'Reigned' in the Bible
Now these are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king of the sons of Israel reigned. Bela was the son of Beor, and the name of his city was Dinhabah.
Six were born to him in Hebron, and there he reigned seven years and six months. And in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years.
So David reigned over all Israel; and he administered justice and righteousness for all his people.
The period which he reigned over Israel was forty years; he reigned in Hebron seven years and in Jerusalem thirty-three years.
Then he died in a ripe old age, full of days, riches and honor; and his son Solomon reigned in his place.
