And they made war with the Hagarites, with Jetur, and Naphish, and Nodab;

$$ CH1 5:20
and they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them; for they cried to God in the battle, and he was intreated of them, because they put their trust in him.

$$ CH1 5:21
And they took away their cattle: their camels fifty thousand, and two hundred and fifty thousand sheep, and two thousand asses, and a hundred thousand human souls.

$$ CH1 5:22
For there fell down many slain, for the war was of God. And they dwelt in their stead until the captivity.

$$ CH1 5:23
And the children of the half tribe of Manasseh dwelt in the land, from Bashan as far as Baal-Hermon and Senir, and mount Hermon; they were many.

And Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he committed against Jehovah, because of the word of Jehovah which he kept not, and also for having inquired of the spirit of Python, asking counsel of it;

$$ CH1 10:14
and he asked not counsel of Jehovah; therefore he slew him, and transferred the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.

$$ CH1 11:1
¶ And all Israel assembled themselves to David to Hebron, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.

$$ CH1 11:2
Even aforetime, even when Saul was king, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel; and Jehovah thy God said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over my people Israel.

$$ CH1 11:3
And all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Jehovah; and they anointed David king over Israel according to the word of Jehovah through Samuel.

$$ CH1 11:4
And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.

$$ CH1 11:5
And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come in hither. But David took the stronghold of Zion, which is the city of David.

$$ CH1 11:6
And David said, Whoever smites the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. And Joab the son of Zeruiah went first up, and was chief.

$$ CH1 11:7
And David dwelt in the stronghold; therefore they called it the city of David.

$$ CH1 11:8
And he built the city round about, even from the Millo round about; and Joab renewed the rest of the city.

$$ CH1 11:9
And David became continually greater; and Jehovah of hosts was with him.

$$ CH1 11:10
And these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who shewed themselves valiant with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of Jehovah concerning Israel.

$$ CH1 11:11
And this is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of Hachmoni, the chief of the captains; he brandished his spear against three hundred, slain [by him] at one time.

$$ CH1 11:12
And after him, Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite; he was one of the three mighty men.

$$ CH1 11:13
He was with David at Pas-dammim, where the Philistines were gathered together to battle; and there was [there] a plot of ground full of barley; and the people had fled from before the Philistines.

$$ CH1 11:14
And they stood in the midst of the plot and delivered it, and smote the Philistines; and Jehovah wrought a great deliverance.

$$ CH1 11:15
And three of the thirty chiefs went down to the rock to David, to the cave of Adullam, when the army of the Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim.

$$ CH1 11:16
And David was then in the stronghold; and the Philistines' garrison was then at Bethlehem.

$$ CH1 11:17
And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me to drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, which is in the gate!

$$ CH1 11:18
And the three broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, which is in the gate, and took it, and brought it to David; David however would not drink of it, but poured it out to Jehovah.

$$ CH1 11:19
And he said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this thing! should I drink the blood of these men [who went] at the risk of their lives? for at the risk of their lives they brought it. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men.

$$ CH1 11:20
And Abishai the brother of Joab, he was the chief of three; and he brandished his spear against three hundred and slew them; and he had a name among the three.

$$ CH1 11:21
Of the three he was more honourable than the two, and he was their captain; but he did not attain to the [first] three.

$$ CH1 11:22
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man, great in exploits, of Kabzeel: he it was that smote two lions of Moab; and he went down and smote a lion in the midst of a pit on a snowy day.

$$ CH1 11:23
He also smote the Egyptian, a man of stature, five cubits high: and in the Egyptian's hand was a spear like a weaver's beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.

$$ CH1 11:24
These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he had a name among the three mighty men.

$$ CH1 11:25
Behold, he was honoured above the thirty, but he did not attain to the [first] three. And David set him in his council.

$$ CH1 11:26
And the valiant men of the forces were: Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,

$$ CH1 11:27
Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,

$$ CH1 11:41
Uriah the Hittite, Zabad the son of Ahlai,

$$ CH1 11:42
Adina the son of Shiza the Reubenite, a captain of the Reubenites, and thirty with him;

$$ CH1 11:43
Hanan the son of Maachah, and Joshaphat the Mithnite,

$$ CH1 11:44
Uzzia the Ashtarothite, Shama and Jeiel the sons of Hotham the Aroerite,

$$ CH1 11:45
Jediael the son of Shimri, and Joha his brother, the Tizite,

$$ CH1 11:46
Eliel of Mahavim, and Jeribai, and Joshaviah, the sons of Elnaam, and Jithmah the Moabite,

$$ CH1 11:47
Eliel, and Obed, and Jaasiel the Mezobaite.

$$ CH1 12:1
¶ Now these are they that came to David to Ziklag, while he kept still close because of Saul the son of Kish; and they were among the mighty men who helped him in the conflict;

$$ CH1 12:2
armed with bows, using both the right hand and the left with stones and with arrows on the bow; [they were] of Saul's brethren of Benjamin:

$$ CH1 12:3
the chief Ahiezer, and Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; and Jeziel, and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; and Berachah, and Jehu the Anathothite,

$$ CH1 12:4
and Jishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the thirty, and over the thirty; and Jeremiah, and Jahaziel, and Johanan, and Jozabad the Gederathite.

$$ CH1 12:5
Eluzai, and Jerimoth, and Bealiah, and Shemariah, and Shephatiah the Haruphite;

$$ CH1 12:6
Elkanah, and Jishijah, and Azareel, and Joezer, and Jashobeam, the Korahites;

$$ CH1 12:7
and Joelah, and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.

$$ CH1 12:8
And of the Gadites, there separated themselves to David in the stronghold in the wilderness mighty men of valour, men fit for the service of war, armed with shield and spear; whose faces were [like] the faces of lions, and who were swift as the gazelles upon the mountains:

$$ CH1 12:9
Ezer the first, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,

$$ CH1 12:10
Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,

$$ CH1 12:11
Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,

$$ CH1 12:12
Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,

$$ CH1 12:13
Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.

