1Ch 11:15 And three of the thirty chiefs went down to the rock to David, to the cave of Odollam, and the camp of the Philistines [was] in the giants’ valley.
1Ch 11:16 And David [was] then in the hold, and the garrison of the Philistines [was] then in Bethleem.

1Ch 11:19 God forbid that I should do this thing: shall I drink the blood of these men with their lives? for with [the peril of] their lives they brought it. So he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty [men].
1Ch 11:20 And Abisa the brother of Joab, he was chief of three: he drew his sword against three hundred slain at one time, and he had a name among the [second] three.
1Ch 11:21 He was more famous than the two [others] of the three, and he was chief [over] them; yet he reached not to the [first] three.
1Ch 11:22 And Banaia the son of Jodae was the son of a mighty man: many [were] his acts for Cabasael: he smote two lion-like men of Moab, and he went down and smote a lion in a pit on a snowy day.
1Ch 11:23 And he smote an Egyptian, a wonderful man five cubits [high]; and in the hand of the Egyptian [there was] a spear like a weavers’ beam; and Banaia went down to him with a staff, and took the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear.
1Ch 11:24 These things did Banaia son of Jodae, and his name [was] among the three mighties.

1Ch 12:17 And David went out to meet them, and said to them, If ye are come peaceably to me, let my heart be at peace with you: but if [ye are come] to betray me to my enemies unfaithfully, the God of your fathers look upon it, and reprove it.
1Ch 12:18 And the Spirit came upon Amasai, a captain of the thirty, and he said, Go, David, son of Jesse, thou and thy people, peace, peace be to thee, and peace to thy helpers, for thy God has helped thee. And David received them, and made them captains of the forces.
1Ch 12:19 And [some] came to David from Manasse, when the Philistines came against Saul to war: and he helped them not, because the captains of the Philistines took counsel, saying, With the heads of those men will he return to his master Saul.

1Ch 12:39 And they were there three days eating and drinking, for their brethren [had] made preparations.
1Ch 12:40 And their neighbours, as far as Issachar and Zabulon and Nephthali, brought to them upon camels, and asses, and mules, and upon calves, victuals, meal, cakes of figs, raisins, wine, and oil, calves and sheep abundantly: for [there was] joy in Israel.
1Ch 13:1 ¶ And David took counsel with the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, [even with] every commander.
1Ch 13:2 And David said to the whole congregation of Israel, If it [seem] good to you, and it should be prospered by the Lord our God, let us send to our brethren that are left in all the land of Israel, and let the priests the Levites who are with them in the cities of their possession [come], and let them be gathered to us.
1Ch 13:3 And let us bring over to us the ark of our God; for men have not enquired [at] it since the days of Saul.
1Ch 13:4 And all the congregation said that they would do thus; for the saying was right in the eyes of all the people.
1Ch 13:5 So David assembled all Israel, from the borders of Egypt even to the entering in of Hemath, to bring in the ark of God from the city of Jarim.
1Ch 13:6 And David brought it up: and all Israel went up to the city of David, which belonged to Juda, to bring up thence the ark of the Lord God who sits between the cherubim, whose name is called [on it].
1Ch 13:7 And they set the ark of God on a new waggon [brought] out of the house of Aminadab: and Oza and his brethren drove the waggon.
1Ch 13:8 And David and all Israel [were] playing before the Lord with all their might, and [that] together with singers, and with harps, and with lutes, with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
1Ch 13:9 ¶ And they came as far as the threshing-floor: and Oza put forth his hand to hold the ark, because the bullock moved it from [its place].
1Ch 13:10 And the Lord was very angry with Oza, and smote him there, because of his stretching forth his hand upon the ark: and he died there before God.
1Ch 13:11 And David was dispirited, because the Lord [had] made a breach on Oza: and he called that place the Breach of Oza until this day.
1Ch 13:12 And David feared God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God in to myself?
1Ch 13:13 So David brought not the ark home to himself into the city of David, but he turned it aside into the house of Abeddara the Gethite.
1Ch 13:14 And the ark of God abode in the house of Abeddara three months: and God blessed Abeddara and all that he had.

