <05650>, ye children <01121> of Jacob <03290>, his chosen <0972> ones.

14 He [is] the LORD <03068> our God <0430>; his judgments <04941> [are] in all <03605> the earth <0776>.

15 Be ye mindful <02142> always <05769> of his covenant <01285>; the word <01697> [which <0834>] he commanded <06680> to a thousand <0505> generations < 01755>;

16 [Even of the covenant <01285>] which <0834> he made <03772> with Abraham <085>, and of his oath <07621> unto Isaac <03327>;

17 And hath confirmed <05975> the same to Jacob < 03290> for a law <02706>, [and] to Israel <03478> [for] an everlasting <05769> covenant <01285>,

18 Saying <0559>, Unto thee will I give <05414> the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>, the lot <02256> of your inheritance <05159>;

19 When ye were but few <04962>, even a few <04592>, and strangers <01481> in it.

20 And [when] they went <01980> from nation <01471> to nation <01471>, and from [one] kingdom <04467> to another <0312> people <05971>;

21 He suffered <03240> no <03808> man <0376> to do them wrong <06231>: yea, he reproved <03198> kings < 04428> for their sakes <05921>,

22 [Saying], Touch <05060> not mine anointed <04899> , and do my prophets <05030> no <0408> harm <07489>.

23 Sing <07891> unto the LORD <03068>, all < 03605> the earth <0776>; shew <01319> forth <01319> from day <03117> to day <03117> his salvation <03444>.

24 Declare <05608> his glory <03519> among the heathen <01471>; his marvellous <06381> works among all < 03605> nations <05971>.

25 For great <01419> [is] the LORD <03068>, and greatly <03966> to be praised <01984>: he also [is] to be feared <03372> above <05921> all <03605> gods < 0430>.

26 For all <03605> the gods <0430> of the people <05971> [are] idols <0457>: but the LORD <03068> made <06213> the heavens <08064>.

27 Glory <01935> and honour <01926> [are] in his presence <06440>; strength <05797> and gladness <02304> [are] in his place <04725>.

28 Give <03051> unto the LORD <03068>, ye kindreds <04940> of the people <05971>, give <03051> unto the LORD <03068> glory <03519> and strength <05797>.

29 Give <03051> unto the LORD <03068> the glory < 03519> [due] unto his name <08034>: bring <05375> an offering <04503>, and come <0935> before <06440> him: worship <07812> the LORD <03068> in the beauty <01927> of holiness <06944>.

30 Fear <02342> before <06440> him, all < 03605> the earth <0776>: the world <08398> also <0637> shall be stable <03559>, that it be not moved <04131>.

31 Let the heavens <08064> be glad <08056>, and let the earth <0776> rejoice <01523>: and let [men] say < 0559> among the nations <01471>, The LORD <03068> reigneth <04427>.

32 Let the sea <03220> roar <07481>, and the fulness <04393> thereof: let the fields <07704> rejoice < 05970>, and all <03605> that [is] therein.

33 Then <0227> shall the trees <06086> of the wood <03293> sing <07442> out at the presence <06440> of the LORD <03068>, because <03588> he cometh <0935> to judge <08199> the earth <0776>.

34 O give thanks <03034> unto the LORD <03068>; for [he is] good <02896>; for his mercy <02617> [endureth] for ever <05769>.

35 And say <0559> ye, Save <03467> us, O God < 0430> of our salvation <03468>, and gather <06908> us together, and deliver <05337> us from the heathen <01471>, that we may give thanks <03034> to thy holy <06944> name < 08034>, [and] glory <07623> in thy praise <08416>.

36 Blessed <01288> [be] the LORD <03068> God < 0430> of Israel <03478> for ever <05769> and ever. And all <03605> the people <05971> said <0559>, Amen <0543> , and praised <01984> the LORD <03068>.

37. So he left <05800> there <08033> before < 06440> the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068> Asaph <0623> and his brethren <0251>, to minister <08334> before <06440> the ark <0727> continually <08548>, as every day's <03117> work <01697> required <03117>:

38 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>:

39 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 < 01116> place that [was] at Gibeon <01391>,

40 To offer <05927> burnt <05930> offerings unto the LORD <03068> upon the altar <04196> of the burnt < 05930> offering continually <08548> morning <01242> and evening <06153>, and [to do] according to all <03605> that is written <03789> in the law <08451> of the LORD <03068>, which <0834> he commanded <06680> Israel <03478>;

41 And with them Heman <01968> and Jeduthun <03038>, and the rest <07605> that were chosen <01305>, who < 0834> were expressed <05344> by name <08034>, to give thanks <03034> to the LORD <03068>, because <03588> his mercy <02617> [endureth] for ever <05769>;

42 And with them Heman <01968> and Jeduthun <03038> with trumpets <02689> and cymbals <04700> for those that should make a sound <08085>, and with musical <07892> instruments <03627> of God <0430>. And the sons <01121> of Jeduthun <03038> [were] porters <08179>.

43 And all <03605> the people <05971> departed < 03212> every man <0376> to his house <01004>: and David < 01732> returned <05437> to bless <01288> his house < 01004>.

1Chronicles 17

1. Now it came <01961> to pass, as David <01732> sat <03427> in his house <01004>, that David <01732> said <0559> to Nathan <05416> the prophet <05030>, Lo < 02009>, I dwell <03427> in an house <01004> of cedars < 0730>, but the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068> [remaineth] under <08478> curtains <03407>.

2 Then Nathan <05416> said <0559> unto David < 01732>, Do <06213> all <03605> that [is] in thine heart < 03824>; for God <0430> [is] with thee.

3 And it came <01961> to pass the same <01931> night <03915>, that the word <01697> of God <0430> came <0935> to Nathan <05416>, saying <0559>,

4 Go <03212> and tell <0559> David <01732> my servant <05650>, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD < 03068>, Thou shalt not build <01129> me an house <01004> to dwell <03427> in:

5 For I have not dwelt <03427> in an house <01004> since <04480> the day <03117> that I brought <05927> up Israel <03478> unto this <02088> day <03117>; but have gone <01961> from tent <0168> to tent <0168>, and from [one] tabernacle <04908> [to another].

6 Wheresoever I have walked <01980> with all <03605> Israel <03478>, spake <01696> I a word <01697> to any <0259> of the judges <08199> of Israel <03478>, whom < 0834> I commanded <06680> to feed <07462> my people < 05971>, saying <0559>, Why <04100> have ye not built < 01129> me an house <01004> of cedars <0730>?

7 Now <06258> therefore thus <03541> shalt thou say <0559> unto my servant <05650> David <01732>, Thus < 03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, I took <03947> thee from the sheepcote <05116>, [even] from following <0310> the sheep <06629>, that thou shouldest be ruler <05057> over <05921> my people <05971> Israel < 03478>:

8 And I have been <01961> with thee whithersoever thou hast walked, and have cut <03772> off all <03605> thine enemies <0341> from before <06440> thee, and have made < 06213> thee a name <08034> like the name <08034> of the great <01419> men that [are] in the earth <0776>.

9 Also I will ordain <07760> a place <04725> for my people <05971> Israel <03478>, and will plant <05193> them, and they shall dwell <07931> in their place <08478>, and shall be moved <07264> no <03808> more <05750>; neither <03808> shall the children <01121> of wickedness <05766> waste <01086> them any more <03254>, as at the beginning < 07223>,

10 And since the time <03117> that I commanded < 06680> judges <08199> [to be] over <05921> my people < 05971> Israel <03478>. Moreover I will subdue <03665> all <03605> thine enemies <0341>. Furthermore I tell <05046> thee that the LORD <03068> will build <01129> thee an house <01004>.

