2 Samuel 5:1-5 - David Anointed As King Over All Of Israel
1 All the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said to him: We are your own flesh and blood. 2 For a long time when Saul was still our king, you led the people of Israel in battle. Jehovah promised you that you would lead his people and be their ruler.
3 All the elders of Israel came to King David at Hebron. He made a sacred alliance with them. They anointed him, and he became king of Israel.
4 David was thirty years old when he became king. He ruled for forty years. 5 In Hebron he ruled Judah for seven years and six months. In Jerusalem he ruled for thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.
