David was thirty years old when he began to reign. He reigned forty years.

In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

Again David gathered every chosen one in Israel, thirty thousand.

And three of the thirty chief men went down and came to David in the harvest time into the cave of Adullam. And the troop of the Philistines pitched in the Valley of the Giants.

He was more honorable than the thirty, but he did not attain to the first three. And David set him over his guard.

Asahel the brother of Joab was of the thirty; Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem;

Uriah the Hittite; thirty-seven in all.
