We raided the Negev of the Cherethites, the territory of Judah, and the Negev of Caleb, and we burned down Ziklag.”
Read word by wordSo David recovered everything the Amalekites had taken, including his two wives.
Read word by wordAnd he took all the flocks and herds, which his men drove ahead of the other livestock, calling out, “This is David’s plunder!”
Read word by wordWhen David came to the two hundred men who had been too exhausted to follow him and who were left behind at the Brook of Besor, they came out to meet him and the troops with him. As David approached the men, he greeted them,
Read word by wordbut all the wicked and worthless men among those who had gone with David said, “Because they did not go with us, we will not share with them the plunder we recovered, except for each man’s wife and children. They may take them and go.”
Read word by wordBut David said, “My brothers, you must not do this with what the LORD has given us. He has protected us and delivered into our hands the raiders who came against us.
Read word by wordThe Philistines hotly pursued Saul and his sons, and they killed Saul’s sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
Read word by wordThen Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and run me through with it, or these uncircumcised men will come and run me through and torture me!” But his armor-bearer was terrified and refused to do it. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it.
Read word by wordWhen the Israelites along the valley and those on the other side of the Jordan saw that the army of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their cities and ran away. So the Philistines came and occupied their cities.
Read word by wordThe next day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
Read word by wordThey cut off Saul’s head, stripped off his armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to proclaim the news in the temples of their idols and among their people.
Read word by wordThey put his armor in the temple of the Ashtoreths and hung his body on the wall of Beth-shan.
Read word by wordWhen the people of Jabesh-gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
Read word by wordall their men of valor set out, journeyed all night, and retrieved the bodies of Saul and his sons from the wall of Beth-shan. When they arrived at Jabesh, they burned the bodies there.
Read word by wordThen they took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jabesh, and they fasted seven days.
Read word by wordAfter the death of Saul, David returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites and stayed in Ziklag two days.
Read word by wordSo David asked him, “Why were you not afraid to lift your hand to destroy the LORD’s anointed?”
Read word by wordFor David had said to the Amalekite, “Your blood be on your own head because your own mouth has testified against you, saying, ‘I killed the LORD’s anointed.’”
Read word by wordThen David took up this lament for Saul and his son Jonathan,
Read word by wordThen the men of Judah came to Hebron, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, “It was the men of Jabesh-gilead who buried Saul.”
Read word by wordSo David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh-gilead to tell them, “The LORD bless you, because you showed this kindness to Saul your lord when you buried him.
Read word by wordNow then, be strong and courageous, for though Saul your lord is dead, the house of Judah has anointed me as their king.”
Read word by wordMeanwhile, Abner son of Ner, the commander of Saul’s army, took Saul’s son Ish-bosheth, moved him to Mahanaim,
Read word by wordSo Abner told him, “Turn to your right or to your left, seize one of the young men, and take his equipment for yourself.” But Asahel would not stop chasing him.
Read word by wordAnd all that night Abner and his men marched through the Arabah. They crossed the Jordan, marched all morning, and arrived at Mahanaim.
Read word by wordWhen Joab returned from pursuing Abner, he gathered all the troops. In addition to Asahel, nineteen of David’s servants were missing,
Read word by wordAnd they took Asahel and buried him in his father’s tomb in Bethlehem. Then Joab and his men marched all night and reached Hebron at daybreak.
Read word by wordto transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul and to establish the throne of David over Israel and Judah, from Dan to Beersheba.”
Read word by wordAnd for fear of Abner, Ish-bosheth did not dare to say another word to him.
Read word by wordThen Abner sent messengers on his behalf to say to David, “To whom does the land belong? Make your covenant with me, and surely my hand will be with you to bring all Israel over to you.”
Read word by word“Good,” replied David, “I will make a covenant with you. But there is one thing I require of you: Do not appear before me unless you bring Saul’s daughter Michal when you come to see me.”
Read word by wordThen David sent messengers to say to Ish-bosheth son of Saul, “Give me back my wife, Michal, whom I betrothed to myself for a hundred Philistine foreskins.”
Read word by wordNow Abner conferred with the elders of Israel and said, “In the past you sought David as your king.
Read word by wordNow take action, because the LORD has said to David, ‘Through My servant David I will save My people Israel from the hands of the Philistines and of all their enemies.’”
Read word by wordAbner also spoke to the Benjamites. Then he went to Hebron to tell David all that seemed good to Israel and to the whole house of Benjamin.
Read word by wordThen Abner said to David, “Let me go at once, and I will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may rule over all that your heart desires.” So David dismissed Abner, and he went in peace.
Read word by wordSurely you realize that Abner son of Ner came to deceive you and to track your movements and all that you are doing.”
Read word by wordAs soon as Joab had left David, he sent messengers after Abner, who brought him back from the well of Sirah. But David was unaware of it.
Read word by word(Joab and his brother Abishai murdered Abner because he had killed their brother Asahel in the battle at Gibeon.)
Read word by wordWhen they buried Abner in Hebron, the king wept aloud at Abner’s tomb, and all the people wept.
Read word by wordThen all the people came and urged David to eat something while it was still day, but David took an oath, saying, “May God punish me, and ever so severely, if I taste bread or anything else before the sun sets!”
Read word by wordSo on that day all the troops and all Israel were convinced that the king had no part in the murder of Abner son of Ner.
Read word by wordNow Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, set out and arrived at the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, while the king was taking his midday nap.
Read word by wordThey had entered the house while Ish-bosheth was lying on his bed, and having stabbed and killed him, they beheaded him, took his head, and traveled all night by way of the Arabah.
Read word by wordThey brought the head of Ish-bosheth to David at Hebron and said to the king, “Here is the head of Ish-bosheth son of Saul, your enemy who sought your life. Today the LORD has granted vengeance to my lord the king against Saul and his offspring.”
Read word by wordBut David answered Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, “As surely as the LORD lives, who has redeemed my life from all distress,
Read word by wordHow much more, when wicked men kill a righteous man in his own house and on his own bed, shall I not now require his blood from your hands and remove you from the earth!”
Read word by wordSo David commanded his young men, and they killed Rechab and Baanah. They cut off their hands and feet and hung their bodies by the pool in Hebron, but they took the head of Ish-bosheth and buried it in Abner’s tomb in Hebron.
Read word by wordEven in times past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And to you the LORD said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”
Read word by wordSo all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where King David made with them a covenant before the LORD. And they anointed him king over Israel.
