David becomes king^[a]

11 Then all the Israelites came to David at Hebron. They said to him, ‘We all belong to the same family as you do. ² In the past, even when Saul was our king, you led the Israelites in war. The Lord your God said to you, “You will take care of my people, as a shepherd takes care of his sheep. You will rule over my people, Israel.” ’