11 And it shall come <01961> to pass, when <03588> thy days <03117> be expired <04390> that thou must go < 03212> [to be] with thy fathers <01>, that I will raise < 06965> up thy seed <02233> after <0310> thee, which < 0834> shall be of thy sons <01121>; and I will establish < 03559> his kingdom <04438>.

12 He shall build <01129> me an house <01004>, and I will stablish <03559> his throne <03678> for ever < 05769>.

13 I will be his father <025>, and he shall be my son < 01121>: and I will not take <05493> my mercy <02617> away <05493> from him, as I took <05493> [it] from [him] that was before <06440> thee:

14 But I will settle <05975> him in mine house < 01004> and in my kingdom <04438> for ever <05769>: and his throne <03678> shall be established <03559> for evermore < 05769>.

15 According to all <03605> these <0428> words < 01697>, and according to all <03605> this <02088> vision <02377>, so <03651> did Nathan <05416> speak < 01696> unto David <01732>.

16. And David <01732> the king <04428> came < 0935> and sat <03427> before <06440> the LORD <03068>, and said <0559>, Who <04310> [am] I, O LORD <03068> God <0430>, and what <04310> [is] mine house <01004>, that thou hast brought <0935> me hitherto <01988>?

17 And [yet] this <02063> was a small <06994> thing in thine eyes <05869>, O God <0430>; for thou hast [also] spoken <01696> of thy servant's <05650> house <01004> for a great <07350> while to come, and hast regarded <07200> me according to the estate <08448> of a man <0120> of high < 04608> degree, O LORD <03068> God <0430>.

18 What <04100> can David <01732> [speak] more to thee for the honour <03519> of thy servant <05650>? for thou knowest <03045> thy servant <05650>.

19 O LORD <03068>, for thy servant's <05650> sake <04616>, and according to thine own heart <03820>, hast thou done <06213> all <03605> this <02063> greatness < 01420>, in making known <03045> all <03605> [these] great <01420> things.

20 O LORD <03068>, [there is] none <0369> like < 03644> thee, neither <0369> [is there any] God <0430> beside <02108> thee, according to all <03605> that we have heard <08085> with our ears <0241>.

21 And what <04310> one <0259> nation <01471> in the earth <0776> [is] like thy people <05971> Israel < 03478>, whom <0834> God <0430> went <01980> to redeem <06299> [to be] his own people <05971>, to make <07760> thee a name <08034> of greatness <01420> and terribleness < 03372>, by driving <01644> out nations <01471> from before <06440> thy people <05971>, whom <0834> thou hast redeemed <06299> out of Egypt <04714>?

22 For thy people <05971> Israel <03478> didst thou make <05414> thine own people <05971> for ever <05769>; and thou, LORD <03068>, becamest <01961> their God <0430> .

23 Therefore now <06258>, LORD <03068>, let the thing <01697> that thou hast spoken <01696> concerning < 05921> thy servant <05650> and concerning <05921> his house <01004> be established <0539> for ever <05769>, and do <06213> as thou hast said <01696>.

24 Let it even be established <0539>, that thy name < 08034> may be magnified <01431> for ever <05769>, saying <0559>, 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> before < 06440> thee.

25 For thou, O my God <0430>, hast told <01540> thy servant <05650> that thou wilt build <01129> him an house < 01004>: therefore thy servant <05650> hath found <04672> [in his heart] to pray <06419> before <06440> thee.

26 And now <06258>, LORD <03068>, thou art God < 0430>, and hast promised <01696> this <02063> goodness < 02896> unto thy servant <05650>:

27 Now <06258> therefore let it please <02894> thee to bless <01288> the house <01004> of thy servant <05650> , that it may be before <06440> thee for ever <05769>: for thou blessest <01288>, O LORD <03068>, and [it shall be] blessed <01288> for ever <05769>.

1Chronicles 18

1. Now after <0310> this <03651> it came < 01961> to pass, that David <01732> smote <05221> the Philistines <06430>, and subdued <03665> them, and took < 03947> Gath <01661> and her towns <01323> out of the hand <03027> of the Philistines <06430>.

2 And he smote <05221> Moab <04124>; and the Moabites <04124> became <01961> David's <01732> servants <05650>, [and] brought <05375> gifts <04503>.

3 And David <01732> smote <05221> Hadarezer < 01928> king <04428> of Zobah <06678> unto Hamath < 02574>, as he went <03212> to stablish <05324> his dominion <03027> by the river <05104> Euphrates <06578>.

4 And David <01732> took <03920> from him a thousand <0505> chariots <07393>, and seven <07651> thousand <0505> horsemen <06571>, and twenty <06242> thousand <0505> footmen: David <01732> also houghed < 06131> all <03605> the chariot <07393> [horses], but reserved <03498> of them an hundred <03967> chariots < 07393>.

5 And when the Syrians <0758> of Damascus <01834> came <0935> to help <05826> Hadarezer <01928> king < 04428> of Zobah <06678>, David <01732> slew <05221> of the Syrians <0758> two <08147> and twenty <06242> thousand <0505> men <0376>.

6 Then David <01732> put <07760> [garrisons] in Syriadamascus; and the Syrians <0758> became <01961> David's <01732> servants <05650>, [and] brought <05375> gifts <04503>. Thus the LORD <03068> preserved <03467> David <01732> whithersoever he went <01980>.

7 And David <01732> took <03947> the shields < 07982> of gold <02091> that were on <05921> the servants <05650> of Hadarezer <01928>, and brought <0935> them to Jerusalem <03389>.

8 Likewise from Tibhath <02880>, and from Chun < 03560>, cities <05892> of Hadarezer <01928>, brought < 03947> David <01732> very <03966> much <07227> brass <05178>, wherewith Solomon <08010> made <06213> the brasen <05178> sea <03220>, and the pillars <05982>, and the vessels <03627> of brass <05178>.

9. Now when Tou <08583> king <04428> of Hamath < 02574> heard <08085> how David <01732> had smitten < 05221> all <03605> the host <02428> of Hadarezer < 01928> king <04428> of Zobah <06678>;

10 He sent <07971> Hadoram <01913> his son < 01121> to king <04428> David <01732>, to enquire < 07592> of his welfare <07965>, and to congratulate <01288> him, because he had fought <03898> against Hadarezer <01928>, and smitten <05221> him; (for Hadarezer <01928> had < 01961> war <04421> with Tou <08583>;) and [with him] all <03605> manner of vessels <03627> of gold <02091> and silver <03701> and brass <05178>.

11 Them also <01571> king <04428> David < 01732> dedicated <06942> unto the LORD <03068>, with the silver <03701> and the gold <02091> that he brought < 05375> from all <03605> [these] nations <01471>; from Edom <0123>, and from Moab <04124>, and from the children < 01121> of Ammon <05983>, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek <06002>.

12 Moreover Abishai <052> the son <01121> of Zeruiah <06870> slew <05221> of the Edomites <0130> in the valley <01516> of salt <04417> eighteen thousand < 0505>.

13 And he put <07760> garrisons <05333> in Edom < 0123>; and all <03605> the Edomites <0130> became < 01961> David's <01732> servants <05650>. Thus the LORD < 03068> preserved <03467> David <01732> whithersoever he went <01980>.

14 So David <01732> reigned <04427> over < 05921> all <03605> Israel <03478>, and executed < 06213> judgment <04941> and justice <06666> among all < 03605> his people <05971>.