$$ CH1 12:14
These were of the sons of Gad, captains of the host: one of the least was over a hundred, and the greatest over a thousand.

$$ CH1 12:15
These are they that went over Jordan in the first month, when it overflows all its banks, and they put to flight all [them] of the valleys, toward the east and toward the west.

$$ CH1 12:16
And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the stronghold to David.

$$ CH1 12:17
And David went out to meet them, and answered and said to them, If ye come peaceably to me to help me, my heart shall be knit unto you; but if to betray me to mine enemies, seeing there is no wrong in my hands, the God of our fathers see [it] and rebuke [it].

$$ CH1 12:18
And the Spirit came upon Amasai, the chief of the captains, [and he said,] Thine [are we], David, And with thee, thou son of Jesse: Peace, peace be to thee! And peace be to thy helpers! For thy God helps thee. And David received them, and made them chiefs of bands.

$$ CH1 12:19
And there fell some of Manasseh to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle: but they helped them not; for the lords of the Philistines upon deliberation sent him away, saying, He will fall to his master Saul at the peril of our heads.

$$ CH1 12:20
As he went away to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh: Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zilthai, captains of the thousands that were of Manasseh.

$$ CH1 12:21
And they helped David in his expeditions; for they were all mighty men of valour, and were captains in the host.

$$ CH1 12:22
For day by day there came [men] to David to help him, until it was a great camp, like the camp of God.

$$ CH1 12:23
And this is the number of the men equipped for military service, who came to David to Hebron, to transfer the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of Jehovah.

$$ CH1 12:24
The children of Judah that bore shield and spear were six thousand eight hundred, equipped for military service.

$$ CH1 12:25
Of the children of Simeon, mighty men of valour for war, seven thousand one hundred.

$$ CH1 12:26
Of the children of Levi four thousand six hundred.

$$ CH1 12:27
And Jehoiada the prince of Aaron, and with him were three thousand seven hundred;

$$ CH1 12:28
and Zadok, a valiant young man, and his father's house two and twenty chief men.

$$ CH1 12:29
And of the children of Benjamin, the brethren of Saul, three thousand; but hitherto the greater part of them had adhered to the house of Saul.

$$ CH1 12:30
And of the children of Ephraim twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty men of valour, men of name in their fathers' houses.

$$ CH1 12:31
And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, who were expressed by name, to come and make David king.

$$ CH1 12:32
And of the children of Issachar, who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their bidding.

$$ CH1 12:33
Of Zebulun, such as went forth in the host, armed for war with all weapons of war, fifty thousand, keeping rank without double heart.

$$ CH1 12:34
And of Naphtali a thousand captains, and with them thirty-seven thousand with shield and spear.

$$ CH1 12:35
And of the Danites armed for war twenty-eight thousand six hundred.

$$ CH1 12:36
And of Asher such as went forth in the host, to set themselves in battle array, forty thousand.

$$ CH1 12:37
And from the other side of the Jordan, of the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and of the half tribe of Manasseh, with all manner of weapons of war for battle, a hundred and twenty thousand.

$$ CH1 12:38
All of them men of war, keeping rank in battle array, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.

$$ CH1 12:39
And there they were with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brethren had prepared for them;

$$ CH1 12:40
and those too that were near them, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought food on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen; provisions of meal, fig-cakes and raisin-cakes, and wine and oil, and oxen and sheep, abundantly; for there was joy in Israel.

$$ CH1 13:1
¶ And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds, with every prince.

$$ CH1 13:2
And David said to all the congregation of Israel, If it seem good to you, and it be of Jehovah our God, let us send abroad to our brethren everywhere, that are left in all the lands of Israel, and with them to the priests and Levites in their cities and suburbs, that they may gather themselves to us;

$$ CH1 13:3
and let us bring again the ark of our God to us; for we inquired not of it in the days of Saul.

$$ CH1 13:4
And all the congregation said that they should do so; for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

$$ CH1 13:5
And David assembled all Israel from the Shihor of Egypt unto the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath-jearim.

$$ CH1 13:6
And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, to Kirjath-jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God, of Jehovah, who sitteth between the cherubim, whose name is placed [there].

$$ CH1 13:7
And they carried the ark of God on a new cart out of the house of Abinadab; and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.

$$ CH1 13:8
And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and with harps, and with lutes, and with tambours, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.

$$ CH1 13:9
And when they came to the threshing-floor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen had stumbled.

$$ CH1 13:10
And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he had put forth his hand to the ark; and there he died before God.

$$ CH1 13:11
And David was indignant; for Jehovah had made a breach upon Uzza; and he called that place Perez-Uzza to this day.

$$ CH1 13:12
And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God to me?

$$ CH1 13:13
And David brought not the ark home unto himself into the city of David, but he carried it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.

$$ CH1 13:14
And the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months. And Jehovah blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he had.

$$ CH1 14:1
¶ And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him a house.

$$ CH1 14:2
And David perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel, for his kingdom was highly exalted, because of his people Israel.

$$ CH1 14:3
And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begot more sons and daughters.

$$ CH1 14:4
And these are the names of the children which he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,

$$ CH1 14:5
and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,

$$ CH1 14:6
and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

$$ CH1 14:7
and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

$$ CH1 14:8
And the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, and all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard [of it], and went out against them.

$$ CH1 14:9
And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

$$ CH1 14:10
And David inquired of God saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou give them into my hand? And Jehovah said to him, Go up; and I will give them into thy hand.

