And he sacrificed<S>2076</S> and burned<S>6999</S> incense<S>6999</S> on the high<S>1116</S> places<S>1116</S> and on the hills<S>1389</S> and under<S>8478</S> every<S>3605</S> green<S>7488</S> tree.<S>6086</S>

<pb/>Then<S>227</S> Rezin<S>7526</S> king<S>4428</S> of Aram<S>758</S> and Pekah<S>6492</S> son<S>1121</S> of Remaliah,<S>7425</S> king<S>4428</S> of Israel,<S>3478</S> came<S>5927</S> up to Jerusalem<S>3389</S> to [wage] war;<S>4421</S> and they besieged<S>6696</S> <S>5921</S> Ahaz,<S>271</S> but could<S>3201</S> not overcome<S>3898</S> him.


text:
At that time<S>6256</S> Rezin<S>7526</S> king<S>4428</S> of Aram<S>758</S> recovered<S>7725</S> Elath<S>9014</S> for Aram,<S>758</S> and cleared<S>5394</S> the Judeans<S>3064</S> out of Elath<S>359</S> entirely; and the Arameans<S>130</S> came<S>935</S> to Elath,<S>9014</S> and have lived<S>3427</S> there<S>8033</S> to this<S>2088</S> day.<S>3117</S>


text:
So Ahaz<S>271</S> sent<S>7971</S> messengers<S>4397</S> to Tiglath-pileser king<S>4428</S> of Assyria,<S>804</S> saying,<S>559</S> "I am your servant<S>5650</S> and your son;<S>1121</S> come<S>5927</S> up and deliver<S>3467</S> me from the hand<S>3709</S> of the king<S>4428</S> of Aram,<S>758</S> and from the hand<S>3709</S> of the king<S>4428</S> of Israel,<S>3478</S> who are rising<S>6965</S> up against<S>5921</S> me."


text:
And Ahaz<S>271</S> took<S>3947</S> the silver<S>3701</S> and gold<S>2091</S> that was found<S>4672</S> in the house<S>1004</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> and in the treasuries<S>214</S> of the king<S>4428</S>'s house,<S>1004</S> and sent<S>7971</S> a present<S>7810</S> to the king of Assyria.<S>804</S>


text:
So the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria<S>804</S> listened<S>8085</S> to him; and the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria<S>804</S> went<S>5927</S> up against<S>413</S> Damascus<S>1834</S> and captured<S>8610</S> it, and carried<S>1540</S> [the people of] it away<S>1540</S> into exile<S>1540</S> to Kir,<S>9518</S> and put<S>4191</S> Rezin<S>7526</S> to death.<S>4191</S>


text:
<pb/>Now King<S>4428</S> Ahaz<S>271</S> went<S>1980</S> to Damascus<S>1834</S> to meet<S>7122</S> Tiglath-pileser king<S>4428</S> of Assyria,<S>804</S> and saw<S>7200</S> the altar<S>4196</S> which<S>834</S> [was] at Damascus;<S>1834</S> and King<S>4428</S> Ahaz<S>271</S> sent<S>7971</S> to Urijah<S>223</S> the priest<S>3548</S> the pattern<S>1823</S> of the altar<S>4196</S> and its model,<S>8403</S> according to all<S>3605</S> its workmanship.<S>4639</S>


text:
So Urijah<S>223</S> the priest<S>3548</S> built<S>1129</S> an altar;<S>4196</S> according to all<S>3605</S> that King<S>4428</S> Ahaz<S>271</S> had sent<S>7971</S> from Damascus,<S>1834</S> thus<S>3651</S> Urijah<S>223</S> the priest<S>3548</S> made<S>6213</S> [it,] before<S>5704</S> the coming<S>935</S> of King<S>4428</S> Ahaz<S>271</S> from Damascus.<S>1834</S>


text:
And when the king<S>4428</S> came<S>935</S> from Damascus,<S>1834</S> the king<S>4428</S> saw<S>7200</S> the altar;<S>4196</S> then the king<S>4428</S> approached<S>7126</S> the altar<S>4196</S> and went<S>5927</S> up to it,


text:
and burned<S>6999</S> his burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> and his meal<S>4503</S> offering,<S>4503</S> and poured<S>5258</S> his libation<S>5262</S> and sprinkled<S>2236</S> the blood<S>1818</S> of his peace<S>8002</S> offerings<S>8002</S> on the altar.<S>4196</S>


text:
And the bronze<S>5178</S> altar,<S>4196</S> which<S>834</S> [was] before<S>6440</S> the Lord,<S>3068</S> he brought<S>7126</S> from the front<S>6440</S> of the house,<S>1004</S> from between<S>996</S> [his] altar<S>4196</S> and the house<S>1004</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> and he put<S>5414</S> it on the north<S>6828</S> side<S>3409</S> of [his] altar.<S>4196</S>


text:
Then King<S>4428</S> Ahaz<S>271</S> commanded<S>6680</S> Urijah<S>223</S> the priest,<S>3548</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Upon the great<S>1419</S> altar<S>4196</S> burn<S>6999</S> the morning<S>1242</S> burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> and the evening<S>6153</S> meal<S>4503</S> offering<S>4503</S> and the king's burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> and his meal<S>4503</S> offering,<S>4503</S> with the burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> of all<S>3605</S> the people<S>5971</S> of the land<S>776</S> and their meal<S>4503</S> offering<S>4503</S> and their libations;<S>5262</S> and sprinkle<S>2236</S> on it all<S>3605</S> the blood<S>1818</S> of the burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> and all<S>3605</S> the blood<S>1818</S> of the sacrifice.<S>2077</S> But the bronze<S>5178</S> altar<S>4196</S> shall be for me to inquire<S>1239</S> [by.]"


text:
So Urijah<S>223</S> the priest<S>3548</S> did<S>6213</S> according to all<S>3605</S> that King<S>4428</S> Ahaz<S>271</S> commanded.<S>6680</S>


text:
<pb/>Then King<S>4428</S> Ahaz<S>271</S> cut<S>7112</S> off<S>7112</S> the borders<S>4526</S> of the stands,<S>4350</S> and removed<S>5493</S> the laver<S>3595</S> from them; he also took<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> the sea<S>3220</S> from the bronze<S>5178</S> oxen<S>1241</S> which<S>834</S> were under<S>8478</S> it, and put<S>5414</S> it on a pavement<S>4837</S> of stone.<S>68</S>

<pb/>Now the rest<S>3499</S> of the acts<S>1697</S> of Ahaz<S>271</S> which<S>834</S> he did,<S>6213</S> are they not written<S>3789</S> in the Book<S>5612</S> of the Chronicles<S>1697</S> <S>3117</S> of the Kings<S>4428</S> of Judah<S>3063</S>?

So Ahaz<S>271</S> slept<S>7901</S> with his fathers, and was buried<S>1</S> with his fathers in the city<S>6912</S> of David;<S>1</S> and his son<S>5892</S> Hezekiah<S>1732</S> reigned<S>1121</S> in his place.<S>2396</S>

And he did<S>6213</S> evil<S>7451</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> only<S>7534</S> not as the kings<S>4428</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> who<S>834</S> were before<S>6440</S> him.

