Thematic Bible: To the men of jabesh-gilead

And David will send messengers to the men of Jabesh-Gilead, and he will say to them, Blessed ye to Jehovah, who did this mercy with your lord, with Saul, and ye will bury him. And now Jehovah will do with you mercy and truth: and I also will do you this good, because ye did this word. And now your hands shall be strengthened, and be ye for sons of strength: for Saul your lord died, and also the house of Judah anointed me for king over them.