15 And Joab <03097> the son <01121> of Zeruiah < 06870> [was] over <05921> the host <06635>; and Jehoshaphat <03092> the son <01121> of Ahilud <0286>, recorder < 02142>.

16 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>;

17 And Benaiah <01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada <03111> [was] over <05921> the Cherethites <03774> and the Pelethites <06432>; and the sons <01121> of David < 01732> [were] chief <07223> about the king <04428>.

1Chronicles 19

1. Now it came <01961> to pass after <0310> this < 03651>, that Nahash <05176> the king <04428> of the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> died <04191>, and his son <01121> reigned <04427> in his stead <08478>.

2 And David <01732> said <0559>, I will shew < 06213> kindness <02617> unto Hanun <02586> the son < 01121> of Nahash <05176>, because <03588> his father < 025> shewed <06213> kindness <02617> to me. And David < 01732> sent <07971> messengers <04397> to comfort < 05162> him concerning <05921> his father <025>. So the servants <05650> of David <01732> came <0935> into < 0413> the land <0776> of the children <01121> of Ammon < 05983> to Hanun <02586>, to comfort <05162> him.

3 But the princes <08269> of the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> said <0559> to Hanun <02586>, Thinkest <05869> thou that David <01732> doth honour <03513> thy father <025>, that he hath sent <07971> comforters < 05162> unto thee? are not his servants <05650> come <0935> unto thee for to search <02713>, and to overthrow <02015>, and to spy <07200> out the land <0776>?

4 Wherefore Hanun <02586> took <03947> David's < 01732> servants <05650>, and shaved <01548> them, and cut <03772> off their garments <04063> in the midst <02677> hard by their buttocks <04667>, and sent <07971> them away.

5 Then there went <03212> [certain], and told < 05046> David <01732> how the men <0582> were served. And he sent <07971> to meet <07125> them: for the men <0582> were greatly <03966> ashamed <03637>. And the king < 04428> said <0559>, Tarry <03427> at Jericho <03405> until <05704> your beards <02206> be grown <06779>, and [then] return <07725>.

6. And when the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> saw <07200> that they had made themselves odious <0887> to David <01732>, Hanun <02586> and the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> sent <07971> a thousand <0505> talents < 03603> of silver <03701> to hire <07936> them chariots < 07393> and horsemen <06571> out of Mesopotamia <0763>, and out of Syriamaachah <0758>, and out of Zobah <06678>.

7 So they hired <07936> thirty <07970> and two < 08147> thousand <0505> chariots <07393>, and the king < 04428> of Maachah <04601> and his people <05971>; who came <0935> and pitched <02583> before <06440> Medeba < 04311>. And the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> gathered <0622> themselves together from their cities <05892>, and came <0935> to battle <04421>.

8 And when David <01732> heard <08085> [of it], he sent <07971> Joab <03097>, and all <03605> the host < 06635> of the mighty <01368> men.

9 And the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> came <03318> out, and put the battle <04421> in array <06186> before the gate <06607> of the city <05892>: and the kings < 04428> that were come <0935> [were] by themselves <0905> in the field <07704>.

10 Now when Joab <03097> saw <07200> that the battle <04421> was set against <0413> him before <06440> and behind <0268>, he chose <0977> out of all <03605> the choice <0970> of Israel <03478>, and put [them] in array <06186> against <07125> the Syrians <0758>.

11 And the rest <03499> of the people <05971> he delivered <05414> unto the hand <03027> of Abishai <052> his brother <0251>, and they set [themselves] in array <06186> against <07125> the children <01121> of Ammon <05983>.

12 And he said <0559>, If <0518> the Syrians < 0758> be too strong <02388> for me, then thou shalt help < 08668> me: but if <0518> the children <01121> of Ammon < 05983> be too strong <02388> for thee, then I will help < 03467> thee.

13 Be of good courage <02388>, and let us behave < 02388> ourselves valiantly <02388> for our people <05971>, and for the cities <05892> of our God <0430>: and let the LORD <03068> do <06213> [that which is] good <02896> in his sight <05869>.

14 So Joab <03097> and the people <05971> that [were] with him drew nigh <05066> before <06440> the Syrians <0758> unto the battle <04421>; and they fled <05127> before <06440> him.

15 And when the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> saw <07200> that the Syrians <0758> were fled <05127>, they likewise <01571> fled <05127> before <06440> Abishai <052> his brother <0251>, and entered <0935> into the city <05892>. Then Joab <03097> came <0935> to Jerusalem <03389>.

16 And when the Syrians <0758> saw <07200> that they were put to the worse <05062> before <06440> Israel < 03478>, they sent <07971> messengers <04397>, and drew < 03318> forth <03318> 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.

17 And it was told <05046> David <01732>; and he gathered <0622> all <03605> Israel <03478>, and passed <05674> over <05674> Jordan <03383>, and came < 0935> upon them, and set [the battle] in array <06186> against <0413> them. So when David <01732> had put the battle < 04421> in array <06186> against <07125> the Syrians < 0758>, they fought <03898> with him.

18 But the Syrians <0758> fled <05127> before < 06440> Israel <03478>; and David <01732> slew <02026> of the Syrians <0758> seven <07651> thousand <0505> [men which fought in] chariots <07393>, and forty <0705> thousand <0505> footmen, and killed <04191> Shophach <07780> the captain <08269> of the host <06635>.

19 And when the servants <05650> of Hadarezer < 01928> saw <07200> that they were put to the worse <05062> before <06440> Israel <03478>, they made peace <07999> with David <01732>, and became <05647> his servants < 05647>: neither <03808> would <014> the Syrians <0758> help <03467> the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> any more <05750>.

1Chronicles 20

1. And it came <01961> to pass, that after <06256> the year <08141> was expired <08666>, at the time <06256> that kings <04428> go <03318> out [to battle], Joab < 03097> led <05090> forth the power <02428> of the army < 06635>, and wasted <07843> the country <0776> of the children <01121> of Ammon <05983>, and came <0935> and besieged <06696> Rabbah <07237>. But David <01732> tarried <03427> at Jerusalem <03389>. And Joab <03097> smote <05221> Rabbah <07237>, and destroyed <02040> it.

2 And David <01732> took <03947> the crown < 05850> of their king <04428> from off <05921> his head < 07218>, and found <04672> 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> also exceeding <03966> much <07235> spoil <07998> out of the city <05892>.

3 And he brought <03318> out the people <05971> that [were] in it, and cut <07787> [them] with saws <04050>, and with harrows <02757> of iron <01270>, and with axes < 04050>. Even so <03651> dealt <06213> David <01732> with all <03605> the cities <05892> of the children < 01121> of Ammon <05983>. And David <01732> and all < 03605> the people <05971> returned <07725> to Jerusalem < 03389>.

4. And it came <01961> to pass after <0310> this < 03651>, that there arose <05975> war <04421> at Gezer < 01507> with the Philistines <06430>; at which <0227> time <0227> Sibbechai <05444> the Hushathite <02843> slew < 05221> Sippai <05598>, [that was] of the children <03211> of the giant <07497>: and they were subdued <03665>.

5 And there was war <04421> again <05750> with the Philistines <06430>; and Elhanan <0445> the son <01121> of Jair <02971> slew <05221> Lahmi <03902> the brother <0251> of Goliath <01555> the Gittite <01663>, whose spear <02595> staff <06086> [was] like a weaver's <0707> beam <04500>.

6 And yet <05750> again <05750> 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 <01571> was the son <03025> of the giant <07497>.

7 But when he defied <02778> Israel <03478>, Jonathan <03083> the son <01121> of Shimea <08092> David's <01732> brother <0251> slew <05221> him.