$$ CH1 14:11
And they came up to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and David said, God has broken in upon mine enemies by my hand, as the breaking forth of waters. Therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

$$ CH1 14:12
And they left their gods there; and David commanded, and they were burned with fire.

$$ CH1 14:13
And the Philistines yet again spread themselves in the valley.

$$ CH1 14:14
And David inquired again of God; and God said to him, Go not up after them; turn round them and come upon them opposite the mulberry-trees.

$$ CH1 14:15
And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle; for God will have gone forth before thee to smite the army of the Philistines.

$$ CH1 14:16
And David did as God commanded him; and they smote the army of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.

$$ CH1 14:17
And the fame of David went out into all lands; and Jehovah brought the fear of him upon all the nations.

$$ CH1 15:1
¶ And he made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and spread a tent for it.

$$ CH1 15:2
Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites, for them has Jehovah chosen to carry the ark of God, and to serve him for ever.

$$ CH1 15:3
And David assembled all Israel to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Jehovah to its place that he had prepared for it.

$$ CH1 15:4
And David gathered the sons of Aaron and the Levites:

$$ CH1 15:5
of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty;

$$ CH1 15:6
of the sons of Merari, Asaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty;

$$ CH1 15:7
of the sons of Gershom, Joel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and thirty;

$$ CH1 15:8
of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred;

$$ CH1 15:9
of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brethren eighty;

$$ CH1 15:10
of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twelve.

$$ CH1 15:11
And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab;

$$ CH1 15:12
and he said to them, Ye are the chief fathers of the Levites; hallow yourselves, ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of Jehovah the God of Israel to [the place that] I have prepared for it.

$$ CH1 15:13
For because ye did [it] not at the first, Jehovah our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order.

$$ CH1 15:14
So the priests and the Levites hallowed themselves to bring up the ark of Jehovah the God of Israel.

$$ CH1 15:15
And the children of the Levites bore the ark of God upon their shoulders with the staves upon them, as Moses had commanded according to the word of Jehovah.

$$ CH1 15:16
And David spoke to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren, the singers, with instruments of music, lutes, and harps, and cymbals, that they should sound aloud, lifting up the voice with joy.

$$ CH1 15:17
And the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brethren, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;

$$ CH1 15:18
and with them their brethren of the second [rank], Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, the doorkeepers;

$$ CH1 15:19
and the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, to sound aloud with cymbals of brass;

$$ CH1 15:20
and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with lutes on Alamoth;

$$ CH1 15:21
and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to lead [the singing].

$$ CH1 15:22
And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites for the music, gave instruction in music, for he was skilful.

$$ CH1 15:23
And Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.

$$ CH1 15:24
And Shebaniah, and Jehoshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, blew with the trumpets before the ark of God; and Obed-Edom and Jehijah were doorkeepers for the ark.

$$ CH1 15:25
And David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the house of Obed-Edom with joy.

$$ CH1 15:26
And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites that bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, that they sacrificed seven bullocks and seven rams.

$$ CH1 15:27
And David was clothed with a robe of byssus, and all the Levites that bore the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah chief of the music of the singers; and David had upon him a linen ephod.

$$ CH1 15:28
And all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah with shouting, and with sound of the trumpet, and with clarions, and with cymbals, playing aloud with lutes and harps.

$$ CH1 15:29
And it came to pass as the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked through a window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.

$$ CH1 16:1
¶ And they brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had spread for it; and they presented burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before God.

$$ CH1 16:2
And when David had ended offering up the burnt-offerings and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Jehovah.

$$ CH1 16:3
And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread and a measure [of wine] and a raisin-cake.

$$ CH1 16:4
And he appointed certain of the Levites to do the service before the ark of Jehovah, and to celebrate, and to thank and praise Jehovah the God of Israel:

$$ CH1 16:5
Asaph the chief, and second to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with instruments of lutes and with harps; and Asaph sounding with cymbals;

$$ CH1 16:6
and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually, before the ark of the covenant of God.

$$ CH1 16:7
Then on that day David delivered first [this psalm] to give thanks to Jehovah through Asaph and his brethren.

$$ CH1 16:8
Give thanks unto Jehovah, call upon his name; Make known his acts among the peoples.

$$ CH1 16:9
Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him; Meditate upon all his wondrous works.

$$ CH1 16:10
Glory in his holy name: Let the heart of them rejoice that seek Jehovah.

$$ CH1 16:11
Seek Jehovah and his strength, Seek his face continually;

$$ CH1 16:12
Remember his wondrous works which he hath done; His miracles, and the judgments of his mouth:

$$ CH1 16:13
Ye seed of Israel his servant, Ye sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.

$$ CH1 16:14
He, Jehovah, is our God; His judgments are in all the earth.

$$ CH1 16:15
Be ye ever mindful of his covenant, The word which he commanded to a thousand generations, —

$$ CH1 16:16
Which he made with Abraham, And of his oath unto Isaac;

$$ CH1 16:17
And he confirmed it unto Jacob for a statute, Unto Israel for an everlasting covenant,

$$ CH1 16:18
Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance;

$$ CH1 16:19
When ye were a few men in number, Of small account, and strangers in it.

$$ CH1 16:20
And they went from nation to nation, And from one kingdom to another people.

$$ CH1 16:21
He suffered no man to oppress them, And reproved kings for their sakes,

$$ CH1 16:22
[Saying,] Touch not mine anointed ones, And do my prophets no harm.

$$ CH1 16:23
Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth; Publish his salvation from day to day.

$$ CH1 16:24
Declare his glory among the nations, His wondrous works among all peoples.

$$ CH1 16:25
For Jehovah is great, and exceedingly to be praised; And he is terrible above all gods.

$$ CH1 16:26
For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens.

$$ CH1 16:27
Majesty and splendour are before him; Strength and gladness in his place.

