2:1 The kingdom of David
2 After that was over, David inquired from Yahweh, “Should I go into one of Yehudah’s (Judah’s) cities?”
“Yes, go,” Yahweh answered.
“Where should I go?” David asked again.
2 So David took his two wives (Ahinoam the Yizre’eli and Avigayil the widow of Naval the Karmeli)[ref] and went there. 3 He took his men who were with him, along with their families, and went to live in Hevron and the surrounding towns. 4 Then the Yehudah leaders came and anointed David as king over Yehudah.
They told him, “It was the men of Yavesh-Gilead who buried Sha’ul (Saul).”[ref] 5 So David sent messengers to Yavesh-Gilead to tell them, “May Yahweh bless you all because you showed that kindness to your master Sha’ul to bury him respectfully. 6 Now may Yahweh treat you all with kindness and faithfulness, and I myself will also be good to you because you did that. 7 Meanwhile now that Sha’ul your master is dead, continue to be courageous and become brave warriors as Yehudah has anointed me as king over their tribe.