Shalmaneser<S>8022</S> king<S>4428</S> of Assyria<S>804</S> came<S>5927</S> up against<S>5921</S> him, and Hoshea<S>1954</S> became<S>1961</S> his servant<S>5650</S> and paid<S>7725</S> him tribute.<S>4503</S>

But the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria<S>804</S> found<S>4672</S> conspiracy<S>7195</S> in Hoshea,<S>1954</S> who<S>834</S> had sent<S>7971</S> messengers<S>4397</S> to So<S>5471</S> king<S>4428</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> and had offered<S>5927</S> no<S>3808</S> tribute<S>4503</S> to the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria,<S>804</S> as [he had done] year<S>8141</S> by year;<S>8141</S> so the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria<S>804</S> shut<S>6113</S> him up and bound<S>631</S> him in prison.<S>1004</S> <S>3608</S>

Then the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria<S>804</S> invaded<S>5927</S> the whole<S>3605</S> land<S>776</S> and went<S>5927</S> up to Samaria<S>8111</S> and besieged<S>6696</S> <S>5921</S> it three<S>7969</S> years.<S>8141</S>

In the ninth<S>8671</S> year<S>8141</S> of Hoshea,<S>1954</S> the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria<S>804</S> captured<S>3920</S> Samaria<S>8111</S> and carried<S>1540</S> Israel<S>3478</S> away<S>1540</S> into exile<S>1540</S> to Assyria,<S>804</S> and settled<S>3427</S> them in Halah<S>2477</S> and Habor,<S>2249</S> [on] the river<S>5104</S> of Gozan,<S>1470</S> and in the cities<S>5892</S> of the Medes.<S>4074</S>

Now [this] came<S>1961</S> about, because<S>3588</S> the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> had sinned<S>2398</S> against the Lord<S>3068</S> their God,<S>430</S> who had brought<S>5927</S> them up from the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> from under<S>8478</S> the hand<S>3027</S> of Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> king<S>4428</S> of Egypt,<S>4714</S> and they had feared<S>3372</S> other<S>312</S> gods<S>430</S>

and walked<S>1980</S> in the customs<S>2708</S> of the nations<S>1471</S> whom<S>834</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> had driven<S>3423</S> out before<S>4480</S> <S>6440</S> the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel,<S>3478</S> and [in the customs] of the kings<S>4428</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> which<S>834</S> they had introduced.<S>6213</S>

And the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> did<S>2644</S> things<S>1697</S> secretly<S>2644</S> which<S>834</S> were not right,<S>9210</S> against<S>5921</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> their God.<S>430</S> Moreover, they built<S>1129</S> for themselves high<S>1116</S> places<S>1116</S> in all<S>3605</S> their towns,<S>5892</S> from watchtower<S>4026</S> <S>5341</S> to fortified<S>4013</S> city.<S>5892</S>

And they served<S>5647</S> idols,<S>1544</S> concerning which<S>834</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> had said<S>559</S> to them, "You shall not do<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> thing.<S>1697</S>"

<pb/>Yet the Lord<S>3068</S> warned<S>5749</S> Israel<S>3478</S> and Judah,<S>3063</S> through<S>3027</S> all<S>3605</S> His prophets<S>5030</S> [and] every<S>3605</S> seer,<S>2374</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Turn<S>7725</S> from your evil<S>7451</S> ways<S>1870</S> and keep<S>8104</S> My commandments,<S>4687</S> My statutes<S>2708</S> according to all<S>3605</S> the law<S>8451</S> which<S>834</S> I commanded<S>6680</S> your fathers, and which<S>1</S> I sent<S>834</S> to you through<S>7971</S> My servants<S>3027</S> the prophets.<S>5650</S>"

However, they did not listen,<S>8085</S> but stiffened<S>7185</S> their neck<S>6203</S> like their fathers, who<S>1</S> did not believe<S>834</S> in the Lord<S>539</S> their God.<S>3068</S>

And they rejected<S>3988</S> His statutes<S>2706</S> and His covenant<S>1285</S> which<S>834</S> He made<S>3772</S> with their fathers, and His warnings<S>1</S> with which<S>5715</S> He warned<S>834</S> them.

text:
And they forsook<S>5800</S> all<S>3605</S> the commandments<S>4687</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> their God<S>430</S> and made<S>6213</S> for themselves molten<S>4541</S> images,<S>4541</S> [even] two<S>8147</S> calves,<S>5695</S> and made<S>6213</S> an Asherah<S>842</S> and worshiped<S>7812</S> all<S>3605</S> the host<S>6635</S> of heaven<S>8064</S> and served<S>5647</S> Baal.<S>1168</S>

Then they made their sons<S>1121</S> and their daughters<S>1323</S> pass<S>5674</S> through the fire,<S>784</S> and practiced<S>7080</S> divination<S>7081</S> and enchantments,<S>5172</S> and sold<S>4376</S> themselves to do<S>6213</S> evil<S>7451</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> provoking<S>3707</S> Him.

When<S>3588</S> He had torn<S>7167</S> Israel<S>3478</S> from the house<S>1004</S> of David,<S>1732</S> they made<S>4427</S> Jeroboam<S>3379</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Nebat<S>5028</S> king.<S>4427</S> Then Jeroboam<S>3379</S> drove<S>9312</S> Israel<S>3478</S> away<S>9312</S> from following<S>310</S> the Lord,<S>3068</S> and made them commit<S>2398</S> a great<S>1419</S> sin.<S>2401</S>

So they spoke<S>559</S> to the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria,<S>804</S> saying,<S>559</S> "The nations<S>1471</S> whom<S>834</S> you have carried<S>1540</S> away<S>1540</S> into exile<S>1540</S> in the cities<S>5892</S> of Samaria<S>8111</S> do not know<S>3045</S> the custom<S>4941</S> of the god<S>430</S> of the land;<S>776</S> so he has sent<S>7971</S> lions<S>738</S> among them, and behold,<S>2009</S> they kill<S>4191</S> them because<S>834</S> they do not know<S>3045</S> the custom<S>4941</S> of the god<S>430</S> of the land.<S>776</S>"

Then the king<S>4428</S> of Assyria<S>804</S> commanded,<S>6680</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Take<S>1980</S> there<S>8033</S> one<S>259</S> of the priests<S>3548</S> whom<S>834</S> you carried<S>1540</S> away<S>1540</S> into exile,<S>1540</S> and let him go<S>1980</S> and live<S>3427</S> there;<S>8033</S> and let him teach<S>3384</S> them the custom<S>4941</S> of the god<S>430</S> of the land.<S>776</S>"

So one<S>259</S> of the priests<S>3548</S> whom<S>834</S> they had carried<S>1540</S> away<S>1540</S> into exile<S>1540</S> from Samaria<S>8111</S> came<S>935</S> and lived<S>3427</S> at Bethel,<S>1008</S> and taught<S>3384</S> them how<S>349</S> they should fear<S>3372</S> the Lord.<S>3068</S>

He trusted<S>982</S> in the Lord,<S>3068</S> the God<S>430</S> of Israel;<S>3478</S> so that after<S>310</S> him there was none<S>3808</S> like<S>3644</S> him among all<S>3605</S> the kings<S>4428</S> of Judah,<S>3063</S> nor<S>3808</S> [among those] who<S>834</S> were before<S>6440</S> him.

Zedekiah<S>6667</S> was twenty-one years<S>8141</S> old<S>1121</S> when he became<S>4427</S> king,<S>4427</S> and he reigned<S>4427</S> eleven<S>259</S> <S>6240</S> years<S>8141</S> in Jerusalem;<S>3389</S> and his mother's name<S>8034</S> [was] Hamutal<S>2537</S> the daughter<S>1323</S> of Jeremiah<S>3414</S> of Libnah.<S>3841</S>

And he did<S>6213</S> evil<S>7451</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> according to all<S>3605</S> that Jehoiakim<S>3079</S> had done.<S>6213</S>


text:
<pb/>For through<S>5921</S> the anger<S>639</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> [this] came<S>1961</S> about in Jerusalem<S>3389</S> and Judah<S>3063</S> until<S>5704</S> He cast<S>7993</S> them out from His presence.<S>6440</S> And Zedekiah<S>6667</S> rebelled<S>4775</S> against the king<S>4428</S> of Babylon.<S>894</S>


text:
Now it came<S>1961</S> about in the ninth<S>8671</S> year<S>8141</S> of his reign,<S>4427</S> on the tenth<S>6218</S> day of the tenth<S>6224</S> month,<S>2320</S> that Nebuchadnezzar<S>5019</S> king<S>4428</S> of Babylon<S>894</S> came,<S>935</S> he and all<S>3605</S> his army,<S>2428</S> against<S>5921</S> Jerusalem,<S>3389</S> camped<S>2583</S> against<S>5921</S> it, and built<S>1129</S> a siege<S>1785</S> wall<S>1785</S> all<S>5439</S> around<S>5439</S> it.