$$ CH1 16:28
Give unto Jehovah, ye families of peoples, Give unto Jehovah glory and strength!

$$ CH1 16:29
Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name! Bring an oblation, and come before him: Worship Jehovah in holy splendour.

$$ CH1 16:30
Tremble before him, all the earth: The world also is established, it shall not be moved.

$$ CH1 16:31
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; And let them say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth!

$$ CH1 16:32
Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; Let the field exult, and all that is therein.

$$ CH1 16:33
Then shall the trees of the forest sing out at the presence of Jehovah, For he cometh to judge the earth.

$$ CH1 16:34
Give thanks unto Jehovah, for he is good; For his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

$$ CH1 16:35
And say, Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us, and deliver us from the nations, To give thanks unto thy holy name, To triumph in thy praise.

$$ CH1 16:36
Blessed be Jehovah the God of Israel, from eternity and to eternity! And all the people said, Amen! and praised Jehovah.

$$ CH1 16:37
And he left there, before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, Asaph and his brethren, to do the service before the ark continually, as every day's duty required;

$$ CH1 16:38
and Obed-Edom, and their brethren, sixty-eight; Obed-Edom also, the son of Jeduthun, and Hosah as doorkeepers.

$$ CH1 16:39
And Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of Jehovah in the high place that was at Gibeon,

$$ CH1 16:40
to offer up burnt-offerings to Jehovah on the altar of burnt-offering continually, morning and evening, and according to all that is written in the law of Jehovah, which he commanded Israel;

$$ CH1 16:41
and with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to Jehovah, because his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

$$ CH1 16:42
and with them, [with] Heman and Jeduthun, trumpets and cymbals for those that should sound aloud; and the musical instruments of God. And the sons of Jeduthun were at the gate.

$$ CH1 16:43
And all the people departed every one to his house; and David returned to bless his household.

$$ CH1 17:1
¶ And it came to pass as David dwelt in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Behold, I dwell in a house of cedars, and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah under curtains.

$$ CH1 17:2
And Nathan said to David, Do all that is in thy heart; for God is with thee.

$$ CH1 17:3
And it came to pass that night that the word of God came to Nathan saying,

$$ CH1 17:4
Go and say to David my servant, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou shalt not build me a house to dwell in;

$$ CH1 17:5
for I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Israel to this day; but I have been from tent to tent, and from [one] tabernacle [to another].

$$ CH1 17:6
In all my going about with all Israel, did I speak a word to any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, Why build ye me not a house of cedars?

$$ CH1 17:7
And now, thus shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: I took thee from the pasture-grounds, from following the sheep, to be prince over my people Israel;

$$ CH1 17:8
and I have been with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies from before thee, and have made thee a name, like unto the name of the great men that are on the earth.

$$ CH1 17:9
And I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and be disturbed no more; neither shall the sons of wickedness waste them any more, as formerly,

$$ CH1 17:10
and since the days that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. And I will subdue all thine enemies; and I tell thee that Jehovah will build thee a house.

$$ CH1 17:11
And it shall come to pass, when thy days are fulfilled that thou must go [to be] with thy fathers, that I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom.

$$ CH1 17:12
It is he who shall build me a house, and I will establish his throne for ever.

$$ CH1 17:13
I will be his father, and he shall be my son; and I will not take away my mercy from him, as I took it from him that was before thee;

$$ CH1 17:14
and I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom for ever; and his throne shall be established for ever.

$$ CH1 17:15
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak to David.

$$ CH1 17:16
And king David went in and sat before Jehovah, and said, Who am I, Jehovah Elohim, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?

$$ CH1 17:17
And this hath been a small thing in thy sight, O God; and thou hast spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me according to the rank of a man of high degree, Jehovah Elohim.

$$ CH1 17:18
What can David [say] more to thee for the glory of thy servant? thou indeed knowest thy servant.

$$ CH1 17:19
Jehovah, for thy servant's sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this greatness, to make known all these great things.

$$ CH1 17:20
Jehovah, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

$$ CH1 17:21
And who is like thy people Israel, the one nation in the earth that God went to redeem to be a people to himself, to make thee a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving out nations from before thy people, which thou hast redeemed out of Egypt?

$$ CH1 17:22
And thy people Israel hast thou made thine own people for ever; and thou, Jehovah, art become their God.

$$ CH1 17:23
And now, Jehovah, let the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as thou hast said.

$$ CH1 17:24
Let it even be established, and let thy name be magnified for ever, saying, Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, is God to Israel; and let the house of David thy servant be established before thee.

$$ CH1 17:25
For thou, my God, hast revealed to thy servant that thou wilt build him a house; therefore hath thy servant found [in his heart] to pray before thee.

$$ CH1 17:26
And now, Jehovah, thou art that God, and hast promised this goodness unto thy servant;

$$ CH1 17:27
and now, let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee for ever; for thou, Jehovah, hast blessed [it], and it shall be blessed for ever.

$$ CH1 18:1
¶ And after this it came to pass that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and its towns out of the hand of the Philistines.

$$ CH1 18:2
And he smote the Moabites; and the Moabites became David's servants, [and] brought gifts.

$$ CH1 18:3
And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah, at Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Euphrates.

$$ CH1 18:4
And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen; and David houghed all the chariot [horses], but reserved of them [for] a hundred chariots.

$$ CH1 18:5
And the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, and David smote of the Syrians twenty-two thousand men.

$$ CH1 18:6
And David put [garrisons] in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became servants to David, [and] brought gifts. And Jehovah preserved David whithersoever he went.

$$ CH1 18:7
And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

$$ CH1 18:8
And from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, David took very much brass, of which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

$$ CH1 18:9
And Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the forces of Hadarezer king of Zobah;

$$ CH1 18:10
and he sent Hadoram his son to king David to inquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer and smitten him; for Hadarezer was continually at war with Tou; [he sent] also all manner of vessels of gold and silver and bronze.