8 These <0411> were born <03205> unto the giant < 07497> in Gath <01661>; and they fell <05307> by the hand <03027> of David <01732>, and by the hand <03027> of his servants <05650>.

1Chronicles 21

1. And Satan <07854> stood <05975> up against < 05921> Israel <03478>, and provoked <05496> David < 01732> to number <04487> Israel <03478>.

2 And David <01732> said <0559> to Joab < 03097> and to the rulers <08269> of the people <05971>, Go <03212>, number <05608> Israel <03478> from Beersheba <0884> even to Dan <01835>; and bring <0935> the number <04557> of them to me, that I may know <03045> [it].

3 And Joab <03097> answered <0559>, The LORD < 03068> make his people <05971> an hundred <03967> times < 06471> so <01992> many more <03254> as they [be]: but, my lord <0113> the king <04428>, [are] they not all <03605> my lord's <0113> servants <05650>? why <04100> then doth my lord <0113> require <01245> this <02063> thing? why will he be a cause of trespass <0819> to Israel <03478>?

4 Nevertheless the king's <04428> word <01697> prevailed <02388> against <05921> Joab <03097>. Wherefore Joab <03097> departed <03318>, and went <01980> throughout all <03605> Israel <03478>, and came <0935> to Jerusalem <03389>.

5 And Joab <03097> gave <05414> the sum < 04557> of the number <0466> of the people <05971> unto David <01732>. And all <03605> [they of] Israel <03478> were a thousand <0505> thousand <0505> and an hundred < 03967> thousand <0505> men <0376> that drew <08025> sword <02719>: and Judah <03063> [was] four <0702> hundred <03967> threescore <07657> and ten thousand < 0505> men <0376> that drew <08025> sword <02719>.

6 But Levi <03878> and Benjamin <01144> counted < 06485> he not among <08432> them: for the king's <04428> word <01697> was abominable <08581> to Joab <03097>.

7. And God <0430> was displeased with this <02088> thing <01697>; therefore he smote <05221> Israel <03478>.

8 And David <01732> said <0559> unto God < 0430>, I have sinned <02398> greatly <03966>, because < 0834> I have done <06213> this <02088> thing <01697>: but now <06258>, I beseech <04994> thee, do <05674> away <05674> the iniquity <05771> of thy servant <05650>; for I have done very <03966> foolishly <05528>.

9 And the LORD <03068> spake <01696> unto Gad < 01410>, David's <01732> seer <02374>, saying <0559>,

10 Go <03212> and tell <01696> David <01732>, saying <0559>, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD < 03068>, I offer <05186> thee three <07969> [things]: choose <0977> thee one <0259> of them, that I may do <06213> [it] unto thee.

11 So Gad <01410> came <0935> to David <01732> , and said <0559> unto him, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>, Choose <06901> thee

12 Either <0518> three <07969> years <08141>' famine <07458>; or three <07969> months <02320> to be destroyed <05595> before <06440> thy foes <06862>, while <02193> that the sword <02719> of thine enemies <0341> overtaketh <05381> [thee]; or else <0518> 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> throughout all <03605> the coasts <01366> of Israel <03478>. Now <06258> therefore advise <07200> thyself what <04100> word <01697> I shall bring <07725> again <07725> to him that sent <07971> me.

13 And David <01732> said <0559> unto Gad < 01410>, I am in a great <03966> strait <06887>: let me fall <05307> now <04994> into the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068>; for very <03966> great <07227> [are] his mercies <07356>: but let me not fall <05307> into the hand < 03027> of man <0120>.

14 So the LORD <03068> sent <05414> pestilence < 01698> upon Israel <03478>: and there fell <05307> of Israel <03478> seventy <07657> thousand <0505> men < 0376>.

15 And God <0430> sent <07971> an angel < 04397> unto Jerusalem <03389> to destroy <07843> it: and as he was destroying <07843>, the LORD <03068> beheld < 07200>, and he repented <05162> him of the evil <07451>, and said <0559> to the angel <04397> that destroyed < 07843>, It is enough <07227>, stay <07503> now <06258> thine hand <03027>. And the angel <04397> of the LORD < 03068> stood <05975> by the threshingfloor <01637> of Ornan <0771> the Jebusite <02983>.

16 And David <01732> lifted <05375> up his eyes < 05869>, and saw <07200> the angel <04397> of the LORD < 03068> stand <05975> between <0996> the earth <0776> and the heaven <08064>, having a drawn <08025> sword < 02719> in his hand <03027> stretched <05186> out over < 05921> Jerusalem <03389>. Then David <01732> and the elders <02205> [of Israel, who were] clothed <03680> in sackcloth < 08242>, fell <05307> upon their faces <06440>.

17 And David <01732> said <0559> unto God < 0430>, [Is it] not I [that] commanded <0559> the people < 05971> to be numbered <04487>? even I it is that have sinned < 02398> and done evil <07489> indeed; but [as for] these < 0428> sheep <06629>, what <04100> have they done < 06213>? let thine hand <03027>, I pray <04994> 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>.

18. Then the angel <04397> of the LORD <03068> commanded <0559> Gad <01410> to say <0559> to David < 01732>, that David <01732> should go <05927> up, and set <06965> up an altar <04196> unto the LORD <03068> in the threshingfloor <01637> of Ornan <0771> the Jebusite < 02983>.

19 And David <01732> went <05927> up at the saying <01697> of Gad <01410>, which <0834> he spake < 01696> in the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>.

20 And Ornan <0771> turned <07725> back < 07725>, and saw <07200> the angel <04397>; and his four < 0702> sons <01121> with him hid <02244> themselves. Now Ornan <0771> was threshing <01758> wheat <02406>.

21 And as David <01732> came <0935> to Ornan < 0771>, Ornan <0771> looked <05027> and saw <07200> David <01732>, and went <03318> out of the threshingfloor < 01637>, and bowed <07812> himself to David <01732> with [his] face <0639> to the ground <0776>.

22 Then David <01732> said <0559> to Ornan < 0771>, Grant <05414> me the place <04725> of [this] threshingfloor <01637>, that I may build <01129> an altar < 04196> therein unto the LORD <03068>: thou shalt grant < 05414> it me for the full <04392> price <03701>: that the plague <04046> may be stayed <06113> from the people < 05971>.

23 And Ornan <0771> said <0559> unto David < 01732>, Take <03947> [it] to thee, and let my lord <03068> the king <04428> do <06213> [that which is] good <02896> in his eyes <05869>: lo <07200>, I give <05414> [thee] the oxen <01241> [also] for burnt <05930> offerings, and the threshing <04173> instruments for wood <06086>, and the wheat <02406> for the meat offering <04503>; I give <05414> it all <03605>.

24 And king <04428> David <01732> said <0559> to Ornan <0771>, Nay <03808>; but I will verily <07069> buy <07069> it for the full <04392> price <03701>: for I will not take <05375> [that] which <0834> [is] thine for the LORD <03068>, nor offer <05927> burnt <05930> offerings without <02600> cost <02600>.

25 So David <01732> gave <05414> to Ornan < 0771> for the place <04725> six <08337> hundred < 03967> shekels <08255> of gold <02091> by weight < 04948>.

26 And David <01732> built <01129> there < 08033> an altar <04196> unto the LORD <03068>, and offered <05927> burnt <05930> offerings and peace <08002> offerings, and called <07121> upon the LORD <03068>; and he answered <06030> him from heaven <08064> by fire <0784> upon the altar <04196> of burnt <05930> offering.

27 And the LORD <03068> commanded <0559> the angel <04397>; and he put <07725> up his sword <02719> again <07725> into <0413> the sheath <05084> thereof.

