\verseNumber{13}Therefore Dauid brought not the Arke to him into the citie of Dauid, but caused it to turne into the house of Obed Edom the Gittite.

\verseNumber{10}Then Dauid asked counsel at God, saying, Shall I goe vp against the Philistims, and wilt thou deliuer them into mine hande? And the Lord saide vnto him, Goe vp: for I will deliuer them into thine hande. 
\verseNumber{11}So they came vp to Baal-perazim, and Dauid smote them there: and Dauid said, God hath deuided mine enemies with mine hande, as waters are deuided: therefore they called the name of that place, Baal-perazim. 
\verseNumber{12}And there they had left their gods: and Dauid said, Let them euen be burnt with fire.

\verseNumber{13}For because ye were not there at the first, the Lord our God made a breach among vs: for we sought him not after due order.

\verseNumber{5}For I haue dwelt in no house, since the day that I brought out the childre of Israel vnto this daye, but I haue bene from tent to tent, and from habitation to habitation. 
\verseNumber{6}Wheresoeuer I haue walked with all Israel spake I one word to any of the iudges of Israel (whome I commanded to feede my people) saying, Why haue ye not built mee an house of cedar trees? 
\verseNumber{7}Nowe therefore thus shalt thou say vnto my seruant Dauid, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I tooke thee from the sheepecoat and from following the sheepe, that thou shouldest bee a prince ouer my people Israel. 
\verseNumber{8}And I haue bene with thee whithersoeuer thou hast walked, and haue destroyed all thine enemies out of thy sight, and haue made thee a name, like the name of the great men that are in the earth. 
\verseNumber{9}(Also I will appoynt a place for my people Israel, and will plant it, that they may dwell in their place, and moue no more: neither shall the wicked people vexe them any more, as at the beginning, 
\verseNumber{10}And since the time that I commanded iudges ouer my people Israel) And I wil subdue all thine enemies: therefore I say vnto thee, that the Lord wil buylde thee an house. 
\verseNumber{11}And when thy dayes shalbe fulfilled to go with thy fathers, then will I rayse vp thy seede after thee, which shalbe of thy sonnes, and will stablish his kingdome. 
\verseNumber{12}He shall builde me an house, and I will stablish his throne for euer. 
\verseNumber{13}I wil be his father, and he shalbe my sonne, aud I will not take my mercie away from him, as I tooke it from him that was before thee. 
\verseNumber{14}But I wil establish him in mine house, and in my kingdome for euer, and his throne shalbe stablished for euer, 
\verseNumber{15}According to all these wordes, and according to al this vision. So Nathan spake to Dauid. 
\verseNumber{16}And Dauid the King went in and sate before the Lord and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto? 
\verseNumber{17}Yet thou esteeming this a small thing, O God, hast also spoken concerning the house of thy seruaut for a great while, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of hie degree, O Lord God. 
\verseNumber{18}What can Dauid desire more of thee for the honour of thy seruant? for thou knowest thy seruant. 
\verseNumber{19}O Lord, for thy seruantes sake, euen according to thine heart hast thou done all this great thing to declare all magnificence. 
\verseNumber{20}Lord, there is none like thee, neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that we haue heard with our eares. 
\verseNumber{21}Moreouer what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whose God went to redeeme them to be his people, and to make thy selfe a Name, and to doe great and terrible things by casting out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast deliuered out of Egypt? 
\verseNumber{22}For thou hast ordeined thy people Israel to be thine owne people for euer, and thou Lord art become their God. 
\verseNumber{23}Therefore nowe Lord, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy seruant and concerning his house, be confirmed for euer, and doe as thou hast sayd, 
\verseNumber{24}And let thy name be stable and magnified for euer, that it may be sayd, The Lord of hostes, God of Israel, is the God of Israel, and let the house of Dauid thy seruant bee stablished before thee. 
\verseNumber{25}For thou, O my God, hast reueiled vnto the eare of thy seruant, that thou wilt builde him an house: therefore thy seruant hath bene bolde to pray before thee. 
\verseNumber{26}Therefore nowe Lord (for thou art God, and hast spoken this goodnesse vnto thy seruant) 
\verseNumber{27}Now therfore, it hath pleased thee to blesse the house of thy seruant, that it may bee before thee for euer: for thou, O Lord, hast blessed it, and it shalbe blessed for euer.

