And David will go and take the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan, his son, from the lords of JabeshGilead, who stole them from the street of the House of Shan, where the rovers hung them there in the day the rovers struck Saul in Gilboa:

And he will bring up from thence the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son: and they will gather the bones of those being hung.

And they will bury the bones of Saul, and Jonathan his son, in the land of Benjamin in Zelzah in the grave of Kish his father: and they will do all which the king commanded. And God will hear for the land after this.

And yet there will be war to the rovers with Israel; and David will go down, and his servants with him, and they will fight with the rovers: and David will be faint

And Ishbi-Benob who was from the children of Rephaim, and the weight of his spear three hundred weight of brass, and he being girded with a new one, and he will say to strike David.

And Abishai son of Zeruiah will help for him. and he will strike the rover and kill him. Then David's men sware to him, saying, Thou shalt no more go forth with us to war, and thou shalt not quench the light of Israel.

And it will be after this, and there will be war yet in Gob with the rovers: then Sibbechai the Hushathite struck Saph who was of the children of Rephaim.

And there will be yet war in Gob with the rovers, and Elhanan, son of Jaare-Oregim of the House of Bread, will strike Goliah the Gathite, and the wood of his spear as the beam of those weaving.

And there will be yet war in Gath, and there will be a man of Midian, and the fingers of his hands and the toes of his feet, six and six; twenty and four of number: and also he child to Rephah

And he will reproach Israel, and Jonathan, son of Shimeab, David's brother, will strike him.

Those four were born to Rephah in Oath, and they will fall by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.

And David will speak to Jehovah the words of this song in the day Jehovah delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul:

And he will say, Jehovah my rock and my fastness and my deliverer;

The God of my rock; I will trust in him: My shield and the horn of my salvation, my height and my refuge; My saviour; thou wilt save me from violence.

Praising, I will call Jehovah and shall be saved from mine enemies.

For the breakers of death surrounded me The torrents of Beilal will terrify me;

In straits to me I will call Jehovah, And to God will I call, And he will hear my voice from his temple, And my cry in his ears.

And the earth will shake and tremble, The foundation of the heavens will be disturbed, And they will shake, for it kindled to him.

He will incline the heavens and come down; And darkness under his feet

And he will ride upon a cherub and fly: And he will be seen upon the wings of the wind.

And he will set darkness round about him for booths, The gatherings of waters the darkness of clouds.

Jehovah will thunder from the heavens, And the Most High will give his voice.

He will send arrows and scatter them lightning, and put them in commotion.

The torrents of the sea will be seen, The foundations of the habitable globe will be uncovered, In the rebuke of Jehovah, from the breath of the spirit of his anger.

He will send from height, he will take me; He will draw me out of many waters:

He will deliver me from my strong enemy, From them hating me, for they were strong above me.

They will anticipate me in the day of misfortune, And Jehovah will be a support to me:

And he will bring me forth to a wide place; He will deliver me for he delighted in me.

Jehovah will recompense me according to my justice: According to the cleanness of my hands he turned back to me.

For all his judgments before me, And his laws I will not depart from them.

And I will be blameless to him, and I shall be washed from mine iniquity.

Jehovah will turn back to me according to my justice: According to my cleanness before his eyes.

With the merciful thou wilt be merciful, With the perfect man thou wilt be perfect

With the chosen thou wilt be chosen, And with the perverse thou wilt be unseasoned.

And the people of affliction thou wilt save: And thine eyes upon the lifted-up, thou wilt humble.

For thou my light, O Jehovah: And Jehovah will enlighten my darkness.

For in thee will I run, being pressed In my God will I leap over a wall.

The Strong One strengthening me with strength: And he will leave his way blameless.

Setting my feet as the hinds: And upon the heights will he cause me to stand.

And thou wilt give to me the shield of thy salvation, and thine answer will multiply me.

Thou wilt enlarge my steps under me, And my joints were not unsteady.

I will pursue mine enemies and destroy them I will not turn back even to finishing them.

And I will consume them and crush them, and they shall not be raised up.

Thou wilt fasten me together with strength for the war, Thou wilt subdue under me him rising up against me.

And the neck of mine enemies wilt thou give to me Those hating me, and I will cut them oft

They will look, and no saviour To Jehovah, and he answered them not

And I will rub them as the dust of the earth: As the mire of the streets I will stamp them, I will beat them:

And thou wilt save me from the strifes of my people, Thou wilt watch me for the head of nations: The people I have not known shall serve me.

The sons of the stranger will lie to me: For the hearing of the ear they will hear to me.

And bringing me out from mine enemies lifting me up from them rising up against me: From the man of violence thou wilt deliver me.

For this will I praise thee, O Jehovah, in the nations, to thy name will I play on the harp.

And as the light of the morning the sun will rise: the morning not dense; from the shining of the rain bringing forth herbage from the earth.

For not thus my house with the Strong One, for he set to me an eternal covenant, prepared in all, and watched: for all my salvation and delight will he not bring forth.

And Belial as the thorn thrusting out are all they, for they will not be taken by the hand.

And after him Eleazar son of Dodo, son of Ahohi, among the three mighty with David in their upbraiding the rovers; they were gathered together there to war, and the men of Israel will go up.

He arose, and he will strike against the rovers till that his hand will be weary, and his hand will cleave to the sword: and Jehovah will do a great salvation in that day; and they sat down behind him only to strip off.

And after him, Shammah, son of Aga the Hararite. And the rovers will be gathered together to live; and there will be there a portion of the field full of lentiles: and the people fled from the face of the rovers.

And he will stand in the midst of the portion, and he will take it away, and he will strike the rovers: and Jehovah will do a great salvation.