28 At that time <06256> when David <01732> saw < 07200> that the LORD <03068> had answered <06030> him in the threshingfloor <01637> of Ornan <0771> the Jebusite < 02983>, then he sacrificed <02076> there <08033>.

29 For the tabernacle <04908> of the LORD <03068>, which <0834> Moses <04872> made <06213> in the wilderness <04057>, and the altar <04196> of the burnt < 05930> offering, [were] at that season <06256> in the high < 01116> place at Gibeon <01391>.

30 But David <01732> could <03201> not go < 03212> before <06440> it to enquire <01875> of God < 0430>: for he was afraid <01204> because <06440> of the sword <02719> of the angel <04397> of the LORD <03068>.

1Chronicles 22

1. Then David <01732> said <0559>, This <02088> [is] the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> God <0430>, and this <02088> [is] the altar <04196> of the burnt < 05930> offering for Israel <03478>.

2 And David <01732> commanded <0559> to gather < 03664> together the strangers <01616> that [were] in the land < 0776> of Israel <03478>; and he set <05975> masons < 02672> to hew <02672> wrought <01496> stones <068> to build <01129> the house <01004> of God <0430>.

3 And David <01732> prepared <03559> 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>;

4 Also cedar <0730> trees <06086> in abundance: for the Zidonians <06722> and they of Tyre <06876> brought < 0935> much <07230> cedar <0730> wood <06086> to David <01732>.

5 And David <01732> said <0559>, Solomon < 08010> my son <01121> [is] young <05288> and tender < 07390>, and the house <01004> [that is] to be builded < 01129> for the LORD <03068> [must be] exceeding <04605> magnifical <01431>, of fame <08034> and of glory <08597> throughout all <03605> countries <0776>: I will [therefore] now <04994> make preparation <03559> for it. So David < 01732> prepared <03559> abundantly <07230> before < 06440> his death <04194>.

6. Then he called <07121> for Solomon <08010> his son <01121>, and charged <06680> him to build <01129> an house <01004> for the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>.

7 And David <01732> said <0559> to Solomon < 08010>, My son <01121>, as for me, it was in my mind <03824> to build <01129> an house <01004> unto the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> my God <0430>:

8 But the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came < 01961> to me, saying <0559>, Thou hast shed <08210> blood <01818> abundantly <07230>, and hast made <06213> great <01419> wars <04421>: thou shalt not build <01129> an house <01004> unto my name <08034>, because <03588> thou hast shed <08210> much <07227> blood <01818> upon the earth <0776> in my sight <06440>.

9 Behold <02009>, a son <01121> shall be born < 03205> to thee, who <01931> shall be a man <0376> of rest <04496>; and I will give him rest <05117> from all < 03605> his enemies <0341> round <05439> about: for his name <08034> shall be Solomon <08010>, and I will give <05414> peace <07965> and quietness <08253> unto Israel <03478> in his days <03117>.

10 He shall build <01129> an house <01004> for my name <08034>; and he shall be my son <01121>, and I [will be] his father <025>; and I will establish <03559> the throne < 03678> of his kingdom <04438> over <05921> Israel < 03478> for ever <05769>.

11 Now <06258>, my son <01121>, the LORD < 03068> be with thee; and prosper <06743> thou, and build < 01129> the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> thy God < 0430>, as he hath said <01696> of thee.

12 Only the LORD <03068> give <05414> thee wisdom <07922> and understanding <0998>, and give thee charge < 06680> concerning <05921> Israel <03478>, that thou mayest keep <08104> the law <08451> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>.

13 Then <0227> shalt thou prosper <06743>, if < 0518> thou takest <08104> heed <08104> to fulfil < 06213> the statutes <02706> and judgments <04941> which < 0834> the LORD <03068> charged <06680> Moses <04872> with concerning <05921> Israel <03478>: be strong <02388> , and of good courage <0553>; dread <03372> not, nor < 0408> be dismayed <02865>.

14 Now, behold <02009>, in my trouble <06040> I have prepared <03559> 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 <0369> weight <04948>; for it is in abundance <07230>: timber <06086> also and stone <068> have I prepared <03559>; and thou mayest add < 03254> thereto <05921>.

15 Moreover [there are] workmen with thee in abundance < 07230>, hewers <02672> and workers <02796> of stone < 068> and timber <06086>, and all <03605> manner of cunning <02450> men for every <03605> manner of work <04399>.

16 Of the gold <02091>, the silver <03701>, and the brass <05178>, and the iron <01270>, [there is] no <0369> number <04557>. Arise <06965> [therefore], and be doing < 06213>, and the LORD <03068> be with thee.

17. David <01732> also commanded <06680> all < 03605> the princes <08269> of Israel <03478> to help < 05826> Solomon <08010> his son <01121>, [saying],

18 [Is] not the LORD <03068> your God <0430> with you? and hath he [not] given you rest <03499> on every <05437> side <05439>? for he hath given <05414> the inhabitants < 03427> of the land <0776> into mine hand <03027>; and the land <0776> is subdued <03533> before <06440> the LORD <03068>, and before <06440> his people <05971>.

19 Now <06258> set <05414> your heart <03824> and your soul <05315> to seek <01875> the LORD <03068> your God <0430>; arise <06965> therefore, and build < 01129> ye the sanctuary <04720> of the LORD <03068> God < 0430>, to bring <0935> 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> to the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>.

1Chronicles 23

1. So when David <01732> was old <02204> and full <07646> of days <03117>, he made Solomon <08010> his son <01121> king <04427> over <05921> Israel <03478>.

2 And he gathered <0622> together all <03605> the princes <08269> of Israel <03478>, with the priests < 03548> and the Levites <03881>.

3 Now the Levites <03881> were numbered <05608> from the age <01121> of thirty <07970> years <08141> and upward <04605>: and their number <04557> by their polls < 01538>, man <0376> by man <01397>, was thirty <07970> and eight <08083> thousand <0505>.

4 Of which <0428>, twenty <06242> and four < 0702> thousand <0505> [were] to set <05329> forward < 05921> the work <04399> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>; and six <08337> thousand <0505> [were] officers <07860> and judges <08199>:

5 Moreover four <0702> thousand <0505> [were] porters <07778>; and four <0702> thousand <0505> praised <01984> the LORD <03068> with the instruments <03627> which <0834> I made <06213>, [said David <01732>], to praise <01984> [therewith].

6 And David <01732> divided <02505> them into courses <04256> among the sons <01121> of Levi <03878>, [namely], Gershon <01647>, Kohath <06955>, and Merari < 04847>.

7 Of the Gershonites <01649> [were], Laadan <03936>, and Shimei <08096>.

8 The sons <01121> of Laadan <03936>; the chief < 07218> [was] Jehiel <03171>, and Zetham <02241>, and Joel <03100>, three <07969>.

9 The sons <01121> of Shimei <08096>; Shelomith < 08013>, and Haziel <02381>, and Haran <02039>, three < 07969>. These <0428> [were] the chief <07218> of the fathers <01> of Laadan <03936>.

10 And the sons <01121> of Shimei <08096> [were], Jahath <03189>, Zina, and Jeush <03266>, and Beriah < 01283>. These <0428> four <0702> [were] the sons < 01121> of Shimei <08096>.

11 And Jahath <03189> was the chief <07218>, and Zizah the second <08145>: but Jeush <03266> and Beriah < 01283> had not many <07235> sons <01121>; therefore they were in one <0259> reckoning <06486>, according to [their] father's <01> house <01004>.

