BrLXX Καὶ ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην ὄντος Σαοὺλ βασιλέως ἐφʼ ἡμῖν, σὺ ἦσθα ὁ ἐξάγων καὶ εἰσάγων τὸν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς σὲ, σὺ ποιμανεῖς τὸν λαόν μου τὸν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ σὺ ἔσῃ εἰς ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ἰσραήλ.
(Kai eⱪthes kai tritaʸn ontos Saʼoul basileōs efʼ haʸmin, su aʸstha ho exagōn kai eisagōn ton Israaʸl; kai eipe Kurios pros se, su poimaneis ton laon mou ton Israaʸl, kai su esaʸ eis haʸgoumenon epi ton laon mou Israaʸl.)
5:2 you were the one: In the ancient world, a covenant relationship (a suzerain-vassal treaty) was sometimes formed between subjects (the vassals) and a ruler (the suzerain) because of past aid, often rescue from enemies (see Judg 8:22, Gideon; Judg 11:8-11, Jephthah; 1 Sam 11:1-15, Saul). This type of relationship is the background for the covenant concept in Scripture: God was Israel’s covenant Lord because he had freed them from Egypt (cp. Exod 19:4; 20:1-2).
• the Lord told you: Israel was already aware of God’s selection of David (cp. 2 Sam 3:9).
• shepherd of my people Israel: This phrase is quoted in Matt 2:6 when King Herod asks the leading priests about the prophecies concerning the Messiah.
