1Then all Israel^H3478 gathered^H6908 themselves to David^H1732 unto Hebron^H2275, saying^H559, Behold, we are thy bone^H6106 and thy flesh^H1320. 2In times^H8543 past^H8032, even when Saul^H7586 was king^H4428, it was thou that leddest out^H3318 and broughtest in^H935 Israel^H3478: and Jehovah^H3068 thy God^H430 said^H559 unto thee, Thou shalt be shepherd^H7462 of my people^H5971 Israel^H3478, and thou shalt be prince^H5057 over my people^H1571 Israel^H3478. 3So all the elders^H2205 of Israel^H3478 came^H935 to the king^H4428 to Hebron^H2275; and David^H1732 made^H3772 a covenant^H1285 with them in Hebron^H2275 before^H6440 Jehovah^H3068; and they anointed^H4886 David^H1732 king^H4428 over Israel^H3478, according to the word^H1697 of Jehovah^H3068 by^H3027 Samuel^H8050. 4And David^H1732 and all Israel^H3478 went^H3212 to Jerusalem^H3389 (the same is Jebus^H2982); and the Jebusites^H2983, the inhabitants^H3427 of the land^H776, were there. 5And the inhabitants^H3427 of Jebus^H2982 said^H559 to David^H1732, Thou shalt not come^H935 in hither. Nevertheless David^H1732 took^H3920 the stronghold^H4686 of Zion^H6726; the same is the city^H5892 of David^H1732. 6And David^H1732 said^H559, Whosoever smiteth^H5221 the Jebusites^H2983 first^H7223 shall be chief^H7218 and captain^H8269. And Joab^H3097 the son^H1121 of Zeruiah^H6870 went^H5927 up^H5927 first^H7223, and was made chief^H7218. 7And David^H1732 dwelt^H3427 in the stronghold^H4679; therefore they called^H7121 it the city^H5892 of David^H1732. 8And he built^H1129 the city^H5892 round about^H5439, from Millo^H4407 even round about^H5439; and Joab^H3097 repaired^H2421 the rest^H7605 of the city^H5892. 9And David^H1732 waxed^H3212 greater^H1980 and greater^H1419; for Jehovah^H3068 of hosts^H6635 was with him. 10Now these are the chief^H7218 of the mighty men^H1368 whom David^H1732 had, who showed themselves strong^H2388 with him in his kingdom^H4438, together with all Israel^H3478, to make him king^H4427, according to the word^H1697 of Jehovah^H3068 concerning Israel^H3478. 11And this is the number^H4557 of the mighty men^H1368 whom David^H1732 had: Jashobeam^H3434, the son of a Hachmonite^H2453, the chief^H7218 of the thirty^H7991; he lifted up^H5782 his spear^H2595 against three^H7969 hundred^H3967 and slew^H2491 them at one^H259 time^H6471. 12And after^H310 him was Eleazar^H499 the son^H1121 of Dodo^H1734, the Ahohite^H266, who was one of the three^H7969 mighty^H1368 men. 13He was with David^H1732 at Pasdammim^H6450, and there the Philistines^H6430 were gathered together^H622 to battle^H4421, where was a plot^H2513 of ground^H7704 full^H4392 of barley^H8184; and the people^H5971 fled^H5127 from before^H6440 the Philistines^H6430. 14And they stood^H3320 in the midst^H8432 of the plot^H2513, and defended^H5337 it, and slew^H5221 the Philistines^H6430; and Jehovah^H3068 saved^H3467 them by a great^H1419 victory^H8668. 15And three^H7969 of the thirty^H7970 chief^H7218 men went down^H3381 to the rock^H6697 to David^H1732, into the cave^H4631 of Adullam^H5725; and the host^H4264 of the Philistines^H6430 were encamped^H2583 in the valley^H6010 of Rephaim^H7497. 16And David^H1732 was then in the stronghold^H4686, and the garrison^H5333 of the Philistines^H6430 was then in Beth-lehem^H1035. 17And David^H1732 longed^H183, and said^H559, Oh that one would give me water^H4325 to drink^H8248 of the well^H953 of Beth-lehem^H1035, which is by the gate^H8179! 