12 The sons <01121> of Kohath <06955>; Amram < 06019>, Izhar <03324>, Hebron <02275>, and Uzziel < 05816>, four <0702>.

13 The sons <01121> of Amram <06019>; Aaron < 0175> and Moses <04872>: and Aaron <0175> was separated < 0914>, that he should sanctify <06942> the most <06944> holy <06944> things, he and his sons <01121> for ever < 05769>, to burn <06999> incense <06999> before <06440> the LORD <03068>, to minister <08334> unto him, and to bless <01288> in his name <08034> for ever <05769>.

14 Now [concerning] Moses <04872> the man <0376> of God <0430>, his sons <01121> were named <07121> of the tribe <07626> of Levi <03878>.

15 The sons <01121> of Moses <04872> [were], Gershom <01648>, and Eliezer <0461>.

16 Of the sons <01121> of Gershom <01648>, Shebuel <07619> [was] the chief <07218>.

17 And the sons <01121> of Eliezer <0461> [were], Rehabiah <07345> the chief <07218>. And Eliezer <0461> had <01961> none <03808> other <0312> sons <01121>; but the sons <01121> of Rehabiah <07345> were very < 04605> many <07235>.

18 Of the sons <01121> of Izhar <03324>; Shelomith <08013> the chief <07218>.

19 Of the sons <01121> of Hebron <02275>; Jeriah <03404> the first <07218>, Amariah <0568> the second < 08145>, Jahaziel <03166> the third <07992>, and Jekameam <03360> the fourth <07243>.

20 Of the sons <01121> of Uzziel <05816>; Michah <04318> the first <07218>, and Jesiah <03449> the second <08145>.

21 The sons <01121> of Merari <04847>; Mahli < 04249>, and Mushi <04187>. The sons <01121> of Mahli < 04249>; Eleazar <0499>, and Kish <07027>.

22 And Eleazar <0499> died <04191>, and had < 01961> no <03808> sons <01121>, but daughters <01121>: and their brethren <0251> the sons <01121> of Kish < 07027> took <05375> them.

23 The sons <01121> of Mushi <04187>; Mahli < 04249>, and Eder <05740>, and Jeremoth <03406>, three < 07969>.

24. These <0428> [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> by number <04557> of names <08034> by their polls <01538>, that did <06213> 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>.

25 For David <01732> said <0559>, The LORD < 03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> hath given rest < 03499> unto his people <05971>, that they may dwell <07931> in Jerusalem <03389> for ever <05769>:

26 And also <01571> unto the Levites <03881>; they shall no <0369> [more] carry <05375> the tabernacle < 04908>, nor any <03605> vessels <03627> of it for the service <05656> thereof.

27 For by the last <0314> words <01697> of David <01732> the Levites <03881> [were] numbered <04557> from twenty <06242> years <08141> old <01121> and above < 04605>:

28 Because <03588> 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 <03605> holy <06944> things, and the work <04639> of the service <05656> of the house < 01004> of God <0430>;

29 Both for the shewbread, and for the fine flour <05560> for meat offering <04503>, and for the unleavened <04682> cakes <07550>, and for [that which is baked in] the pan <04227> , and for that which <0834> is fried <07246>, and for all < 03605> manner of measure <04884> and size <04060>;

30 And to stand <05975> every morning <01242> to thank <03034> and praise <01984> the LORD <03068>, and likewise <03651> at even <06153>;

31 And to offer <05927> all <03605> burnt < 05930> sacrifices unto the LORD <03068> in the sabbaths < 07676>, in the new <02320> moons <02320>, and on the set <04150> feasts <04150>, by number <04557>, according to the order <04941> commanded unto them, continually <08548> before <06440> the LORD <03068>:

32 And that they should keep <08104> the charge < 04931> of the tabernacle <0168> of the congregation <04150>, and the charge <04931> of the holy <06944> [place], and the charge <04931> of the sons <01121> of Aaron <0175> their brethren <0251>, in the service <05656> of the house < 01004> of the LORD <03068>.

1Chronicles 24

1. Now [these are] the divisions <04256> of the sons < 01121> of Aaron <0175>. The sons <01121> of Aaron < 0175>; Nadab <05070>, and Abihu <030>, Eleazar <0499>, and Ithamar <0385>.

2 But Nadab <05070> and Abihu <030> died < 04191> before <06440> their father <025>, and had < 01961> no <03808> children <01121>: therefore Eleazar < 0499> and Ithamar <0385> executed the priest's <03547> office.

3 And David <01732> distributed <02505> them, both <08147> Zadok <06659> of the sons <01121> of Eleazar < 0499>, and Ahimelech <0288> of the sons <01121> of Ithamar <0385>, according to their offices <06486> in their service <05656>.

4 And there were more <07227> chief <07218> men < 01397> found <04672> of the sons <01121> of Eleazar < 0499> than <04480> of the sons <01121> of Ithamar < 0385>; and [thus] were they divided <02505>. Among the sons < 01121> of Eleazar <0499> [there were] sixteen chief <07218> men of the house <01004> of [their] fathers <01>, and eight <08083> among the sons <01121> of Ithamar <0385> according to the house <01004> of their fathers <01>.

5 Thus were they divided <02505> by lot <01486>, one <0428> sort with another; for the governors <08269> of the sanctuary <06944>, and governors <08269> [of the house] of God <0430>, were of the sons <01121> of Eleazar <0499>, and of the sons <01121> of Ithamar <0385>.

6 And Shemaiah <08098> the son <01121> of Nethaneel <05417> the scribe <05608>, [one] of the Levites <03878>, wrote <03789> 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 <07218> of the fathers <01> of the priests <03548> and Levites <03881>: one <0259> principal <01> household <01004> being taken <0270> for Eleazar <0499>, and [one] taken <0270> for Ithamar <0385> .

7 Now the first <07223> lot <01486> came < 03318> forth <03318> to Jehoiarib <03080>, the second < 08145> to Jedaiah <03048>,

8 The third <07992> to Harim <02766>, the fourth <07243> to Seorim <08188>,

12 The eleventh to Eliashib <0475>, the twelfth to Jakim <03356>,

13 The thirteenth to Huppah <02647>, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab <03434>,

14 The fifteenth <06240> to Bilgah <01083>, the sixteenth to Immer <0564>,

18 The three <07969> and twentieth <06242> to Delaiah <01806>, the four <0702> and twentieth <06242> to Maaziah <04590>.

19 These <0428> [were] the orderings <06486> of them in their service <05656> to come <0935> into the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, according to their manner < 04941>, under Aaron <0175> their father <025>, as the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> had commanded < 06680> him.

31 These <01992> likewise <01571> cast <05307> lots <01486> over <05980> against <05984> their brethren <0251> the sons <01121> of Aaron <0175> in the presence <06440> of David <01732> the king <04428>, and Zadok <06659>, and Ahimelech <0288>, and the chief < 07218> of the fathers <01> of the priests <03548> and Levites <03881>, even the principal <07218> fathers <01> over <05980> against <05984> their younger <06996> brethren <0251>.

1Chronicles 25

1. Moreover David <01732> and the captains <08269> of the host <06635> separated <0914> to the service < 05656> of the sons <01121> of Asaph <0623>, and of Heman <01968>, and of Jeduthun <03038>, who should prophesy < 05012> with harps <03658>, with psalteries <05035>, and with cymbals <04700>: and the number <04557> of the workmen according to their service <05656> was:

2 Of the sons <01121> of Asaph <0623>; Zaccur < 02139>, and Joseph <03130>, and Nethaniah <05418>, and Asarelah <0841>, the sons <01121> of Asaph <0623> under <05921> the hands <03027> of Asaph <0623>, which prophesied <05012> according <05921> to the order <03027> of the king <04428>.