\chapterNumber{18}And after this Dauid smote the Philistims, and subdued them, and tooke Gath, and the villages thereof out of the hand of the Philistims. 
\verseNumber{2}And he smote Moab, and the Moabites became Dauids seruants, and brought giftes. 
\verseNumber{3}And Dauid smote Hadarezer King of Zobah vnto Hamath, as he went to stablish his border by the riuer Perath. 
\verseNumber{4}And Dauid tooke from him a thousand charets, and seuen thousand horsemen, and twentie thousand footemen, and destroyed all the charets, but he reserued of them an hundreth charets. 
\verseNumber{5}Then came the Aramites of Damascus to succour Hadarezer King of Zobah, but Dauid slewe of the Aramites two and twentie thousand. 
\verseNumber{6}And Dauid put a garison in Aram of Damascus, and the Aramites became Dauids seruants, and brought giftes: and the Lord preserued Dauid wheresoeuer he went. 
\verseNumber{7}And Dauid tooke the shieldes of gold that were of the seruants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Ierusalem. 
\verseNumber{8}And from Tibhath, and from Chun (cities of Hadarezer) brought Dauid exceeding much brasse, wherewith Salomon made the brasen Sea, and the pillars and the vessels of brasse. 
\verseNumber{9}Then Tou King of Hamath heard howe Dauid had smitten all the hoste of Hadarezer King of Zobah: 
\verseNumber{10}Therefore he sent Hadoram his sonne to King Dauid, to salute him, and to reioyce with him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and beaten him (for Tou had warre with Hadarezer) who brought all vessels of golde and siluer and brasse. 
\verseNumber{11}And King Dauid did dedicate them vnto the Lord, with the siluer and golde that hee brought from all the nations, from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistims, and from Amalek. 
\verseNumber{12}And Abishai the sonne of Zeruiah smote of Edom in the salt valley eighteene thousand, 
\verseNumber{13}And he put a garison in Edom, and all the Edomites became Dauids seruantes: and the Lord preserued Dauid wheresoeuer he went. 
\verseNumber{14}So Dauid reigned ouer all Israel, and executed iudgement and iustice to all his people. 
\verseNumber{15}And Ioab the sonne of Zeruiah was ouer the hoste, and Iehoshaphat the sonne of Ahilud recorder, 
\verseNumber{16}And Zadok the sonne of Ahitub, and Abimelech the sonne of Abiathar were the Priests, and Shausha the Scribe,