$$ CH1 18:11
Them also king David dedicated to Jehovah, with the silver and the gold that he had brought from all the nations: from the Edomites, and from the Moabites, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from the Amalekites.

$$ CH1 18:12
And Abishai the son of Zeruiah smote of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand.

$$ CH1 18:13
And he put garrisons in Edom; and all they of Edom became servants to David. And Jehovah preserved David whithersoever he went.

$$ CH1 18:14
And David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice to all his people.

$$ CH1 18:15
And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was chronicler;

$$ CH1 18:16
and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Shavsha was scribe;

$$ CH1 18:17
and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were the first at the king's hand.

$$ CH1 19:1
¶ And it came to pass after this that Nahash king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.

$$ CH1 19:2
And David said, I will shew kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.

$$ CH1 19:3
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Is it, in thine eyes, to honour thy father that David has sent comforters to thee? Is it not to search and overthrow, and to spy out the land that his servants are come to thee?

$$ CH1 19:4
And Hanun took David's servants, and had them shaved, and their raiment cut off in the midst, as far as the hip, and sent them away.

$$ CH1 19:5
And [certain] went and told David concerning the men; and he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Abide at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.

$$ CH1 19:6
And the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David; and Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and from the Syrians of Maacah, and from Zobah.

$$ CH1 19:7
And they hired thirty-two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah and his people; and they came and encamped before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered together from their cities, and came to battle.

$$ CH1 19:8
And David heard [of it], and he sent Joab, and all the host, the mighty men.

$$ CH1 19:9
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the city; and the kings that had come were by themselves on the field.

$$ CH1 19:10
And Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind; and he chose out of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians;

$$ CH1 19:11
and the rest of the people he gave into the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.

$$ CH1 19:12
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me; and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.

$$ CH1 19:13
Be strong, and let us shew ourselves valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God; and Jehovah will do what is good in his sight.

$$ CH1 19:14
And Joab and the people that were with him drew near in front of the Syrians to the battle; and they fled before him.

$$ CH1 19:15
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. And Joab came to Jerusalem.

$$ CH1 19:16
And when the Syrians saw that they were routed before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river; and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer [went] before them.

$$ CH1 19:17
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over the Jordan, and came upon them, and set [the battle] in array against them. And David put the battle in array against the Syrians, and they fought with him.

$$ CH1 19:18
And the Syrians fled from before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand [in] chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and slew Shophach the captain of the host.

$$ CH1 19:19
And the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were routed before Israel, and they made peace with David, and became his servants. And the Syrians would no more help the children of Ammon.

$$ CH1 20:1
¶ And it came to pass at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth, that Joab led forth the power of the army, and laid waste the land of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David abode at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and overthrew it.

$$ CH1 20:2
And David took the crown of their king from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it; and it was [set] upon David's head: and he brought forth the spoil of the city in great abundance.

$$ CH1 20:3
And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with the saw, and with harrows of iron, and with saws. And so David did to all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

$$ CH1 20:4
And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines; then Sibbechai the Hushathite smote Sippai, one of the children of Rapha; and they were subdued.

$$ CH1 20:5
And there was again a battle with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair smote Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite; now the shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam.

$$ CH1 20:6
And there was again a battle, at Gath; and there was a man [there] of great stature, whose fingers [and toes] were four and twenty, six [on each hand], and six [on each foot]; and he also was born to Rapha.

$$ CH1 20:7
And he defied Israel; but Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother smote him.

$$ CH1 20:8
These were born to Rapha in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.

$$ CH1 21:1
¶ And Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.

$$ CH1 21:2
And David said to Joab and to the princes of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer-sheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.

$$ CH1 21:3
And Joab said, Jehovah add to his people, how many soever they be, a hundredfold: are they not all, my lord O king, my lord's servants? why does my lord require this thing? why should he become a trespass to Israel?

$$ CH1 21:4
But the king's word prevailed against Joab; and Joab departed, and went through all Israel, and came [again] to Jerusalem.

$$ CH1 21:5
And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people to David. And all they of Israel were eleven hundred thousand men that drew sword; and of Judah, four hundred and seventy thousand men that drew sword.

$$ CH1 21:6
But Levi and Benjamin he did not count among them; for the king's word was abominable to Joab.

$$ CH1 21:7
And God was displeased on account of this thing, and he smote Israel.

$$ CH1 21:8
And David said to God, I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing; and now, I beseech thee, put away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

$$ CH1 21:9
And Jehovah spoke to Gad, David's seer, saying,

$$ CH1 21:10
Go and speak to David saying, Thus saith Jehovah: I offer thee three [things]; choose one of them, that I may do it unto thee.

$$ CH1 21:11
And Gad came to David, and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah:

$$ CH1 21:12
Choose thee, either three years of famine, or three months to be destroyed before thine adversaries while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee, or three days the sword of Jehovah and the pestilence in the land, and the angel of Jehovah destroying through all the borders of Israel. And now consider what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.

$$ CH1 21:13
And David said to Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall, I pray thee, into the hand of Jehovah, for his mercies are very great; but let me not fall into the hand of man.

$$ CH1 21:14
And Jehovah sent a pestilence upon Israel; and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.

$$ CH1 21:15
And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it; and as he was destroying, Jehovah beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough; withdraw now thine hand. And the angel of Jehovah stood by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

$$ CH1 21:16
And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of Jehovah stand between the earth and the heavens, and his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem. And David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces.

$$ CH1 21:17
And David said to God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? It is I that have sinned and done evil; but these sheep, what have they done? Let thy hand, I pray thee, Jehovah my God, be on me and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be smitten.

$$ CH1 21:18
And the angel of Jehovah commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up and rear an altar to Jehovah in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.

