2 Samuel 2:4-6

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁴ And the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, The men of Jabeshgilead buried Saul.

⁵ And David sent messengers unto the men of Jabeshgilead and said unto them, Blessed shall ye be of the LORD that ye have showed this mercy unto your lord, even unto Saul and have buried him.

⁶ And now the LORD show mercy and truth unto you; and I also will requite you this kindness because ye have done this thing.