text:
So the city<S>5892</S> was under siege<S>4692</S> until<S>5704</S> the eleventh<S>6249</S> <S>6240</S> year<S>8141</S> of King<S>4428</S> Zedekiah.<S>6667</S>


text:
On the ninth<S>8672</S> day of the [fourth] month<S>2320</S> the famine<S>7458</S> was so severe<S>2388</S> in the city<S>5892</S> that there was no<S>3808</S> food<S>3899</S> for the people<S>5971</S> of the land.<S>776</S>


text:
Then the city<S>5892</S> was broken<S>1234</S> into, and all<S>3605</S> the men<S>376</S> of war<S>4421</S> [fled] by night<S>3915</S> by way<S>1870</S> of the gate<S>8179</S> between<S>996</S> the two walls<S>2346</S> beside<S>5921</S> the king's garden,<S>1588</S> though the Chaldeans<S>3778</S> were all<S>5439</S> around<S>5439</S> the city.<S>5892</S> And they went<S>1980</S> by way<S>1870</S> of the Arabah.<S>6160</S>


text:
But the army<S>2428</S> of the Chaldeans<S>3778</S> pursued<S>7291</S> the king<S>4428</S> and overtook<S>5381</S> him in the plains<S>6160</S> of Jericho<S>3405</S> and all<S>3605</S> his army<S>2428</S> was scattered<S>6327</S> from him.


text:
Then they captured<S>8610</S> the king<S>4428</S> and brought<S>5927</S> him to the king<S>4428</S> of Babylon<S>894</S> at Riblah,<S>7247</S> and he passed<S>1696</S> sentence<S>1696</S> on him.


text:
And they slaughtered<S>7819</S> the sons<S>1121</S> of Zedekiah<S>6667</S> before his eyes,<S>5869</S> then put<S>5786</S> out the eyes<S>5869</S> of Zedekiah<S>6667</S> and bound<S>631</S> him with bronze<S>5178</S> fetters<S>5178</S> and brought<S>935</S> him to Babylon.<S>894</S>

Now on the seventh<S>7651</S> day of the fifth<S>2549</S> month,<S>2320</S> which<S>1931</S> was the nineteenth<S>8672</S> <S>6240</S> year<S>8141</S> of King<S>4428</S> Nebuchadnezzar,<S>5019</S> king<S>4428</S> of Babylon,<S>894</S> Nebuzaradan<S>5018</S> the captain<S>9538</S> of the guard,<S>2876</S> a servant<S>5650</S> of the king<S>4428</S> of Babylon,<S>894</S> came<S>935</S> to Jerusalem.<S>3389</S>

And he burned<S>8313</S> the house<S>1004</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> the king's house,<S>1004</S> and all<S>3605</S> the houses<S>1004</S> of Jerusalem;<S>3389</S> even every<S>3605</S> great<S>1419</S> house<S>1004</S> he burned<S>8313</S> with fire.<S>784</S>

<pb/>Now the Philistines<S>6430</S> fought<S>3898</S> against Israel;<S>3478</S> and the men<S>376</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> fled<S>5127</S> before<S>4480</S> <S>6440</S> the Philistines,<S>6430</S> and fell<S>5307</S> slain<S>2491</S> on Mount<S>2022</S> Gilboa.<S>1533</S>


text:
And the Philistines<S>6430</S> closely<S>1692</S> pursued<S>1692</S> Saul<S>7586</S> and his sons,<S>1121</S> and the Philistines<S>6430</S> struck<S>5221</S> down<S>5221</S> Jonathan,<S>3083</S> Abinadab<S>41</S> and Malchi-shua, the sons<S>1121</S> of Saul.<S>7586</S>

And the battle<S>4421</S> became<S>3513</S> heavy<S>3513</S> against<S>5921</S> Saul,<S>7586</S> and the archers<S>3384</S> <S>7198</S> overtook<S>4672</S> him; and he was wounded<S>9123</S> by the archers.<S>3384</S>


text:
Then Saul<S>7586</S> said<S>559</S> to his armor<S>3627</S> bearer,<S>5375</S> "Draw<S>8025</S> your sword<S>2719</S> and thrust<S>1856</S> me through<S>1856</S> with it, lest<S>6435</S> these<S>428</S> uncircumcised<S>6189</S> come<S>935</S> and abuse<S>9412</S> me." But his armor<S>3627</S> bearer<S>5375</S> would<S>14</S> not, for he was greatly<S>3966</S> afraid.<S>3372</S> Therefore Saul<S>7586</S> took<S>3947</S> his sword<S>2719</S> and fell<S>5307</S> on it.


text:
And when his armor<S>3627</S> bearer<S>5375</S> saw<S>7200</S> that Saul<S>7586</S> was dead,<S>4191</S> he likewise<S>1571</S> fell<S>5307</S> on his sword<S>2719</S> and died.<S>4191</S>


text:
Thus Saul<S>7586</S> died<S>4191</S> with his three<S>7969</S> sons,<S>1121</S> and all<S>3605</S> [those] of his house<S>1004</S> died<S>4191</S> together.<S>9191</S>


text:
When all<S>3605</S> the men<S>376</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> who<S>834</S> were in the valley<S>6010</S> saw<S>7200</S> that they had fled,<S>5127</S> and that Saul<S>7586</S> and his sons<S>1121</S> were dead,<S>4191</S> they forsook<S>5800</S> their cities<S>5892</S> and fled;<S>5127</S> and the Philistines<S>6430</S> came<S>935</S> and lived<S>3427</S> in them.


text:
<pb/>And it came<S>1961</S> about the next<S>4283</S> day,<S>4283</S> when the Philistines<S>6430</S> came<S>935</S> to strip<S>6584</S> the slain,<S>2491</S> that they found<S>4672</S> Saul<S>7586</S> and his sons<S>1121</S> fallen<S>5307</S> on Mount<S>2022</S> Gilboa.<S>1533</S>

So they stripped<S>6584</S> him and took<S>5375</S> his head<S>7218</S> and his armor<S>3627</S> and sent<S>7971</S> [messengers] around<S>5439</S> the land<S>776</S> of the Philistines,<S>6430</S> to carry<S>1319</S> the good news<S>1319</S> to their idols<S>6091</S> and to the people.<S>5971</S>

And they put<S>7760</S> his armor<S>3627</S> in the house<S>1004</S> of their gods<S>430</S> and fastened<S>8628</S> his head<S>1538</S> in the house<S>1004</S> of Dagon.<S>1712</S>

When all<S>3605</S> Jabesh-gilead heard<S>8085</S> all<S>3605</S> that the Philistines<S>6430</S> had done<S>6213</S> to Saul,<S>7586</S>


text:
all<S>3605</S> the valiant<S>2428</S> men<S>376</S> arose<S>6965</S> and took<S>5375</S> away the body<S>1480</S> of Saul<S>7586</S> and the bodies<S>1480</S> of his sons,<S>1121</S> and brought<S>935</S> them to Jabesh<S>3003</S> and buried<S>6912</S> their bones<S>6106</S> under<S>8478</S> the oak<S>424</S> in Jabesh,<S>3003</S> and fasted<S>6684</S> seven<S>7651</S> days.<S>3117</S>


text:
<pb/>So Saul<S>7586</S> died<S>4191</S> for his trespass<S>4604</S> which<S>834</S> he committed<S>4603</S> against the Lord,<S>3068</S> because<S>5921</S> of the word<S>1697</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> which<S>834</S> he did not keep;<S>8104</S> and also<S>1571</S> because he asked<S>7592</S> counsel of a medium,<S>178</S> making<S>1875</S> inquiry<S>1875</S> [of it],


text:
and did not inquire<S>1875</S> of the Lord.<S>3068</S> Therefore He killed<S>4191</S> him, and turned<S>5437</S> the kingdom<S>4410</S> to David<S>1732</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Jesse.<S>3448</S>


text:
<pb/>Then all<S>3605</S> Israel<S>3478</S> gathered<S>6908</S> to David<S>1732</S> at Hebron<S>2275</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> we are your bone<S>6106</S> and your flesh.<S>1320</S>