1Ch 14:8 ¶ And the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel: and all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard [it], and went out to meet them.
1Ch 14:9 And the Philistines came and assembled together in the giants’ valley.
1Ch 14:10 And David enquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said to him, Go up, and I will deliver them into thy hands.
1Ch 14:11 And he went up to Baal Pharasin, and David smote them there; and David said, God has broken through enemies by my hand like a breach of water: therefore he called the name of that place, the Breach of Pharasin.
1Ch 14:12 And the Philistines left their gods there; and David gave orders to burn them with fire.
1Ch 14:13 And the Philistines once more assembled themselves in the giants’ valley.
1Ch 14:14 And David enquired of God again; and God said to him, Thou shalt not go after them; turn away from them, and thou shalt come upon them near the pear trees.
1Ch 14:15 And it shall be, when thou shalt hear the sound of their tumult in the tops of the pear trees, then thou shalt go into the battle: for God has gone out before thee to smite the army of the Philistines.
1Ch 14:16 And he did as God commanded him: and he smote the army of the Philistines from Gabaon to Gazera.
1Ch 14:17 And the name of David was [famous] in all the land; and the Lord put the terror of him on all the nations.
1Ch 15:1 ¶ And [David] made for himself houses in the city of David, and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and made a tent for it.
1Ch 15:2 Then said David, It is not [lawful for any] to bear the ark of God, but the Levites; for the Lord has chosen them to bear the ark of the Lord, and to minister to him for ever.
1Ch 15:3 And David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the Lord to the place which he [had] prepared for it.
1Ch 15:4 And David gathered together the sons of Aaron the Levites.
1Ch 15:5 Of the sons of Caath; [there was] Uriel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and twenty.
1Ch 15:6 Of the sons of Merari; Asaia the chief, and his brethren, two hundred and twenty.

1Ch 15:11 And David called Sadoc and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites, Uriel, Asaia, and Joel, and Semaia, and Eliel, and Aminadab,
1Ch 15:12 and said to them, Ye [are] the heads of the families of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, you and your brethren, and ye shall carry up the ark of the God of Israel, [to the place] which I have prepared for it.
1Ch 15:13 For because ye were not [ready] at the first, our God made a breach upon us, because we sought him not according to the ordinance.
1Ch 15:14 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves, to bring up the ark of the God of Israel.
1Ch 15:15 And the sons of the Levites took the ark of God, (as Moses commanded by the word of God according to the scripture) upon their shoulders with staves.
1Ch 15:16 And David said to the chiefs of the Levites, Set your brethren the singers with musical instruments, lutes, harps, and cymbals, to sound aloud with a voice of joy.
1Ch 15:17 So the Levites appointed Aeman the son of Joel; Asaph the son of Barachias [was one] of his brethren; and Aethan the son of Kisaeus was of the sons of Merari their brethren;
1Ch 15:18 and with them their brethren of the second rank, Zacharias, and Oziel, and Semiramoth, and Jeiel, and Elioel, and Eliab, and Banaia, and Maasaia, and Matthathia, and Eliphena, and Makellia, and Abdedom, and Jeiel, and Ozias, the porters.
1Ch 15:19 And the singers, Aeman, Asaph, and Aethan, with brazen cymbals to make [a sound] to be heard.