\chapterNumber{19}After this also Nahash the King of the children of Ammon dyed, and his sonne reigned in his stead. 
\verseNumber{2}And Dauid said, I will shew kindnesse vnto Hanun the sonne of Nahash, because his father shewed kindnesse vnto me. And Dauid sent messengers to comfort him for his father. So the seruants of Dauid came into the lande of the children of Ammon to Hanun to comfort him. 
\verseNumber{3}And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that Dauid doeth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters vnto thee? Are not his seruants come to thee to search, to seeke and to spie out the land? 
\verseNumber{4}Wherefore Hanun tooke Dauids seruants, and shaued them, and cut off their garments by the halfe vnto the buttocks, and sent them away. 
\verseNumber{5}And there went certaine and tolde Dauid concerning the men: and he sent to meete them (for the men were exceedingly ashamed) and the King saide, Tarie at Iericho, vntill your beardes be growen: then returne. 
\verseNumber{6}When the children of Ammon saw that they stanke in the sight of Dauid, then sent Hanun and the children of Ammon a thousande talents of siluer to hire them charets and horsemen out of Aram Naharaim and out of Aram Maachah, and out of Zobah. 
\verseNumber{7}And they hired them two and thirty thousande charets, and the King of Maachah and his people, which came and pitched before Medeba: and the children of Ammon gathered themselues together from their cities, and came to the battell. 
\verseNumber{8}And when Dauid heard, he sent Ioab and all the hoste of the valiant men. 
\verseNumber{9}And the children of Ammon came out, and set their battell in aray at the gate of the citie. And the Kings that were come, were by them selues in the fielde. 
\verseNumber{10}When Ioab saw that the front of the battel was against him before and behinde, then he chose out of all the choyse of Israel, and set him selfe in aray to meete the Aramites. 
\verseNumber{11}And the rest of the people he deliuered vnto the hande of Abishai his brother, and they put them selues in aray against the children of Ammon. 
\verseNumber{12}And he saide, If Aram be too strong for me, then thou shalt succour me: and if the children of Ammon preuaile against thee, then I wil succour thee. 
\verseNumber{13}Be strong, and let vs shewe our selues valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God, and let the Lord doe that which is good in his owne sight. 
\verseNumber{14}So Ioab and the people that was with him, came neere before the Aramites vnto the battel, and they fled before him. 
\verseNumber{15}And when the children of Ammon sawe that the Aramites fled, they fled also before Abishai his brother, and entred into the citie: so Ioab came to Ierusalem. 
\verseNumber{16}And when the Aramites sawe that they were discomfited before Israel, they sent messengers and caused the Aramites to come forth that were beyond the riuer: and Shophach the captaine of the hoste of Hadarezer went before them. 
\verseNumber{17}And when it was shewed Dauid, he gathered all Israel, and went ouer Iorden, and came vnto them, and put him selfe in aray against them: And when Dauid had put him selfe in battel aray to meete the Aramites, they fought with him. 
\verseNumber{18}But the Aramites fled before Israel, and Dauid destroyed of the Aramites seuen thousand charets, and fourtie thousand footemen, and killed Shophach the captaine of the hoste. 
\verseNumber{19}And when the seruants of Hadarezer sawe that they fell before Israel, they made peace with Dauid, and serued him. And the Aramites would no more succour the children of Ammon. 
\BibleParagraphStyleP
\chapterNumber{20}And when the yere was expired, in the time that Kings goe out a warfare, Ioab caryed out the strength of the armie, and destroyed the countrey of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah (but Dauid taryed at Ierusalem) and Ioab smote Rabbah and destroyed it. 
\verseNumber{2}Then Dauid tooke the crowne of their King from off his head, and founde it the weight of a talent of golde, with precious stones in it: and it was set on Dauids head, and he brought away the spoyle of the citie exceeding much. 
\verseNumber{3}And he caryed away the people that were in it, and cut them with sawes, and with harowes of yron, and with axes: euen thus did Dauid with all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then Dauid and all the people came againe to Ierusalem. 
\verseNumber{4}And after this also there arose warre at Gezer with the Philistims: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slewe Sippai, of the children of Haraphah, and they were subdued. 
\verseNumber{5}And there was yet another battell with the Philistims: and Elhanan the sonne of Iair slewe Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spearestaffe was like a weauers beame. 
\verseNumber{6}And yet againe there was a battel at Gath, where was a man of a great stature, and his fingers were by sixes, euen foure and twentie, and was also the sonne of Haraphah. 
\verseNumber{7}And when he reuiled Israel, Iehonathan the sonne of Shimea Dauids brother did slay him.