"In times<S>1571</S> <S>8032</S> <S>8543</S> past,<S>8543</S> <S>8032</S> even<S>1571</S> when Saul<S>7586</S> was king,<S>4428</S> you [were] the one who led<S>3318</S> out and brought<S>935</S> in Israel;<S>3478</S> and the Lord<S>3068</S> your God<S>430</S> said<S>559</S> to you, 'You shall shepherd<S>7462</S> My people<S>5971</S> Israel,<S>3478</S> and you shall be prince<S>5057</S> over<S>5921</S> My people<S>5971</S> Israel.<S>3478</S>'"

So all<S>3605</S> the elders<S>2205</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> came<S>935</S> to the king<S>4428</S> at Hebron,<S>2275</S> and David<S>1732</S> made<S>3772</S> a covenant<S>1285</S> with them in Hebron<S>2275</S> before<S>6440</S> the Lord;<S>3068</S> and they anointed<S>4886</S> David<S>1732</S> king<S>4428</S> over<S>5921</S> Israel,<S>3478</S> according to the word<S>1697</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> through<S>3027</S> Samuel.<S>8050</S>


text:
Then David<S>1732</S> and all<S>3605</S> Israel<S>3478</S> went<S>1980</S> to Jerusalem<S>3389</S> (that is, Jebus<S>2982</S>); and the Jebusites,<S>2983</S> the inhabitants<S>3427</S> of the land,<S>776</S> [were] there.<S>8033</S>

And the inhabitants<S>3427</S> of Jebus<S>2982</S> said<S>559</S> to David,<S>1732</S> "You shall not enter<S>935</S> here.<S>2008</S>" Nevertheless David<S>1732</S> captured<S>3920</S> the stronghold<S>4686</S> of Zion<S>6726</S> (that is, the city<S>5892</S> of David<S>1732</S>).

Now David<S>1732</S> had said,<S>559</S> "Whoever<S>3605</S> strikes<S>5221</S> down<S>5221</S> a Jebusite<S>2983</S> first<S>7223</S> shall be chief<S>7218</S> and commander.<S>8269</S>" And Joab<S>3097</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Zeruiah<S>6870</S> went<S>5927</S> up first,<S>7223</S> so he became<S>1961</S> chief.<S>7218</S>


text:
Then David<S>1732</S> dwelt<S>3427</S> in the stronghold;<S>4679</S> therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> it was called<S>7121</S> the city<S>5892</S> of David.<S>1732</S>

And they took<S>3320</S> their stand<S>3320</S> in the midst<S>8432</S> of the plot,<S>2513</S> and defended<S>5337</S> it, and struck<S>5221</S> down<S>5221</S> the Philistines;<S>6430</S> and the Lord<S>3068</S> saved<S>3467</S> them by a great<S>1419</S> victory.<S>8668</S>

<pb/>Now three<S>7969</S> of the thirty<S>7970</S> chief<S>7218</S> men<S>7218</S> went<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> to the rock<S>6697</S> to David,<S>1732</S> into the cave<S>4631</S> of Adullam,<S>5725</S> while the army<S>4264</S> of the Philistines<S>6430</S> was camping<S>2583</S> in the valley<S>6010</S> of Rephaim.<S>7497</S>

And David<S>1732</S> was then<S>227</S> in the stronghold,<S>4686</S> while the garrison<S>5333</S> of the Philistines<S>6430</S> [was] then<S>227</S> in Bethlehem.<S>1035</S>

So the three<S>7969</S> broke<S>1234</S> through<S>1234</S> the camp<S>4264</S> of the Philistines,<S>6430</S> and drew<S>7579</S> water<S>4325</S> from the well<S>953</S> of Bethlehem<S>1035</S> which<S>834</S> [was] by the gate,<S>8179</S> and took<S>5375</S> [it] and brought<S>935</S> [it] to David;<S>1732</S> nevertheless David<S>1732</S> would<S>14</S> not drink<S>8354</S> it, but poured<S>5258</S> it out to the Lord;<S>3068</S>

and let us bring<S>5437</S> back<S>5437</S> the ark<S>727</S> of our God<S>430</S> to us, for we did not seek<S>1875</S> it in the days<S>3117</S> of Saul.<S>7586</S> "


text:
Then all<S>3605</S> the assembly<S>6951</S> said<S>559</S> that they would do<S>6213</S> so,<S>3651</S> for the thing<S>1697</S> was right<S>3474</S> in the eyes<S>5869</S> of all<S>3605</S> the people.<S>5971</S>


text:
So David<S>1732</S> assembled<S>6950</S> all<S>3605</S> Israel<S>3478</S> together, from the Shihor<S>7883</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> even to the entrance<S>935</S> of Hamath,<S>2574</S> to bring<S>935</S> the ark<S>727</S> of God<S>430</S> from Kiriath-jearim.


text:
And David<S>1732</S> and all<S>3605</S> Israel<S>3478</S> went<S>5927</S> up to Baalah,<S>1173</S> [that is,] to Kiriath-jearim, which<S>834</S> belongs to Judah,<S>3063</S> to bring<S>5927</S> up from there<S>8033</S> the ark<S>727</S> of God,<S>430</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> who is enthroned<S>3427</S> [above] the cherubim,<S>3742</S> where<S>834</S> His name<S>8034</S> is called.<S>7121</S>


text:
<pb/>And they carried<S>7392</S> the ark<S>727</S> of God<S>430</S> on a new<S>2319</S> cart<S>5699</S> from the house<S>1004</S> of Abinadab,<S>41</S> and Uzza<S>5798</S> and Ahio<S>283</S> drove<S>5090</S> the cart.<S>5699</S>


text:
And David<S>1732</S> and all<S>3605</S> Israel<S>3478</S> were celebrating<S>7832</S> before<S>6440</S> God<S>430</S> with all<S>3605</S> [their] might,<S>5797</S> even with songs<S>7892</S> and with lyres,<S>3658</S> harps,<S>5035</S> tambourines,<S>8596</S> cymbals,<S>4700</S> and with trumpets.<S>2689</S>


text:
When they came<S>935</S> to the threshing<S>1637</S> floor<S>1637</S> of Chidon,<S>3592</S> Uzza<S>5798</S> put<S>7971</S> out his hand<S>3027</S> to hold<S>270</S> the ark,<S>727</S> because<S>3588</S> the oxen<S>1241</S> nearly upset<S>8058</S> [it.]


text:
And the anger<S>639</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> burned<S>2734</S> against Uzza,<S>5798</S> so He struck<S>5221</S> him down<S>5221</S> because<S>5921</S> <S>834</S> he put<S>7971</S> out his hand<S>3027</S> to the ark;<S>727</S> and he died<S>4191</S> there<S>8033</S> before<S>6440</S> God.<S>430</S>


text:
<pb/>Then David<S>1732</S> became<S>2734</S> angry<S>2734</S> because<S>3588</S> of the Lord's outburst<S>6555</S> <S>6556</S> against Uzza;<S>5798</S> and he called<S>7121</S> that place<S>4725</S> Perez-uzza to this<S>2088</S> day.<S>3117</S>


text:
And David<S>1732</S> was afraid<S>3372</S> of God<S>430</S> that day,<S>3117</S> saying,<S>559</S> "How<S>1963</S> can I bring<S>935</S> the ark<S>727</S> of God<S>430</S> [home] to me?"