And three of the thirty heads will go down and come to the harvest, to David, to the cave of Adullam: and the wild beasts, the rovers, encamped in the valley of Rephaim.

And David will desire and say, Who will give me to drink waters from the well of the House of Bread, which is in the gate?

And the three mighty will break forth through the camp of the rovers, and draw waters from the well of the House of Bread, which is in the gate, and they will lift up and bring to David: and he would not drink them, and he will pour them out to Jehovah.

And he will say, Far be it to me, O Jehovah, my doing this the blood. of the men going with their souls: and he would not drink them. These did the three mighty.

Above the three was he not honored? and he will be to them for chief: and he came not even to the three.

And he struck a man, an Egyptian, who was seeing; and in the hand of the Egyptian a spear; and he went down to him with a rod, and he will pluck the spear out of the Egyptian's hand and kill him with his spear.

He was honored above the thirty, and to the three he came not. And David will set him to his audience.

And the anger of Jehovah will add to kindle against Israel, and he stimulated David against them, saying, Go, number Israel and Judah.

And the king will say to Joab, chief of the army which was with him, Go now, up and down through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan and even to the Well of the Oath, and review ye the people, and I shall know the number of the people.

And Joab will say to the king, Jehovah thy God will add to the people as they and as they a hundred times, and the eyes of my lord the king seeing: and my lord the king, wherefore delights he in this word?

And the king's word will be strong to Joab and to the chiefs of his army. And Joab went forth and the chiefs of his army before the king to review the people Israel.

And they will pass over Jordan, and they will encamp in Aroer, the right hand of the city which is in the midst of the torrent of Gad, and towards Jazer:

And they will come to Gilead and to the land of Tahtim-Hodshi; and they will come to Dan-Jaan, and round about to Zidon.

And they will come to the fortress of Tyre, and all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites; and they will go forth to the south of Judah to the Well of the Oath.

And they will turn aside through all the land, and they will come from the end of nine months and twenty days to Jerusalem.

And Joab will give the number of the reviewing of the people to the king: and there will be of Israel eight hundred thousand men of strength drawing sword; and the men of Judah, five hundred thousand men.

And the heart of David will strike him after he thus reviewed the people. And David will say to Jehovah, I sinned greatly in what I did: and now, O Jehovah, now pass by the iniquity of thy servant, for I was very foolish.

And David will rise in the morning, and the word of Jehovah was to Gad the prophet, seer of David, saying,

Go and speak to David, Thus said Jehovah, Three I lay upon thee: choose to thee one from them, and I will do to thee.

And Gad will come to David and announce to him, and say to him, Shall seven years of famine come to thee in thy land? and if three mouths to flee before thine adversaries, they pursuing thee? and if death to be three days in thy land? now know, and see what word I shall turn back to him sending me.

And David will say to Gad, Straits to me exceedingly: now we will fall into the hand of Jehovah, for many his compassions; and into the hand of man I will not fall.

And Jehovah will give death in Israel from the morning and even to the time of the appointment; and from the people will die from Dan and even to the Well of the Oath, seventy thousand men.

And the messenger will stretch forth his hand to destroy Jerusalem, and Jehovah will lament for the evil, and he will say to the messenger destroying among the people, Much now: let go thy hand. And the messenger of Jehovah was near the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

And David will say to Jehovah, in his seeing the messenger smiting the people, and he will say, Behold, I sinned and acted perversely; and these sheep, what did they? Now shall thy hand be upon me and upon my father's house.

And Gad will come to David in that day and say to him, Go up, raise up an altar to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

And David will go up, according to the word of Gad, as Jehovah commanded.

And Araunah will look forth and see the king and his servants passing over to him: and Araunah will go forth and worship to the king, his face to the earth.

And Araunah will say, Wherefore came my lord the king to his servant? and David will say, To buy from thee the threshing-floor to build an altar to Jehovah, and the slaughter shall be withheld from above the people.

And Araunah will say to David, My lord the king shall take and bring up the good in his eyes: see, the oxen for the burnt-offering, and the threshing-rollers, and the instruments of the oxen for wood.

And Araunah gave all to the king for the king. And Araunah will say to the king, Jehovah thy God will take pleasure in thee.

And the king will say to Araunah, Nay, but buying, I will buy of thee at a price; and I will not bring up to Jehovah my God a burnt-offering gratuitously. And David will buy the threshing-floor and the oxen for the silver of fifty shekels.

And David will build there an altar to Jehovah, and he will bring up burnt-offerings and peace. And Jehovah will be entreated for the land, and the slaughter will be withheld from Israel.

And king David was old, going in days; and they will cover him with garments, and he will not be warm.

And his servants will say to him, They shall seek for my lord the king a girl, a virgin, and she standing before the king, and she shall be to him an associate, and lying in thy bosom, and it shall be warm to my lord the king.

And they will seek a fair girl in all the bound of Israel, and they will find Abishag the Shunamite, and they will bring her to the king.

And the girl fair, even exceedingly, and she will be to the king an associate, and she will serve him: and the king knew her not

And Adonijah, son of Haggith being lifted up, saying, I will reign; and he will make to himself chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.

And his words will be with Joab, son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest; and they will help after Adonijah.

And Adonijah will sacrifice sheep and oxen and the fatling, by the stone of Zoheleth, which is next the fountain of the fuller, and he will call all his brethren the king's sons, and for all the men of Judah the king's servants:

And Nathan will say to Bathsheba, saying, Didst thou not hear that Adonijah son of Haggith reigned, and David our lord knew not?

Come now, advising, I will now advise thee, and save thou thy soul and the soul of thy son Solomon.

Behold thee yet speaking with the king, and I will come in after thee and complete thy words.
