'Announced' in the Bible

When all the leaders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, David made an agreement with them in Hebron before the Lord. They anointed David king over Israel, just as the Lord had announced through Samuel.

David had announced, "Whoever first attacks the Jebusites will be appointed chief and commander." When Zeruiah's son Joab went up first, he became chief.

"Now, my son, may the Lord be with you! May you succeed and build a temple for the Lord your God, just as he announced you would.