text:
So David<S>1732</S> did not take<S>5493</S> the ark<S>727</S> with him to the city<S>5892</S> of David,<S>1732</S> but took<S>5186</S> it aside<S>5186</S> to the house<S>1004</S> of Obed-edom the Gittite.<S>1663</S>


text:
Thus the ark<S>727</S> of God<S>430</S> remained<S>3427</S> with the family<S>1004</S> of Obed-edom in his house<S>1004</S> three<S>7969</S> months;<S>2320</S> and the Lord<S>3068</S> blessed<S>1288</S> the family<S>1004</S> of Obed-edom with all<S>3605</S> that he had.


text:
<pb/>Now Hiram<S>2438</S> king<S>4428</S> of Tyre<S>6865</S> sent<S>7971</S> messengers<S>4397</S> to David<S>1732</S> with cedar<S>730</S> trees,<S>6086</S> masons,<S>2796</S> <S>7023</S> and carpenters,<S>2796</S> <S>6086</S> to build<S>1129</S> a house<S>1004</S> for him.


text:
And David<S>1732</S> realized<S>3045</S> that the Lord<S>3068</S> had established<S>3559</S> him as king<S>4428</S> over<S>5921</S> Israel,<S>3478</S> [and] that his kingdom<S>4438</S> was highly<S>4605</S> exalted,<S>5375</S> for the sake<S>5668</S> of His people<S>5971</S> Israel.<S>3478</S>


text:
<pb/>Then David<S>1732</S> took<S>3947</S> more<S>5750</S> wives<S>802</S> at Jerusalem,<S>3389</S> and David<S>1732</S> became<S>3205</S> the father<S>3205</S> of more<S>5750</S> sons<S>1121</S> and daughters.<S>1323</S>


text:
And these<S>428</S> are the names<S>8034</S> of the children<S>3205</S> born<S>3205</S> [to him] in Jerusalem:<S>3389</S> Shammua,<S>8051</S> Shobab,<S>7727</S> Nathan,<S>5416</S> Solomon,<S>8010</S>


text:
<pb/>When the Philistines<S>6430</S> heard<S>8085</S> that David<S>1732</S> had been anointed<S>4886</S> king<S>4428</S> over<S>5921</S> all<S>3605</S> Israel,<S>3478</S> all<S>3605</S> the Philistines<S>6430</S> went<S>5927</S> up in search<S>1245</S> of David;<S>1732</S> and David<S>1732</S> heard<S>8085</S> of it and went<S>3318</S> out against<S>6440</S> them.


text:
Now the Philistines<S>6430</S> had come<S>935</S> and made<S>6584</S> a raid<S>6584</S> in the valley<S>6010</S> of Rephaim.<S>7497</S>


text:
And David<S>1732</S> inquired<S>7592</S> of God,<S>430</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Shall I go<S>5927</S> up against<S>5921</S> the Philistines<S>6430</S>? And wilt Thou give<S>5414</S> them into my hand<S>3027</S>?" Then the Lord<S>3068</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "Go<S>5927</S> up, for I will give<S>5414</S> them into your hand.<S>3027</S>"


text:
So they came<S>5927</S> up to Baal-perazim, and David<S>1732</S> defeated<S>5221</S> them there;<S>8033</S> and David<S>1732</S> said,<S>559</S> "God<S>430</S> has broken<S>6555</S> through<S>6555</S> my enemies<S>340</S> by my hand,<S>3027</S> like the breakthrough<S>6556</S> of waters.<S>4325</S>" Therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> they named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> that place<S>4725</S> Baal-perazim.


text:
And they abandoned<S>5800</S> their gods<S>430</S> there;<S>8033</S> so David<S>1732</S> gave<S>559</S> the order<S>559</S> and they were burned<S>8313</S> with fire.<S>784</S>


text:
<pb/>And the Philistines<S>6430</S> made<S>6584</S> yet<S>5750</S> another<S>3254</S> raid<S>6584</S> in the valley.<S>6010</S>


text:
And David<S>1732</S> inquired<S>7592</S> again<S>5750</S> of God,<S>430</S> and God<S>430</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "You shall not go<S>5927</S> up after<S>310</S> them; circle<S>5437</S> around<S>5437</S> behind<S>4480</S> <S>5921</S> them, and come<S>935</S> at them in front<S>4136</S> of the balsam<S>1057</S> trees.<S>1057</S>


text:
"And it shall be when you hear<S>8085</S> the sound<S>6963</S> of marching<S>6807</S> in the tops<S>7218</S> of the balsam<S>1057</S> trees,<S>1057</S> then<S>227</S> you shall go<S>3318</S> out to battle,<S>4421</S> for God<S>430</S> will have gone<S>3318</S> out before<S>6440</S> you to strike<S>5221</S> the army<S>4264</S> of the Philistines.<S>6430</S>"


text:
And David<S>1732</S> did<S>6213</S> just<S>9201</S> as God<S>430</S> had commanded<S>6680</S> him, and they struck<S>5221</S> down<S>5221</S> the army<S>4264</S> of the Philistines<S>6430</S> from Gibeon<S>1391</S> even as far<S>5704</S> as Gezer.<S>1507</S>


text:
<pb/>Then the fame<S>8034</S> of David<S>1732</S> went<S>3318</S> out into all<S>3605</S> the lands;<S>776</S> and the Lord<S>3068</S> brought<S>5414</S> the fear<S>6343</S> of him on all<S>3605</S> the nations.<S>1471</S>


text:
<pb/>Now [David<S>1732</S>] built<S>6213</S> houses<S>1004</S> for himself in the city<S>5892</S> of David; and he prepared<S>3559</S> a place<S>4725</S> for the ark<S>727</S> of God,<S>430</S> and pitched<S>5186</S> a tent<S>168</S> for it.


text:
Then<S>227</S> David<S>1732</S> said,<S>559</S> "No<S>3808</S> one is to carry<S>5375</S> the ark<S>727</S> of God<S>430</S> but the Levites;<S>3881</S> for the Lord<S>3068</S> chose<S>977</S> them to carry<S>5375</S> the ark<S>727</S> of God,<S>430</S> and to minister<S>8334</S> to Him forever.<S>5704</S> <S>5769</S>"


text:
And David<S>1732</S> assembled<S>6950</S> all<S>3605</S> Israel<S>3478</S> at Jerusalem,<S>3389</S> to bring<S>5927</S> up the ark<S>727</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> to its place,<S>4725</S> which<S>834</S> he had prepared<S>3559</S> for it.


text:
And David<S>1732</S> gathered<S>622</S> together the sons<S>1121</S> of Aaron,<S>175</S> and the Levites: <S>3881</S>


text:
<pb/>of the sons<S>1121</S> of Kohath,<S>6955</S> Uriel<S>222</S> the chief,<S>8269</S> and<S>120</S> of his relatives;<S>251</S>

<pb/>of the sons<S>1121</S> of Merari,<S>4847</S> Asaiah<S>6222</S> the chief,<S>8269</S> and<S>220</S> of his relatives;<S>251</S>

<pb/>of the sons<S>1121</S> of Elizaphan,<S>469</S> Shemaiah<S>8098</S> the chief,<S>8269</S> and<S>200</S> of his relatives;<S>251</S>

