Chapter 2
David Anointed King Over Judah
1In the course of time, David inquired of the LORD. “Shall I go up to one of the towns of Judah?” he asked.
The LORD said, “Go up.”
David asked, “Where shall I go?”
“To Hebron,” the LORD answered.
2So David went up there with his two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail, the widow of Nabal of Carmel.3David also took the men who were with him, each with his family, and they settled in Hebron and its towns.4Then the men of Judah came to Hebron and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah.
When David was told that it was the men of Jabesh Gilead who had buried Saul,5he sent messengers to the men of Jabesh Gilead to say to them, “The LORD bless you for showing this kindness to Saul your master by burying him.6May the LORD now show you kindness and faithfulness, and I too will show you the same favor because you have done this.7Now then, be strong and brave, for Saul your master is dead, and the house of Judah has anointed me king over them.”
