2 Samuel 5 1 Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron , and spake , saying , Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh . Copy 2 Also in time past , when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel : and the Lord said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel , and thou shalt be a captain over Israel . Copy 3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron ; and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the Lord : and they anointed David king over Israel . Copy 4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign , and he reigned forty years . Copy 5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months : and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah . Copy 6 And the king and his men went to Jerusalem unto the Jebusites , the inhabitants of the land : which spake unto David , saying , Except thou take away the blind and the lame , thou shalt not come in hither: thinking , David cannot come in hither. Copy 7 Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion : the same is the city of David . Copy 8 And David said on that day , Whosoever getteth up to the gutter , and smiteth the Jebusites , and the lame and the blind , that are hated of David’s soul , he shall be chief and captain. Wherefore they said , The blind and the lame shall not come into the house . Copy 9 So David dwelt in the fort , and called it the city of David . And David built round about from Millo and inward . Copy 10 And David went on , and grew great , and the Lord God of hosts was with him. Copy 11 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David , and cedar trees , and carpenters , and masons : and they built David an house . Copy 12 And David perceived that the Lord had established him king over Israel , and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake. Copy 13 And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem , after he was come from Hebron : and there were yet sons and daughters born to David . Copy 14 And these be the names of those that were born unto him in Jerusalem ; Shammua , and Shobab , and Nathan , and Solomon , Copy 15 Ibhar also, and Elishua , and Nepheg , and Japhia , Copy 16 And Elishama , and Eliada , and Eliphalet . Copy 17 But when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel , all the Philistines came up to seek David ; and David heard of it, and went down to the hold . Copy 18 The Philistines also came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim . Copy 19 And David enquired of the Lord , saying , Shall I go up to the Philistines ? wilt thou deliver them into mine hand ? And the Lord said unto David , Go up : for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into thine hand . Copy 20 And David came to Baal–perazim , and David smote them there, and said , The Lord hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me, as the breach of waters . Therefore he called the name of that place Baal–perazim . Copy 21 And there they left their images , and David and his men burned them. Copy 22 And the Philistines came up yet again , and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim . Copy 23 And when David enquired of the Lord , he said , Thou shalt not go up ; but fetch a compass behind them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees . Copy 24 And let it be, when thou hearest the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees , that then thou shalt bestir thyself: for then shall the Lord go out before thee, to smite the host of the Philistines . Copy 25 And David did so , as the Lord had commanded him; and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gazer . Copy