<pb/>of the sons<S>1121</S> of Uzziel,<S>5816</S> Amminadab<S>5992</S> the chief,<S>8269</S> and<S>112</S> of his relatives.<S>251</S>


text:
<pb/>Then David<S>1732</S> called<S>7121</S> for Zadok<S>6659</S> and Abiathar<S>54</S> the priests,<S>3548</S> and for the Levites,<S>3881</S> for Uriel,<S>222</S> Asaiah,<S>6222</S> Joel,<S>3100</S> Shemaiah,<S>8098</S> Eliel,<S>447</S> and Amminadab,<S>5992</S>


text:
and said<S>559</S> to them, "You are the heads<S>7218</S> of the fathers' [households] of the Levites;<S>3881</S> consecrate<S>6942</S> yourselves both you and your relatives,<S>251</S> that you may bring<S>5927</S> up the ark<S>727</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> of Israel,<S>3478</S> to [the place] that I have prepared<S>3559</S> for it.


text:
"Because<S>3588</S> you did not [carry it] at the first,<S>7223</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> our God<S>430</S> made<S>6555</S> an outburst<S>6555</S> on us, for we did not seek<S>1875</S> Him according to the ordinance.<S>4941</S>"


text:
So the priests<S>3548</S> and the Levites<S>3881</S> consecrated<S>6942</S> themselves to bring<S>5927</S> up the ark<S>727</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> of Israel.<S>3478</S>


text:
And the sons<S>1121</S> of the Levites<S>3881</S> carried<S>5375</S> the ark<S>727</S> of God<S>430</S> on their shoulders,<S>3802</S> with the poles<S>4133</S> thereon<S>5921</S> as Moses<S>4872</S> had commanded<S>6680</S> according to the word<S>1697</S> of the Lord.<S>3068</S>


text:
<pb/>Then David<S>1732</S> spoke<S>559</S> to the chiefs<S>8269</S> of the Levites<S>3881</S> to appoint<S>5975</S> their relatives<S>251</S> the singers,<S>7891</S> with instruments<S>3627</S> of music,<S>7892</S> harps,<S>5035</S> lyres,<S>3658</S> loud-sounding cymbals,<S>4700</S> to raise<S>7311</S> sounds<S>6963</S> of joy.<S>8057</S>


text:
So the Levites<S>3881</S> appointed<S>5975</S> Heman<S>1968</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Joel,<S>3100</S> and from his relatives,<S>251</S> Asaph<S>623</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Berechiah;<S>1296</S> and from the sons<S>1121</S> of Merari<S>4847</S> their relatives,<S>251</S> Ethan<S>387</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Kushaiah,<S>6984</S>

<pb/>So the singers,<S>7891</S> Heman,<S>1968</S> Asaph,<S>623</S> and Ethan<S>387</S> [were appointed] to sound<S>8085</S> aloud cymbals<S>4700</S> of bronze;<S>5178</S>

<pb/>So [it was] David,<S>1732</S> with the elders<S>2205</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> and the captains<S>8269</S> over thousands,<S>505</S> who went<S>1980</S> to bring<S>5927</S> up the ark<S>727</S> of the covenant<S>1285</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> from the house<S>1004</S> of Obed-edom with joy.<S>8057</S>

And it came<S>1961</S> about because God<S>430</S> was helping<S>5826</S> the Levites<S>3881</S> who were carrying<S>5375</S> the ark<S>727</S> of the covenant<S>1285</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> that they sacrificed<S>2076</S> seven<S>7651</S> bulls<S>6499</S> and seven<S>7651</S> rams.<S>352</S>

Now David<S>1732</S> was clothed<S>3736</S> with a robe<S>4598</S> of fine<S>948</S> linen<S>948</S> with all<S>3605</S> the Levites<S>3881</S> who were carrying<S>5375</S> the ark,<S>727</S> and the singers<S>7891</S> and Chenaniah<S>3663</S> the leader<S>8269</S> of the singing<S>4853</S> [with] the singers.<S>7891</S> David<S>1732</S> also wore<S>5921</S> an ephod<S>646</S> of linen.<S>906</S>

<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about after<S>310</S> this,<S>3651</S> that Nahash<S>5176</S> the king<S>4428</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of Ammon<S>5983</S> died,<S>4191</S> and his son<S>1121</S> became<S>4427</S> king<S>4427</S> in his place.<S>8478</S>

Then David<S>1732</S> said,<S>559</S> "I will show<S>6213</S> kindness<S>2617</S> to Hanun<S>2586</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Nahash,<S>5176</S> because<S>3588</S> his father showed<S>1</S> kindness<S>6213</S> to me." So David<S>2617</S> sent<S>1732</S> messengers<S>7971</S> to console<S>4397</S> him concerning<S>5162</S> his father.

text:
But the princes<S>8269</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of Ammon<S>5983</S> said<S>559</S> to Hanun,<S>2586</S> "Do you think<S>5869</S> that David<S>1732</S> is honoring<S>3513</S> your father, in that he has sent<S>1</S> comforters<S>7971</S> to you?

text:
So Hanun<S>2586</S> took<S>3947</S> David's servants<S>5650</S> and shaved<S>1548</S> them, and cut<S>3772</S> off<S>3772</S> their garments<S>4063</S> in the middle<S>2677</S> as far<S>5704</S> as their hips,<S>4667</S> and sent<S>7971</S> them away.<S>7971</S>


text:
Then [certain persons] went<S>1980</S> and told<S>5046</S> David<S>1732</S> about<S>5921</S> the men.<S>376</S> And he sent<S>7971</S> to meet<S>7122</S> them, for the men<S>376</S> were greatly<S>3966</S> humiliated.<S>3637</S> And the king<S>4428</S> said,<S>559</S> "Stay<S>3427</S> at Jericho<S>3405</S> until<S>5704</S> <S>834</S> your beards<S>2206</S> grow,<S>6779</S> and [then] return.<S>7725</S>"

Now when Joab<S>3097</S> saw<S>7200</S> that the battle<S>4421</S> was set against<S>413</S> him in front<S>6440</S> and in the rear,<S>268</S> he selected<S>977</S> from all<S>3605</S> the choice<S>970</S> men of Israel<S>3478</S> and they arrayed<S>6186</S> themselves against<S>7122</S> the Arameans.<S>758</S>

But the remainder<S>3499</S> of the people<S>5971</S> he placed<S>5414</S> in the hand<S>3027</S> of Abshai<S>52</S> his brother;<S>251</S> and they arrayed<S>6186</S> themselves against<S>7122</S> the sons<S>1121</S> of Ammon.<S>5983</S>

And he said,<S>559</S> "If<S>518</S> the Arameans<S>758</S> are too<S>4480</S> strong<S>2388</S> for me, then you shall help<S>1961</S> <S>8668</S> me; but if<S>518</S> the sons<S>1121</S> of Ammon<S>5983</S> are too<S>4480</S> strong<S>2388</S> for you, then I will help<S>3467</S> you.

So Joab<S>3097</S> and the people<S>5971</S> who<S>834</S> were with him drew<S>5066</S> near<S>5066</S> to the battle<S>4421</S> against<S>6440</S> the Arameans,<S>758</S> and they fled<S>5127</S> before<S>4480</S> <S>6440</S> him.

When the sons<S>1121</S> of Ammon<S>5983</S> saw<S>7200</S> that the Arameans<S>758</S> fled,<S>5127</S> they also<S>1571</S> fled<S>5127</S> before<S>4480</S> <S>6440</S> Abshai<S>52</S> his brother,<S>251</S> and entered<S>935</S> the city.<S>5892</S> Then Joab<S>3097</S> came<S>935</S> to Jerusalem.<S>3389</S>

When it was told<S>5046</S> David,<S>1732</S> he gathered<S>622</S> all<S>3605</S> Israel<S>3478</S> together and crossed<S>5674</S> the Jordan,<S>3383</S> and came<S>935</S> upon them and drew<S>6186</S> up in formation<S>6186</S> against<S>413</S> them.