5 All <03605> these <0428> [were] the sons < 01121> of Heman <01968> the king's <04428> seer < 02374> in the words <01697> of God <0430>, to lift < 07311> up the horn <07161>. And God <0430> gave < 05414> to Heman <01968> fourteen sons <01121> and three < 07969> daughters <01121>.

6 All <03605> these <0428> [were] under < 05921> the hands <03027> of their father <025> for song < 07892> [in] the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, with cymbals <04700>, psalteries <05035>, and harps <03658>, for the service <05656> of the house <01004> of God < 0430>, according <05921> to the king's <04428> order < 03027> to Asaph <0623>, Jeduthun <03038>, and Heman < 01968>.

7 So the number <04557> of them, with their brethren < 0251> that were instructed <03925> in the songs <07892> of the LORD <03068>, [even] all <03605> that were cunning < 0995>, was two hundred <03967> fourscore <08084> and eight <08083>.

31 And over <05921> the flocks <06629> [was] Jaziz <03151> the Hagerite <01905>. All <03605> these < 0428> [were] the rulers <08269> of the substance <07399> which <0834> [was] king <04428> David's <01732>.

32 Also Jonathan <03083> David's <01732> uncle < 01730> was a counsellor <03289>, a wise <0995> man < 0376>, and a scribe <05608>: and Jehiel <03171> the son < 01121> of Hachmoni <02453> [was] with the king's <04428> sons <01121>:

1Chronicles 28

1. And David <01732> assembled <06950> all < 03605> the princes <08269> of Israel <03478>, the princes <08269> of the tribes <07626>, and the captains <08269> of the companies <04256> that ministered <08334> 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 <03605> the substance <07399> and possession <04735> of the king < 04428>, and of his sons <01121>, with the officers <05631>, and with the mighty <01368> men, and with all <03605> the valiant <02428> men, unto Jerusalem <03389>.

2 Then David <01732> the king <04428> stood < 06965> up upon his feet <07272>, and said <0559>, Hear < 08085> me, my brethren <0251>, and my people <05971>: [As for me], I [had] in mine heart <03824> to build <01129> an house <01004> of rest <04496> for the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068>, and for the footstool of our God <0430>, and had made <06213> ready <03559> for the building <01129>:

3 But God <0430> said <0559> unto me, Thou shalt not build <01129> an house <01004> for my name <08034>, because <03588> thou [hast been] a man <0376> of war < 04421>, and hast shed <08210> blood <01818>.

4 Howbeit the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel < 03478> chose <0977> me before all <03605> the house < 01004> of my father <025> to be king <04428> over < 05921> Israel <03478> for ever <05769>: for he hath chosen <0977> Judah <03063> [to be] the ruler <05057>; and of the house <01004> of Judah <03063>, the house <01004> of my father <025>; and among the sons <01121> of my father < 025> he liked <07521> me to make [me] king <04427> over < 05921> all <03605> Israel <03478>:

5 And of all <03605> my sons <01121>, (for the LORD <03068> hath given <05414> me many <07227> sons < 01121>,) he hath chosen <0977> Solomon <08010> my son < 01121> to sit <03427> upon the throne <03678> of the kingdom <04438> of the LORD <03068> over <05921> Israel <03478>.

6 And he said <0559> unto me, Solomon <08010> thy son <01121>, he shall build <01129> my house <01004> and my courts <02691>: for I have chosen <0977> him [to be] my son <01121>, and I will be his father <025>.

7 Moreover I will establish <03559> his kingdom < 04438> for ever <05769>, if <0518> he be constant < 02388> to do <06213> my commandments <04687> and my judgments <04941>, as at this <02088> day <03117>.

8 Now <06258> therefore in the sight <05869> of all <03605> Israel <03478> the congregation <06951> of the LORD <03068>, and in the audience <0241> of our God < 0430>, keep <08104> and seek <01875> for all <03605> the commandments <04687> of the LORD <03068> your God < 0430>: that ye may possess <03423> this good <02896> land <0776>, and leave <05157> [it] for an inheritance <05157> for your children <01121> after <0310> you for ever < 05769>.

9 And thou, Solomon <08010> my son <01121>, know <03045> thou the God <0430> of thy father <025>, and serve <05647> him with a perfect <08003> heart <03820> and with a willing <02655> mind <05315>: for the LORD < 03068> searcheth <01875> all <03605> hearts <03824>, and understandeth <0995> all <03605> the imaginations < 03336> of the thoughts <04284>: if <0518> thou seek < 01875> him, he will be found <04672> of thee; but if <0518> thou forsake <05800> him, he will cast <02186> thee off for ever <05703>.

10 Take <07200> heed <07200> now <06258>; for the LORD <03068> hath chosen <0977> thee to build <01129> an house <01004> for the sanctuary <04720>: be strong < 02388>, and do <06213> [it].

11. Then David <01732> gave <05414> 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 <05944> chambers < 05944> thereof, and of the inner <06442> parlours <02315> thereof, and of the place <01004> of the mercy <03727> seat,

12 And the pattern <08403> of all <03605> that he had by the spirit <07307>, of the courts <02691> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and of all <03605> the chambers <03957> round <05439> about, of the treasuries < 0214> of the house <01004> of God <0430>, and of the treasuries <0214> of the dedicated <06944> things:

13 Also for the courses <04256> of the priests < 03548> and the Levites <03881>, and for all <03605> the work <04399> of the service <05656> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and for all <03605> the vessels < 03627> of service <05656> in the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>.

14 [He gave] of gold <02091> by weight <04948> for [things] of gold <02091>, for all <03605> instruments < 03627> of all <03605> manner of service <05656>; [silver also] for all <03605> instruments <03627> of silver < 03701> by weight <04948>, for all <03605> instruments < 03627> of every <03605> kind of service <05656>:

15 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> thereof: and for the candlesticks < 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>.

16 And by weight <04948> [he gave] gold <02091> for the tables <07979> of shewbread <04635>, for every table < 07979>; and [likewise] silver <03701> for the tables <07979> of silver <03701>:

17 Also pure <02889> gold <02091> for the fleshhooks <04207>, and the bowls <04219>, and the cups < 07184>: and for the golden <02091> basons <03713> [he gave gold] by weight <04948> for every bason <03713>; and [likewise silver] by weight <04948> for every bason <03713> of silver <03701>:

18 And for the altar <04196> of incense <07004> refined <02212> gold <02091> by weight <04948>; and gold <02091> for the pattern <08403> of the chariot <04818> of the cherubims <03742>, that spread <06566> out [their wings], and covered <05526> the ark <0727> of the covenant of the LORD <03068>.

19 All <03605> [this, said David], the LORD <03068> made me understand <07919> in writing <03791> by [his] hand <03027> upon me, [even] all <03605> the works <04399> of this pattern <08403>.

20 And David <01732> said <0559> to Solomon < 08010> his son <01121>, Be strong <02388> and of good courage <0553>, and do <06213> [it]: fear <03372> not, nor <0408> be dismayed <02865>: for the LORD <03068> God <0430>, [even] my God <0430>, [will be] with thee; he will not fail <07503> thee, nor <03808> forsake <05800> thee, until <05704> thou hast finished <03615> all <03605> the work <04399> for the service <05656> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>.