$$ CH1 21:19
And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he had spoken in the name of Jehovah.

$$ CH1 21:20
And Ornan turned back and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.

$$ CH1 21:21
And David came to Ornan, and Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing-floor, and bowed himself to David with [his] face to the ground.

$$ CH1 21:22
And David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of the threshing-floor, that I may build an altar in it to Jehovah: grant it to me for the full money, that the plague may be stayed from the people.

$$ CH1 21:23
And Ornan said to David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his sight: see, I give the oxen for the burnt-offering, and the threshing-sledges for wood, and the wheat for the oblation; I give it all.

$$ CH1 21:24
And king David said to Ornan, No; but I will in any case buy [them] for the full money; for I will not take that which is thine for Jehovah, to offer up a burnt-offering without cost.

$$ CH1 21:25
And David gave to Ornan for the place in shekels of gold the weight of six hundred [shekels].

$$ CH1 21:26
And David built there an altar to Jehovah, and offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and called upon Jehovah; and he answered him from the heavens by fire upon the altar of burnt-offering.

$$ CH1 21:27
And Jehovah spoke to the angel; and he put up his sword again into its sheath.

$$ CH1 21:28
At that time when David saw that Jehovah had answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.

$$ CH1 21:29
And the tabernacle of Jehovah, which Moses had made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt-offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.

$$ CH1 21:30
But David could not go before it to inquire of God; for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of Jehovah.

$$ CH1 22:1
¶ And David said, This is the house of Jehovah Elohim, and this is the altar of burnt-offering for Israel.

$$ CH1 22:2
And David commanded to collect the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.

$$ CH1 22:3
And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joists, and brass in abundance without weight;

$$ CH1 22:4
and cedar-trees innumerable; for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought cedar-wood in abundance to David.

$$ CH1 22:5
For David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built for Jehovah must be exceeding great in fame and in beauty in all lands: I will therefore make preparation for it. And David prepared abundantly before his death.

$$ CH1 22:6
And he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build a house for Jehovah the God of Israel.

$$ CH1 22:7
And David said to Solomon, As for me, my son, I was minded to build a house unto the name of Jehovah my God.

$$ CH1 22:8
But the word of Jehovah came to me saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build a house unto my name, for thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.

$$ CH1 22:9
Behold, a son shall be born to thee, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about; for his name shall be Solomon, and in his days I will give peace and quietness unto Israel.

$$ CH1 22:10
He shall build a house unto my name; and he shall be my son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

$$ CH1 22:11
Now, my son, Jehovah be with thee, that thou mayest prosper, and build the house of Jehovah thy God, as he has said of thee.

$$ CH1 22:12
Only, Jehovah give thee wisdom and understanding, and place thee over Israel, and to keep the law of Jehovah thy God.

$$ CH1 22:13
Then shalt thou prosper, if thou takest heed to perform the statutes and ordinances which Jehovah commanded Moses for Israel: be strong and courageous; fear not, neither be dismayed.

$$ CH1 22:14
And behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the house of Jehovah a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight, for it is in abundance; and timber and stone have I prepared; and thou shalt add to it.

$$ CH1 22:15
And there are workmen with thee in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of skilful men for every kind of work.

$$ CH1 22:16
Of the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron, there is no number. Arise and be doing and Jehovah be with thee.

$$ CH1 22:17
And David commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, [saying,]

$$ CH1 22:18
Is not Jehovah your God with you? and has he [not] given you rest on every side? for he has given the inhabitants of the land into my hand; and the land is subdued before Jehovah, and before his people.

$$ CH1 22:19
Now set your heart and your soul to seek Jehovah your God; and arise and build the sanctuary of Jehovah Elohim, to bring the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and the vessels of the sanctuary of God into the house that is to be built unto the name of Jehovah.

$$ CH1 23:1
¶ And David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel.

$$ CH1 23:2
And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.

$$ CH1 23:3
And the Levites were numbered from thirty years old and upward; and their number, by their polls, man by man, was thirty-eight thousand.

$$ CH1 23:4
Of these, twenty-four thousand were to preside over the work of the house of Jehovah; and six thousand were officers and judges;

$$ CH1 23:5
and four thousand were doorkeepers; and four thousand praised Jehovah with the instruments which I made, [said David,] to praise [therewith].

$$ CH1 23:6
And David divided them into courses according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

$$ CH1 23:7
Of the Gershonites: Laadan and Shimei.

$$ CH1 23:8
The sons of Laadan: the head was Jehiel, and Zetham, and Joel, three.

$$ CH1 23:9
The sons of Shimei: Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the chief fathers of Laadan.

$$ CH1 23:10
And the sons of Shimei: Jahath, Ziza, and Jeush, and Beriah. These were the four sons of Shimei.

$$ CH1 23:11
And Jahath was the head, and Ziza the second; and Jeush and Beriah had not many sons: as father's house, therefore, they were reckoned as one.

$$ CH1 23:12
The sons of Kohath: Amram, Jizhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.

$$ CH1 23:13
The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses. And Aaron was separated, that he should be hallowed as most holy, he and his sons for ever, to offer before Jehovah, to do service to him, and to bless in his name for ever.

$$ CH1 23:14
— And as to Moses the man of God, his sons were named of the tribe of Levi.

$$ CH1 23:15
The sons of Moses: Gershom and Eliezer.

$$ CH1 23:16
The sons of Gershom: Shebuel the head.

$$ CH1 23:17
And the sons of Eliezer: Rehabiah the head; and Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.

$$ CH1 23:18
— The sons of Jizhar: Shelomith the head.

$$ CH1 23:19
The sons of Hebron: Jeriah the head, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.

$$ CH1 23:20
The sons of Uzziel: Micah the head, and Jishijah the second.