Then it happened<S>1961</S> in the spring,<S>8666</S> at the time<S>6256</S> when kings<S>4428</S> go<S>3318</S> out [to battle,] that Joab<S>3097</S> led<S>5090</S> out the army<S>6635</S> <S>2428</S> and ravaged<S>7843</S> the land<S>776</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of Ammon,<S>5983</S> and came<S>935</S> and besieged<S>6696</S> Rabbah.<S>7237</S> But David<S>1732</S> stayed<S>3427</S> at Jerusalem.<S>3389</S> And Joab<S>3097</S> struck<S>5221</S> Rabbah<S>7237</S> and overthrew<S>2040</S> it.


text:
And David<S>1732</S> took<S>3947</S> the crown<S>5850</S> of their king<S>4428</S> from his head,<S>7218</S> and he found<S>4672</S> it to weigh<S>4948</S> a talent<S>3603</S> of gold,<S>2091</S> and there was a precious<S>3368</S> stone<S>68</S> in it; and it was placed<S>1961</S> on David's head.<S>7218</S> And he brought<S>3318</S> out the spoil<S>7998</S> of the city,<S>5892</S> a very<S>3966</S> great<S>7235</S> amount.


text:
And he brought<S>3318</S> out the people<S>5971</S> who<S>834</S> [were] in it, and cut<S>7787</S> [them] with saws<S>4050</S> and with sharp<S>2757</S> instruments<S>2757</S> and with axes.<S>4050</S> And thus<S>3651</S> David<S>1732</S> did<S>6213</S> to all<S>3605</S> the cities<S>5892</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of Ammon.<S>5983</S> Then David<S>1732</S> and all<S>3605</S> the people<S>5971</S> returned<S>7725</S> [to] Jerusalem.<S>3389</S>


text:
Now it came<S>1961</S> about after<S>310</S> this,<S>3651</S> that war<S>4421</S> broke<S>5975</S> out at Gezer<S>1507</S> with the Philistines;<S>6430</S> then<S>227</S> Sibbecai<S>5444</S> the Hushathite<S>2843</S> killed<S>5221</S> Sippai,<S>5598</S> one of the descendants<S>3211</S> of the giants,<S>9571</S> and they were subdued.<S>3665</S>


text:
<pb/>And there was war<S>4421</S> with the Philistines<S>6430</S> again,<S>5750</S> and Elhanan<S>445</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Jair<S>3265</S> killed<S>5221</S> Lahmi<S>3902</S> the brother<S>251</S> of Goliath<S>1555</S> the Gittite,<S>1663</S> the shaft<S>6086</S> of whose spear<S>2595</S> [was] like a weaver's beam.<S>4500</S>


text:
<pb/>And again<S>5750</S> there was war<S>4421</S> at Gath,<S>1661</S> where there was a man<S>376</S> of [great] stature<S>4060</S> who had twenty-four fingers<S>676</S> and toes,<S>676</S> six<S>8337</S> [fingers on each hand] and six<S>8337</S> [toes on each foot;] and he also<S>1571</S> was descended<S>3205</S> from the giants.<S>9571</S>


text:
And when he taunted<S>2778</S> Israel,<S>3478</S> Jonathan<S>3083</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Shimea,<S>8092</S> David's brother,<S>251</S> killed<S>5221</S> him.


text:
<pb/>These<S>411</S> were descended<S>3205</S> from the giants<S>9571</S> in Gath,<S>1661</S> and they fell<S>5307</S> by the hand<S>3027</S> of David<S>1732</S> and by the hand<S>3027</S> of his servants.<S>5650</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Satan<S>7854</S> stood<S>5975</S> up against<S>5921</S> Israel<S>3478</S> and moved<S>5496</S> David<S>1732</S> to number<S>4487</S> Israel.<S>3478</S>


text:
So David<S>1732</S> said<S>559</S> to Joab<S>3097</S> and to the princes<S>8269</S> of the people,<S>5971</S> "Go,<S>1980</S> number<S>5608</S> Israel<S>3478</S> from Beersheba<S>884</S> even to Dan,<S>1835</S> and bring<S>935</S> me [word] that I may know<S>3045</S> their number.<S>4557</S>"


text:
And Joab<S>3097</S> said,<S>559</S> "May the Lord<S>3068</S> add<S>3254</S> to His people<S>5971</S> a hundred<S>3967</S> times<S>6471</S> as many as they are! But, my lord<S>113</S> the king,<S>4428</S> are they not all<S>3605</S> my lord<S>113</S>'s servants<S>5650</S>? Why<S>4100</S> does my lord seek<S>1245</S> this<S>2088</S> thing<S>2088</S>? Why<S>4100</S> should he be a cause<S>819</S> of guilt<S>819</S> to Israel<S>3478</S>?"


text:
<pb/>Nevertheless, the king's word<S>1697</S> prevailed<S>2388</S> against<S>5921</S> Joab.<S>3097</S> Therefore, Joab<S>3097</S> departed<S>3318</S> and went<S>1980</S> throughout all<S>3605</S> Israel,<S>3478</S> and came<S>935</S> to Jerusalem.<S>3389</S>


text:
And Joab<S>3097</S> gave<S>5414</S> the number<S>4557</S> of the census<S>4662</S> of [all<S>3605</S>] the people<S>5971</S> to David.<S>1732</S> And all Israel<S>3478</S> were 1,100,000 men<S>376</S> who drew<S>8025</S> the sword;<S>2719</S> and Judah<S>3063</S> [was] 470,000 men<S>376</S> who drew<S>8025</S> the sword.<S>2719</S>


text:
But he did not number<S>6485</S> Levi<S>3878</S> and Benjamin<S>1144</S> among<S>8432</S> them, for the king's command<S>1697</S> was abhorrent<S>8581</S> to Joab.<S>3097</S>


text:
And God<S>430</S> was displeased<S>7489</S> <S>5869</S> with this<S>2088</S> thing,<S>1697</S> so He struck<S>5221</S> Israel.<S>3478</S>


text:
<pb/>And David<S>1732</S> said<S>559</S> to God,<S>430</S> "I have sinned<S>2398</S> greatly,<S>3966</S> in that I have done<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> thing.<S>1697</S> But now,<S>6258</S> please<S>4994</S> take<S>5674</S> away<S>5674</S> the iniquity<S>5771</S> of Thy servant,<S>5650</S> for I have done<S>5528</S> very<S>3966</S> foolishly.<S>5528</S>"


text:
And the Lord<S>3068</S> spoke<S>1696</S> to Gad,<S>1410</S> David's seer,<S>2374</S> saying,<S>559</S>


text:
"Go<S>1980</S> and speak<S>1696</S> to David,<S>1732</S> saying,<S>559</S> 'Thus<S>3541</S> says<S>559</S> the Lord,<S>3068</S> "I offer<S>5186</S> you three<S>7969</S> things;<S>7969</S> choose<S>977</S> for yourself one<S>259</S> of them, that I may do<S>6213</S> [it] to you. "'"


text:
So Gad<S>1410</S> came<S>935</S> to David<S>1732</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "Thus<S>3541</S> says<S>559</S> the Lord,<S>3068</S> 'Take<S>6901</S> for yourself

text:
And David<S>1732</S> said<S>559</S> to Gad,<S>1410</S> "I am in great<S>3966</S> distress;<S>9503</S> please<S>4994</S> let me fall<S>5307</S> into the hand<S>3027</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> for His mercies<S>7356</S> are very<S>3966</S> great.<S>7227</S> But do not let me fall<S>5307</S> into the hand<S>3027</S> of man.<S>120</S>"


text:
So the Lord<S>3068</S> sent<S>5414</S> a pestilence<S>1698</S> on Israel;<S>3478</S> 70,000 men<S>376</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> fell.<S>5307</S>