21 And, behold <02009>, the courses <04256> of the priests <03548> and the Levites <03881>, [even they shall be with thee] for all <03605> the service <05656> of the house <01004> of God <0430>: and [there shall be] with thee for all <03605> manner of workmanship <04399> every <03605> willing <05081> skilful <02451> man, for any <03605> manner of service <05656>: also the princes <08269> and all <03605> the people <05971> [will be] wholly <03605> at thy commandment <01697>.

1Chronicles 29

1. Furthermore David <01732> the king <04428> said <0559> unto all <03605> the congregation <06951>, Solomon <08010> my son <01121>, whom alone <0259> God <0430> hath chosen <0977>, [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>.

2 Now I have prepared <03559> with all <03605> 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>, the iron <01270> for [things] of iron <01270>, and wood <06086> for [things] of wood <06086>; onyx <07718> stones <068>, and [stones < 068>] to be set <04394>, glistering <06320> stones < 068>, and of divers <07553> colours <07553>, and all < 03605> manner of precious <03368> stones <068>, and marble <07898> stones <068> in abundance <07230>.

3 Moreover <05750>, because I have set my affection < 07521> to the house <01004> of my God <0430>, I have < 03426> of mine own proper <05459> good, of gold <02091> and silver <03701>, [which] I have given <05414> to the house < 01004> of my God <0430>, over <05921> and above < 04605> all <03605> that I have prepared <03559> for the holy <06944> house <01004>,

4 [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> silver <03701>, to overlay < 02902> the walls <07023> of the houses <01004> [withal]:

5 The gold <02091> for [things] of gold <02091>, and the silver <03701> for [things] of silver <03701>, and for all <03605> manner of work <04399> [to be made] by the hands <03027> of artificers <02796>. And who <04310> [then] is willing <05068> to consecrate his service <03027> this day < 03117> unto the LORD <03068>?

6 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>,

7 And gave <05414> for the service <05656> of the house <01004> of God <0430> of gold <02091> five < 02568> thousand <0505> talents <03603> and ten <07239> thousand <07239> drams <0150>, and of silver <03701> ten <06235> thousand <0505> talents <03603>, and of brass <05178> eighteen thousand <0505> talents <03603>, and one hundred <03967> thousand <0505> talents <03603> of iron <01270>.

8 And they with whom <0834> [precious] stones <068> were found <04672> gave <05414> [them] to the treasure < 0214> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, by the hand <03027> of Jehiel <03171> the Gershonite <01649>.

9 Then the people <05971> rejoiced <08055>, for that they offered willingly <05068>, because <03588> with perfect <08003> heart <03820> they offered willingly < 05068> to the LORD <03068>: and David <01732> the king < 04428> also <01571> rejoiced <08055> with great < 01419> joy <08057>.

10. Wherefore David <01732> blessed <01288> the LORD <03068> before <05869> all <03605> the congregation < 06951>: and David <01732> said <0559>, Blessed <01288> [be] thou, LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> our father <025>, for ever and ever.

11 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 <03605> [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 <05375> as head <07218> above all < 03605>.

12 Both riches <06239> and honour <03519> [come] of thee, and thou reignest <04910> over <04605> all <03605>; and in thine hand <03027> [is] power <03581> and might < 01369>; and in thine hand <03027> [it is] to make great < 01431>, and to give strength <02388> unto all <03605>.

13 Now <06258> therefore, our God <0430>, we thank <03034> thee, and praise <01984> thy glorious <08597> name <08034>.

14 But who <04310> [am] I, and what <04310> [is] my people <05971>, that we should be able to offer so willingly < 05068> after this <02063> sort? for all <03605> things [come] of thee, and of thine own have we given <05414> thee.

15 For we [are] strangers <01616> before <06440> thee, and sojourners <08453>, as [were] all <03605> our fathers <01>: our days <03117> on <05921> the earth < 0776> [are] as a shadow <06738>, and [there is] none <0369> abiding <04723>.

16 O LORD <03068> our God <0430>, all <03605> this <02088> store <01995> that we have prepared <03559> to build <01129> thee an house <01004> for thine holy < 06944> name <08034> [cometh] of thine hand <03027>, and [is] all <03605> thine own.

17 I know <03045> also, my God <0430>, that thou triest <0974> the heart <03824>, and hast pleasure < 07521> in uprightness <03476>. As for me, in the uprightness < 04339> of mine heart <03824> I have willingly <05068> offered all <03605> these <0428> things: and now <06258> have I seen <07200> with joy <08057> thy people <05971>, which are present <04672> here <06311>, to offer willingly < 05068> unto thee.

18 O LORD <03068> God <0430> of Abraham <085>, Isaac <03327>, and of Israel <03478>, our fathers <01>, keep <08104> this <02063> for ever <05769> in the imagination <03336> of the thoughts <04284> of the heart < 03824> of thy people <05971>, and prepare <03559> their heart <03824> unto thee:

19 And give <05414> unto Solomon <08010> my son < 01121> a perfect <08003> heart <03824>, to keep < 08104> thy commandments <04687>, thy testimonies <05715>, and thy statutes <02706>, and to do <06213> all <03605> [these things], and to build <01129> the palace <01002>, [for] the which <0834> I have made provision <03559>.

20 And David <01732> said <0559> to all < 03605> the congregation <06951>, Now <04994> bless < 01288> the LORD <03068> your God <0430>. And all < 03605> the congregation <06951> blessed <01288> the LORD <03068> God <0430> of their fathers <01>, and bowed < 06915> down <06915> their heads, and worshipped <07812> the LORD <03068>, and the king <04428>.

21 And they sacrificed <02076> sacrifices <02077> unto the LORD <03068>, and offered <05927> burnt <05930> offerings 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 <05262> offerings, and sacrifices <02077> in abundance <07230> for all < 03605> Israel <03478>:

22 And did eat <0398> and drink <08353> 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 <04428> the second < 08145> time, and anointed <04886> [him] unto the LORD < 03068> [to be] the chief <05057> governor <05057>, and Zadok <06659> [to be] priest <03548>.

23. Then Solomon <08010> sat <03427> on <05921> the throne <03678> of the LORD <03068> as king <04428> instead <08478> of David <01732> his father <025>, and prospered <06743>; and all <03605> Israel <03478> obeyed <08085> him.

24 And all <03605> the princes <08269>, and the mighty <01368> men, and all <03605> the sons <01121> likewise <01571> of king <04428> David <01732>, submitted themselves unto Solomon <08010> the king <04428>.

25 And the LORD <03068> magnified <01431> Solomon <08010> exceedingly <04605> in the sight <05869> of all <03605> Israel <03478>, and bestowed <05414> upon him [such] royal <04438> majesty <01935> as had <01961> not been <01961> on <05921> any <03605> king <04428> before <06440> him in Israel <03478>.

26 Thus David <01732> the son <01121> of Jesse < 03448> reigned <04427> over <05921> all <03605> Israel <03478>.

27 And the time <03117> that he reigned <04427> over <05921> Israel <03478> [was] forty <0705> years < 08141>; seven <07651> years <08141> reigned <04427> he in Hebron <02275>, and thirty <07970> and three < 07969> [years <08141>] reigned <04427> he in Jerusalem < 03389>.

28 And he died <04191> in a good <02896> old < 07872> age <07872>, full <07646> of days <03117>, riches <06239>, and honour <03519>: and Solomon <08010> his son <01121> reigned <04427> in his stead <08478>.

29 Now the acts <01697> of David <01732> the king <04428>, first <07223> and last <0314>, behold < 02009>, they [are] written <03789> in the book <01697> of Samuel <08050> the seer <07200>, and in the book <01697> of Nathan <05416> the prophet <05030>, and in the book < 01697> of Gad <01410> the seer <02374>,