18And the three^H7969 brake through^H1234 the host^H4264 of the Philistines^H6430, and drew^H7579 water^H4325 out of the well^H953 of Beth-lehem^H1035, that was by the gate^H8179, and took^H5375 it, and brought^H935 it to David^H1732: but David^H1732 would^H14 not drink^H8354 thereof, but poured it out^H5258 unto Jehovah^H3068, 19and said^H559, My God^H430 forbid^H2486 it me, that I should do^H6213 this^H2063: shall I drink^H8354 the blood^H1818 of these men^H582 that have put their lives in jeopardy^H5315? for with the jeopardy of their lives^H5315 they brought^H935 it. Therefore he would^H14 not drink^H8354 it. These things did^H6213 the three^H7969 mighty^H1368 men. 20And Abishai^H52, the brother^H251 of Joab^H3097, he was chief^H7218 of the three^H7969; for he lifted up^H5782 his spear^H2595 against three^H7969 hundred^H3967 and slew^H2491 them, and had a name^H8034 among the three^H7969. 21Of the three^H7969, he was more honorable^H3513 than the two^H8147, and was made their captain^H8269: howbeit he attained^H935 not to the first three^H7969. 22Benaiah^H1141 the son^H1121 of Jehoiada^H3077, the son^H1121 of a valiant^H2428 man^H376 of Kabzeel^H6909, who had done mighty^H7227 deeds^H6467, he slew^H5221 the two^H8147 sons^H739 of Ariel of Moab^H4124: he went down^H3381 also and slew^H5221 a lion^H738 in^H8432 the midst of a pit^H953 in time^H3117 of snow^H7950. 23And he slew^H5221 an Egyptian^H4713, a man^H376 of great stature^H4060, five^H2568 cubits^H520 high; and in the Egyptian's^H4713 hand^H3027 was a spear^H2595 like a weaver's^H707 beam^H4500; and he went down^H3381 to him with a staff^H7626, and plucked^H1497 the spear^H2595 out of the Egyptian's^H4713 hand^H3027, and slew^H2026 him with his own spear^H2595. 24These things did^H6213 Benaiah^H1141 the son^H1121 of Jehoiada^H3077, and had a name^H8034 among the three^H7969 mighty^H1368 men. 25Behold^H2009, he was more honorable^H3513 than the thirty^H7970, but he attained^H935 not to the first three^H7969: and David^H1732 set^H7760 him over his guard^H4928. 26Also the mighty men^H1368 of the armies^H2428: Asahel^H6214 the brother^H251 of Joab^H3097, Elhanan^H445 the son^H1121 of Dodo^H1734 of Beth-lehem^H1035, 27Shammoth^H8054 the Harorite^H2033, Helez^H2503 the Pelonite^H6397, 28Ira^H5896 the son^H1121 of Ikkesh^H6142 the Tekoite^H8621, Abiezer^H44 the Anathothite^H6069, 29Sibbecai^H5444 the Hushathite^H2843, Ilai^H5866 the Ahohite^H266, 30Maharai^H4121 the Netophathite^H5200, Heled^H2466 the son^H1121 of Baanah^H1196 the Netophathite^H5200, 31Ithai^H863 the son^H1121 of Ribai^H7380 of Gibeah^H1390 of the children^H1121 of Benjamin^H1144, Benaiah^H1141 the Pirathonite^H6553, 32Hurai^H2360 of the brooks^H5158 of Gaash^H1608, Abiel^H22 the Arbathite^H6164, 33Azmaveth^H5820 the Baharumite^H978, Eliahba^H455 the Shaalbonite^H8170, 34the sons^H1121 of Hashem^H2044 the Gizonite^H1493, Jonathan^H3129 the son^H1121 of Shagee^H7681 the Hararite^H2043, 35Ahiam^H279 the son^H1121 of Sacar^H7940 the Hararite^H2043, Eliphal^H465 the son^H1121 of Ur^H218, 36Hepher^H2660 the Mecherathite^H4382, Ahijah^H281 the Pelonite^H6397, 37Hezro^H2695 the Carmelite^H3761, Naarai^H5293 the son^H1121 of Ezbai^H229, 38Joel^H3100 the brother^H251 of Nathan^H5416, Mibhar^H4006 the son^H1121 of Hagri^H1905, 39Zelek^H6768 the Ammonite^H5984, Naharai^H5171 the Berothite^H1307, the armorbearer^H5375 of Joab^H3097 the son^H1121 of Zeruiah^H6870, 40Ira^H5896 the Ithrite^H3505, Gareb^H1619 the Ithrite^H3505, 41Uriah^H223 the Hittite^H2850, Zabad^H2066 the son^H1121 of Ahlai^H304, 42Adina^H5721 the son^H1121 of Shiza^H7877 the Reubenite^H7206, a chief^H7218 of the Reubenites^H7206, and thirty^H7970 with him, 43Hanan^H2605 the son^H1121 of Maacah^H4601, and Joshaphat^H3146 the Mithnite^H4981, 44Uzzia^H5814 the Ashterathite^H6254, Shama^H8091 and Jeiel^H3273 the sons^H1121 of Hotham^H2369 the Aroerite^H6200, 45Jediael^H3043 the son^H1121 of Shimri^H8113, and Joha^H3109 his brother^H251, the Tizite^H8491, 46Eliel^H447 the Mahavite^H4233, and Jeribai^H3403, and Joshaviah^H3145, the sons^H1121 of Elnaam^H493, and Ithmah^H3495 the Moabite^H4125, 47Eliel^H447, and Obed^H5744, and Jaasiel^H3300 the Mezobaite^H4677.