$$ CH1 23:21
The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.

$$ CH1 23:22
And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters; and their brethren the sons of Kish took them.

$$ CH1 23:23
The sons of Mushi: Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.

$$ CH1 23:24
These were the sons of Levi according to their fathers' houses, the chief fathers, as they were reckoned, by number of names by their polls, who did the work of the service of the house of Jehovah, from twenty years old and upward.

$$ CH1 23:25
For David said, Jehovah the God of Israel has given rest to his people, and he will dwell in Jerusalem for ever;

$$ CH1 23:26
and the Levites also have no more to carry the tabernacle, nor any of its vessels for its service.

$$ CH1 23:27
For by the last words of David was this [done], — the numbering of the sons of Levi from twenty years old and upward.

$$ CH1 23:28
For their place was by the side of the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of Jehovah, over the courts, and over the chambers, and over the purifying of all holy things, and [for] the work of the service of the house of God;

$$ CH1 23:29
and for the loaves to be set in rows, and for the fine flour for the oblation, and for the unleavened cakes, and for [what is baked in] the pan, and for that which is saturated [with oil], and for all measure of capacity and size;

$$ CH1 23:30
and to stand every morning to thank and praise Jehovah, and likewise at even;

$$ CH1 23:31
and for all burnt-offerings offered up to Jehovah on the sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number, according to the ordinance concerning them, continually, before Jehovah;

$$ CH1 23:32
and they kept the charge of the tent of meeting, and the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of Jehovah.

$$ CH1 24:1
¶ And the divisions of the sons of Aaron: the sons of Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

$$ CH1 24:2
And Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children; and Eleazar and Ithamar exercised the priesthood.

$$ CH1 24:3
And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their office in their service.

$$ CH1 24:4
And there were more head-men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar, and [thus] were they divided: of the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen heads of fathers' houses, and eight of the sons of Ithamar according to their fathers' houses.

$$ CH1 24:5
And they were divided by lot, one with another; for the princes of the sanctuary and the princes of God were of the sons of Eleazar and of the sons of Ithamar.

$$ CH1 24:6
And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, [one] of the Levites, inscribed them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the chief fathers of the priests and Levites: one father's house was drawn for Eleazar, and one drawn for Ithamar.

$$ CH1 24:7
And the first lot came forth for Jehoiarib, the second for Jedaiah,

$$ CH1 24:8
the third for Harim, the fourth for Seorim,

$$ CH1 24:9
the fifth for Malchijah, the sixth for Mijamin,

$$ CH1 24:10
the seventh for Hakkoz, the eighth for Abijah,

$$ CH1 24:11
the ninth for Jeshuah, the tenth for Shecaniah,

$$ CH1 24:12
the eleventh for Eliashib, the twelfth for Jakim,

$$ CH1 24:13
the thirteenth for Huppah, the fourteenth for Jeshebeab,

$$ CH1 24:14
the fifteenth for Bilgah, the sixteenth for Immer,

$$ CH1 24:15
the seventeenth for Hezir, the eighteenth for Happizez,

$$ CH1 24:16
the nineteenth for Pethahiah, the twentieth for Ezekiel,

$$ CH1 24:17
the twenty-first for Jachin, the twenty-second for Gamul,

$$ CH1 24:18
the twenty-third for Delaiah, the twenty-fourth for Maaziah.

$$ CH1 24:19
This is their ordering in their service to come into the house of Jehovah, according to their ordinance, through Aaron their father, as Jehovah the God of Israel had commanded him.

$$ CH1 24:20
And as for the rest of the sons of Levi: of the sons of Amram, Shubael; of the sons of Shubael, Jehdeiah.

$$ CH1 24:21
Of Rehabiah, of the sons of Rehabiah, the head was Jishijah.

$$ CH1 24:22
Of the Jizharites, Shelomoth; of the sons of Shelomoth, Jahath.

$$ CH1 24:23
— And the sons [of Hebron]: Jerijah [the head], Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, Jekameam the fourth.

$$ CH1 24:24
The sons of Uzziel, Micah; of the sons of Micah, Shamir;

$$ CH1 24:25
the brother of Micah was Jishijah; of the sons of Jishijah, Zechariah.

$$ CH1 24:26
The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi; the sons of Jaaziah, his son.

$$ CH1 24:27
The sons of Merari by Jaaziah his son: Shoham, and Zaccur, and Ibri.

$$ CH1 24:28
Of Mahli: Eleazar, who had no sons.

$$ CH1 24:29

And David took not their number from twenty years old and under; for Jehovah had said he would increase Israel as the stars of heaven.

$$ CH1 27:24
Joab the son of Zeruiah began to number, but he did not finish; and there fell wrath for it upon Israel; and the number was not put in the account of the chronicles of king David.

$$ CH1 28:2
And king David stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren and my people! I had in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of Jehovah and for the footstool of our God, and I have prepared to build.

$$ CH1 28:3
But God said to me, Thou shalt not build a house unto my name, for thou art a man of war, and hast shed blood.

$$ CH1 28:4
And Jehovah the God of Israel chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever; for he has chosen Judah to be the prince; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel;

$$ CH1 28:5
and of all my sons, (for Jehovah has given me many sons,) he has chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of Jehovah over Israel.

$$ CH1 28:6
And he said to me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts; for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

$$ CH1 28:7
And I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he be firm to do my commandments and mine ordinances, as at this day.

$$ CH1 28:8
And now in the sight of all Israel, the congregation of Jehovah, and in the audience of our God, — keep and seek for all the commandments of Jehovah your God; that ye may possess the good land, and leave it as an inheritance to your children after you for ever.

$$ CH1 28:9
And thou, Solomon my son, know the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for Jehovah searches all hearts, and discerns all the imaginations of the thoughts. If thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cut thee off for ever.

