1 Chronicles 11:2-4

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

² In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel; and the Lord your God said to you, You shall be shepherd of My people Israel, and you shall be prince and leader over [them].

³ So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a covenant with them there before the Lord, and they anointed [him] king over Israel, according to the word of the Lord through Samuel.^(A)

⁴ And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, that is Jebus, where the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were.