text:
<pb/>And God<S>430</S> sent<S>7971</S> an angel<S>4397</S> to Jerusalem<S>3389</S> to destroy<S>7843</S> it; but as he was about to destroy<S>7843</S> [it,] the Lord<S>3068</S> saw<S>7200</S> and was sorry<S>5162</S> over<S>5921</S> the calamity,<S>9567</S> and said<S>559</S> to the destroying<S>7843</S> angel,<S>4397</S> "It is enough;<S>7227</S> now<S>6258</S> relax<S>7503</S> your hand.<S>3027</S>" And the angel<S>4397</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> was standing<S>5975</S> by the threshing<S>1637</S> floor<S>1637</S> of Ornan<S>771</S> the Jebusite.<S>2983</S>


text:
Then David<S>1732</S> lifted<S>5375</S> up his eyes<S>5869</S> and saw<S>7200</S> the angel<S>4397</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> standing<S>5975</S> between<S>996</S> earth<S>776</S> and heaven,<S>8064</S> with his drawn<S>8025</S> sword<S>2719</S> in his hand<S>3027</S> stretched<S>5186</S> out over<S>5921</S> Jerusalem.<S>3389</S> Then David<S>1732</S> and the elders,<S>2205</S> covered<S>3680</S> with sackcloth,<S>8242</S> fell<S>5307</S> on their faces.<S>6440</S>


text:
And David<S>1732</S> said<S>559</S> to God,<S>430</S> "Is it not I who commanded<S>559</S> to count<S>4487</S> the people<S>5971</S>? Indeed, I am the one who<S>834</S> has sinned<S>2398</S> and done<S>7489</S> very<S>7489</S> wickedly,<S>7489</S> but these<S>428</S> sheep,<S>6629</S> what<S>4100</S> have they done<S>6213</S>?

text:
<pb/>Then the angel<S>4397</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> commanded<S>559</S> Gad<S>1410</S> to say<S>559</S> to David,<S>1732</S> that David<S>1732</S> should go<S>5927</S> up and build<S>6965</S> an altar<S>4196</S> to the Lord<S>3068</S> on the threshing<S>1637</S> floor<S>1637</S> of Ornan<S>771</S> the Jebusite.<S>2983</S>


text:
So David<S>1732</S> went<S>5927</S> up at the word<S>1697</S> of Gad,<S>1410</S> which<S>834</S> he spoke<S>1696</S> in the name<S>8034</S> of the Lord.<S>3068</S>

Now Ornan<S>771</S> turned<S>7725</S> back<S>7725</S> and saw<S>7200</S> the angel,<S>4397</S> and his four<S>702</S> sons<S>1121</S> [who were] with him hid<S>2244</S> themselves. And Ornan<S>771</S> was threshing<S>1758</S> wheat.<S>2406</S>


text:
And as David<S>1732</S> came<S>935</S> to Ornan,<S>771</S> Ornan<S>771</S> looked<S>5027</S> and saw<S>7200</S> David,<S>1732</S> and went<S>3318</S> out from the threshing<S>1637</S> floor,<S>1637</S> and prostrated<S>7812</S> himself before David<S>1732</S> with his face<S>639</S> to the ground.<S>776</S>


text:
Then David<S>1732</S> said<S>559</S> to Ornan,<S>771</S> "Give<S>5414</S> me the site<S>4725</S> of [this] threshing<S>1637</S> floor,<S>1637</S> that I may build<S>1129</S> on it an altar<S>4196</S> to the Lord;<S>3068</S> for the full<S>4392</S> price<S>3701</S> you shall give<S>5414</S> it to me, that the plague<S>4046</S> may be restrained<S>6113</S> from the people.<S>5971</S>"


text:
And Ornan<S>771</S> said<S>559</S> to David,<S>1732</S> "Take<S>3947</S> [it] for yourself; and let my lord<S>113</S> the king<S>4428</S> do<S>6213</S> what<S>2896</S> is good<S>2896</S> in his sight.<S>5869</S> See,<S>7200</S> I will give<S>5414</S> the oxen<S>1241</S> for burnt<S>5930</S> offerings<S>5930</S> and the threshing<S>4173</S> sledges<S>4173</S> for wood<S>6086</S> and the wheat<S>2406</S> for the grain offering;<S>4503</S> I will give<S>5414</S> [it] all.<S>3605</S>"


text:
But King<S>4428</S> David<S>1732</S> said<S>559</S> to Ornan,<S>771</S> "No,<S>3808</S> but I will surely<S>7069</S> buy<S>7069</S> [it] for the full<S>4392</S> price;<S>3701</S> for I will not take<S>5375</S> what<S>834</S> is yours for the Lord,<S>3068</S> or offer<S>5927</S> a burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> which<S>2600</S> costs<S>2600</S> me nothing.<S>2600</S>"

So David<S>1732</S> gave<S>5414</S> Ornan<S>771</S> <S>600</S> shekels<S>8255</S> of gold<S>2091</S> by weight<S>4948</S> for the site.<S>4725</S>

Then David<S>1732</S> built<S>1129</S> an altar<S>4196</S> to the Lord<S>3068</S> there,<S>8033</S> and offered<S>5927</S> burnt<S>5930</S> offerings<S>5930</S> and peace<S>8002</S> offerings.<S>8002</S> And he called<S>7121</S> to the Lord<S>3068</S> and He answered<S>6030</S> him with fire<S>784</S> from heaven<S>8064</S> on the altar<S>4196</S> of burnt<S>5930</S> offering.<S>5930</S>

And the Lord<S>3068</S> commanded<S>559</S> the angel,<S>4397</S> and he put<S>7725</S> his sword<S>2719</S> back<S>7725</S> in its sheath.<S>5084</S>


text:
<pb/>At that time,<S>6256</S> when David<S>1732</S> saw<S>7200</S> that the Lord<S>3068</S> had answered<S>6030</S> him on the threshing<S>1637</S> floor<S>1637</S> of Ornan<S>771</S> the Jebusite,<S>2983</S> he offered<S>2076</S> sacrifice<S>2076</S> there.<S>8033</S>

For the tabernacle<S>4908</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> which<S>834</S> Moses<S>4872</S> had made<S>6213</S> in the wilderness,<S>4057</S> and the altar<S>4196</S> of burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> [were] in the high<S>1116</S> place<S>1116</S> at Gibeon<S>1391</S> at that time.<S>6256</S>

But David<S>1732</S> could<S>3201</S> not go<S>1980</S> before<S>6440</S> it to inquire<S>1875</S> of God,<S>430</S> for he was terrified<S>1204</S> by the sword<S>2719</S> of the angel<S>4397</S> of the Lord.<S>3068</S>

Then David<S>1732</S> said,<S>559</S> "This<S>2088</S> is the house<S>1004</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> God,<S>430</S> and this<S>2088</S> is the altar<S>4196</S> of burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> for Israel.<S>3478</S>"


text:
So David<S>1732</S> gave<S>559</S> orders<S>559</S> to gather<S>3664</S> the foreigners<S>1616</S> who<S>834</S> were in the land<S>776</S> of Israel,<S>3478</S> and he set<S>5975</S> stonecutters<S>2672</S> to hew<S>2672</S> out stones<S>68</S> to build<S>1129</S> the house<S>1004</S> of God.<S>430</S>


text:
And David<S>1732</S> prepared<S>3559</S> large<S>7230</S> quantities<S>7230</S> of iron<S>1270</S> to make the nails<S>4548</S> for the doors<S>1817</S> of the gates<S>8179</S> and for the clamps,<S>4226</S> and more<S>7230</S> bronze<S>5178</S> than could be weighed;<S>4948</S>

<pb/>And David<S>1732</S> said,<S>559</S> "My son<S>1121</S> Solomon<S>8010</S> is young<S>5288</S> and inexperienced,<S>7390</S> and the house<S>1004</S> that is to be built<S>1129</S> for the Lord<S>3068</S> shall be exceedingly<S>4605</S> magnificent,<S>1431</S> famous<S>8034</S> and glorious<S>8597</S> throughout all<S>3605</S> lands.<S>776</S> [Therefore] now<S>4994</S> I will make<S>3559</S> preparation<S>3559</S> for it."