$$ CH1 28:10
Consider now, that Jehovah has chosen thee to build a house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do [it].

$$ CH1 28:11
And David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of its houses, and of its treasuries, and of its upper chambers, and of its inner chambers, and of the house of the mercy-seat;

$$ CH1 28:12
and the pattern of all that he had by the Spirit, of the courts of the house of Jehovah, and of all the chambers round about, for the treasuries of the house of God, and for the treasuries of the dedicated things;

$$ CH1 28:13
and for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of Jehovah, and for all the instruments of service in the house of Jehovah:

$$ CH1 28:14
gold by weight for [things] of gold, for all utensils of each kind of service; for all utensils of silver, by weight, for all utensils of each kind of service;

$$ CH1 28:15
and the weight of the golden candlesticks, and of their golden lamps, by weight for every candlestick, and for its lamps; and for the silver candlesticks, by weight, for the candlestick and for its lamps, according to the use of every candlestick;

$$ CH1 28:16
and gold by weight for the tables of the [loaves] to be set in rows, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver;

$$ CH1 28:17
and pure gold for the forks, and the bowls, and the goblets; and for the golden basons by weight for every bason; and for the silver basons by weight for every bason;

$$ CH1 28:18
and for the altar of incense, refined gold by weight; and the pattern of the chariot of the cherubim of gold, which spread out [their wings] and cover the ark of the covenant of Jehovah.

$$ CH1 28:19
All this [said David,] in writing, by Jehovah's hand upon me, instructing as to all the works of the pattern.

$$ CH1 28:20
And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and courageous, and do it; fear not nor be dismayed: for Jehovah Elohim, my God, will be with thee; he will not leave thee, neither forsake thee, until all the work for the service of the house of Jehovah is finished.

$$ CH1 28:21
And behold, the courses of the priests and the Levites are for all the service of the house of God; and thou hast with thee for all manner of workmanship every willing man, skilful for every sort of service; and the princes and all the people are wholly at thy commandment.

$$ CH1 29:1
¶ And king David said to all the congregation, Solomon my son, the one whom God has chosen, is young and tender, and the work is great; for this palace is not to be for man, but for Jehovah Elohim.

$$ CH1 29:2
And I have prepared according to all my power for the house of my God gold for [things of] gold, and silver for [things of] silver, and brass for [things of] brass, iron for [things of] iron, and wood for [things of] wood; onyx stones, and [stones] to be set, glistering stones, and of divers colours, and all manner of precious stones, and white marble in abundance.

$$ CH1 29:3
And moreover, in my affection for the house of my God I have given of my own property of gold and silver, for the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the house of the sanctuary:

$$ CH1 29:4
three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses;

$$ CH1 29:5
gold for [things of] gold, and silver for [things of] silver, and for all manner of work by the hands of artificers. And who is willing to offer to Jehovah this day?

$$ CH1 29:6
And the chief fathers and princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and the comptrollers of the king's business, offered willingly.

$$ CH1 29:7
And they gave for the service of the house of God five thousand talents and ten thousand darics of gold, and ten thousand talents of silver, and eighteen thousand talents of brass, and one hundred thousand talents of iron.

$$ CH1 29:8
And they with whom stones were found gave [them] to the treasure of the house of Jehovah, into the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

$$ CH1 29:9
And the people rejoiced because they offered willingly, for with perfect heart they offered willingly to Jehovah; and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.

$$ CH1 29:10
And David blessed Jehovah in the sight of all the congregation; and David said, Blessed be thou, Jehovah, the God of our father Israel, for ever and ever.

$$ CH1 29:11
Thine, Jehovah, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the splendour, and the majesty; for all that is in the heavens and on the earth is thine: thine, Jehovah, is the kingdom, and thou art exalted as Head above all;

$$ CH1 29:12
and riches and glory are of thee, and thou rulest over everything; and in thy hand is power and might; and in thy hand it is to make all great and strong.

$$ CH1 29:13
And now, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.

$$ CH1 29:14
But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer willingly after this manner? for all is of thee, and of that which is from thy hand have we given thee.

$$ CH1 29:15
For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no hope [of life].

$$ CH1 29:16
Jehovah our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee a house to thy holy name, is of thy hand, and is all thine own.

$$ CH1 29:17
And I know, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. In the uprightness of my heart have I willingly offered all these things; and now have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, offer willingly to thee.

$$ CH1 29:18
Jehovah, God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and direct their hearts to thee!

$$ CH1 29:19
And give to Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes, and to do all, and to build the palace, for which I have made provision.

$$ CH1 29:20
And David said to all the congregation, Bless now Jehovah your God. And all the congregation blessed Jehovah the God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and did homage to Jehovah and the king.

$$ CH1 29:21
And they sacrificed sacrifices to Jehovah, and offered up burnt-offerings to Jehovah, on the morrow after that day: a thousand bullocks, a thousand rams, a thousand lambs, with their drink-offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel.

$$ CH1 29:22
And they ate and drank before Jehovah on that day with great joy. And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and anointed him to Jehovah to be prince, and Zadok to be priest.

$$ CH1 29:23
And Solomon sat on the throne of Jehovah as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.

$$ CH1 29:24
And all the princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons likewise of king David, submitted themselves to Solomon the king.

$$ CH1 29:25
And Jehovah magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed upon him royal majesty such as had not been on any king before him in Israel.

$$ CH1 29:26
Now David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.

$$ CH1 29:27
And the time that he reigned over Israel was forty years: he reigned seven years in Hebron, and he reigned thirty-three years in Jerusalem.

$$ CH1 29:28
And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour; and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.

$$ CH1 29:29
And the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer;

$$ CH1 29:30
with all his reign and his might, and the times that passed over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries.
