2 Samuel 2:4-7 - David Anointed King Over Judah At Hebron

4 And the men of Judah came, and they anointed David king over the house of Judah there. And they told David, saying, The men of Jabesh-gilead buried Saul.

5 And David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh-gilead. And he said to them, Blessed are you of Jehovah, that you have shown this kindness to your lord, to Saul, and have buried him. 6 And now may Jehovah do kindness and truth to you. And I also do good to you, because you have done this thing. 7 And now let your hands be strengthened, and be brave. For your master Saul is dead, and also the house of Judah has anointed me king over them.