\chapterNumber{21}And Satan stoode vp against Israel, and prouoked Dauid to nomber Israel. 
\verseNumber{2}Therefore Dauid said to Ioab, and to the rulers of the people, Go, and nomber Israel from Beer-sheba euen to Dan, and bring it to me, that I may knowe the nomber of them. 
\verseNumber{3}And Ioab answered, The Lord increase his people an hundreth times so many as they be, O my lord the King: are they not all my lords seruats? wherefore doeth my lord require this thing? why should he be a cause of trespasse to Israel? 
\verseNumber{4}Neuerthelesse the Kings word preuailed against Ioab. And Ioab departed and went thorowe all Israel, and returned to Ierusalem. 
\verseNumber{5}And Ioab gaue the nomber and summe of the people vnto Dauid: and all Israel were eleuen hundreth thousande men that drewe sword: and Iudah was foure hundreth and seuentie thousande men that drewe sword. 
\verseNumber{6}But the Leuites and Beniamin counted he not among them: for the Kings worde was abominable to Ioab. 
\verseNumber{7}And God was displeased with this thing: therefore he smote Israel. 
\verseNumber{8}Then Dauid saide vnto God, I haue sinned greatly, because I haue done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, remooue the iniquitie of thy seruant: for I haue done very foolishly. 
\verseNumber{9}And the Lord spake vnto Gad Dauids Seer, saying, 
\verseNumber{10}Goe and tell Dauid, saying, Thus saith the Lord, I offer thee three thinges: choose thee one of them, that I may doe it vnto thee. 
\verseNumber{11}So Gad came to Dauid, and sayde vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Take to thee 
\verseNumber{12}Either three yeeres famine, or three moneths to be destroyed before thine aduersaries, and the sworde of thine enemies to take thee, or els the sworde of the Lord and pestilence in the lande three dayes, that the Angel of the Lord may destroy throughout all the coastes of Israel: nowe therefore aduise thee, what word I shall bring againe to him that sent me. 
\verseNumber{13}And Dauid said vnto Gad, I am in a wonderfull strait. let me nowe fall into the hande of the Lord: for his mercies are exceeding great, and let me not fall into the hande of man. 
\verseNumber{14}So the Lord sent a pestilence in Israel, and there fell of Israel seuentie thousande men. 
\verseNumber{15}And God sent the Angel into Ierusalem to destroy it. And as he was destroying, the Lord behelde, and repented of the euill and sayde to the Angel that destroyed, It is nowe ynough, let thine hande cease. Then the Angel of the Lord stoode by the thresshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite. 
\verseNumber{16}And Dauid lift vp his eyes, and sawe the Angel of the Lord stande betweene the earth and the heauen with his sworde drawen in his hand, and stretched out towarde Ierusalem. Then Dauid and the Elders of Israel, which were clothed in sacke, fell vpon their faces. 
\verseNumber{17}And Dauid said vnto God, Is it not I that commanded to nomber the people? It is euen I that haue sinned and haue committed euil, but these sheepe what haue they done? O Lord my God, I beseech thee, let thine hande be on me and on my fathers house, and not on thy people for their destruction. 
\verseNumber{18}Then the Angel of the Lord commanded Gad to say to Dauid, that Dauid should goe vp, and set vp an altar vnto the Lord in the thresshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite. 
\verseNumber{19}So Dauid went vp according to the saying of Gad, which he had spoken in the Name of the Lord. 
\verseNumber{20}And Ornan turned about, and sawe the Angel, and his foure sonnes, that were with him, hid them selues, and Ornan thresshed wheat. 
\verseNumber{21}And as Dauid came to Ornan, Ornan looked and sawe Dauid, and went out of the thresshing floore, and bowed himselfe to Dauid with his face to the grounde. 
\verseNumber{22}And Dauid saide to Ornan, Giue me the place of thy thresshing floore, that I may builde an altar therein vnto the Lord: giue it me for sufficient money, that the plague may be stayed from the people. 
\verseNumber{23}Then Ornan saide vnto Dauid, Take it to thee, and let my lord the King do that which seemeth him good: loe, I giue thee bullockes for burnt offrings, and thresshing instruments for wood, and wheat for meate offring, I giue it all. 
\verseNumber{24}And King Dauid saide to Ornan, Not so: but I will bye it for sufficient money: for I wil not take that which is thine for the Lord, nor offer burnt offrings without cost. 
\verseNumber{25}So Dauid gaue to Ornan for that place sixe hundreth shekels of golde by weight. 
\verseNumber{26}And Dauid built there an altar vnto the Lord, and offred burnt offrings, and peace offrings, and called vpon the Lord, and he answered him by fire from heauen vpon the altar of burnt offring. 
\verseNumber{27}And when the Lord had spoken to the Angel, he put vp his sworde againe into his sheath. 
\verseNumber{28}At that time when Dauid sawe that the Lord had heard him in the thresshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite, then he sacrificed there.

\verseNumber{3}Dauid also prepared much yron for the nayles of the doores and of the gates, and for the ioynings, and abundance of brasse passing weight,

\verseNumber{5}And Dauid saide, Salomon my sonne is yong and tender, and we must builde an house for the Lord, magnificall, excellent and of great fame and dignitie throughout all countreyes. I will therefore nowe prepare for him. So Dauid prepared very much before his death. 
\verseNumber{6}Then he called Salomon his sonne, and charged him to builde an house for the Lord God of Israel. 
\verseNumber{7}And Dauid said to Salomon, My sonne, I purposed with my selfe to builde an house to the Name of the Lord my God, 
\verseNumber{8}But the worde of the Lord came to me, saying, Thou hast shed much blood, and hast made great battels: thou shalt not builde an house vnto my Name: for thou hast shead much blood vpon the earth in my sight. 
\verseNumber{9}Beholde, a sonne is borne to thee, which shalbe a man of rest, for I will giue him rest from all his enemies rounde about: therefore his name is Salomon: and I will sende peace and quietnes vpon Israel in his dayes.

\verseNumber{26}And also the Leuites shall no more beare the Tabernacle and al the vessels for the seruice thereof. 
\verseNumber{27}Therefore according to the last wordes of Dauid, the Leuites were nombred from twentie yeere and aboue,