1Ch 15:22 And Chonenia chief of the Levites [was] master of the bands, because he was skilful.
1Ch 15:23 And Barachia and Elcana [were] door-keepers of the ark.
1Ch 15:24 And Somnia, and Josaphat, and Nathanael, and Amasai, and Zacharia, and Banaea, and Eliezer, the priests, were sounding with trumpets before the ark of God: and Abdedom and Jeia [were] door-keepers of the ark of God.
1Ch 15:25 ¶ So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains of thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant from the house of Abdedom with gladness.
1Ch 15:26 And it came to pass when God strengthened the Levites bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord, that they sacrificed seven calves and seven rams.
1Ch 15:27 And David [was] girt with a fine linen robe, and all the Levites [who were] bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the singers, and Chonenias the master of the band of singers; also upon David [there was] a robe of fine linen.
1Ch 15:28 And all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the Lord with shouting, and with the sound of a horn, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, playing loudly on lutes and harps.
1Ch 15:29 And the ark of the covenant of the Lord arrived, and came to the city of David; and Melchol the daughter of Saul looked down through the window, and saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.
1Ch 16:1 ¶ So they brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tabernacle which David pitched for it; and they offered whole-burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before God.
1Ch 16:2 And David finished offering up whole-burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
1Ch 16:3 And he divided to every man of Israel (both men and women), to [every] man one baker’s loaf, and a cake.
1Ch 16:4 And he appointed before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, Levites to minister [and] lift up the voice, and to give thanks and praise the Lord God of Israel:
1Ch 16:5 Asaph [was] the chief, and next to him Zacharias, Jeiel, Semiramoth, and Jeiel, Mattathias, Eliab, and Banaeas, and Abdedom: and Jeiel sounding with musical instruments, lutes [and] harps, and Asaph with cymbals:
1Ch 16:6 and Banaeas and Oziel the priests [sounding] continually with trumpets before the ark of the covenant of God in that day.
1Ch 16:7 ¶ Then David first gave orders to praise the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
1Ch 16:8 Song. Give thanks to the Lord, call upon him by his name, make known his designs among the people.
1Ch 16:9 Sing [songs] to him, and sing hymns to him, relate to all [people] his wonderful deeds, which the Lord has wrought.
1Ch 16:10 Praise his holy name, the heart that seeks his pleasure shall rejoice.
1Ch 16:11 Seek the Lord and be strong, seek his face continually.
1Ch 16:12 Remember his wonderful works which he has wrought, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
1Ch 16:13 [ye] seed of Israel his servants, [ye] seed of Jacob his chosen ones.
1Ch 16:14 He [is] the Lord our God; his judgments [are] in all the earth.
1Ch 16:15 Let us remember his covenant for ever, his word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
1Ch 16:16 which he covenanted with Abraham, and his oath [sworn] to Isaac.
1Ch 16:17 He confirmed it to Jacob for an ordinance, to Israel [as] an everlasting covenant,
1Ch 16:18 saying, To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, the line of your inheritance:
1Ch 16:19 when they were few in number, when they were but little, and dwelt as strangers in it;
1Ch 16:20 and went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.
1Ch 16:21 He suffered not a man to oppress them, and he reproved kings for their sakes,
1Ch 16:22 saying, Touch not my anointed ones, and deal not wrongfully with my prophets.
1Ch 16:23 Sing ye to the Lord, all the earth; proclaim his salvation from day to day.
1Ch 16:24 Declare among the nations his glory, his wondrous deeds among all peoples.
1Ch 16:25 For the Lord [is] great, and greatly to be praised: he [is] to be feared above all gods.
1Ch 16:26 For all the gods of the nations [are] idols; but our God made the heavens.
1Ch 16:27 Glory and praise [are] in his presence; strength and rejoicing [are] in his place.
1Ch 16:28 Give to the Lord, ye families of the nations, give to the Lord glory and strength.
1Ch 16:29 Give to the Lord the glory [belonging] to his name: take gifts and offer [them] before him; and worship the Lord in his holy courts.
1Ch 16:30 Let the whole earth fear before him; let the earth be established, and not be moved.
1Ch 16:31 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; and let them say among the nations, The Lord reigns.
1Ch 16:32 The sea with its fullness shall resound and the tree of the field, and all things in it.
1Ch 16:33 Then shall the trees of the wood rejoice before the Lord, for he is come to judge the earth.
1Ch 16:34 Give thanks to the Lord, for [it is] good, for his mercy [is] for ever.
1Ch 16:35 And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us, and rescue us from among the heathen, that we may praise thy holy name, and glory in thy praises.
1Ch 16:36 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel from everlasting and to everlasting: And all the people shall say, Amen. So they praised the Lord.
1Ch 16:37 ¶ And they left there Asaph and his brethren before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to minister before the ark continually, according to the service of each day: from day to day.
1Ch 16:38 And Abdedom and his brethren [were] sixty and eight; and Abdedom the son of Idithun, and Osa, [were] to be door-keepers.
1Ch 16:39 And [they appointed] Sadoc the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place in Gabaon,
1Ch 16:40 to offer up whole-burnt-offerings continually morning and evening, and according to all things written in the law of the Lord, which he commanded the children of Israel by Moses the servant of God.
1Ch 16:41 And with him [were] Aeman and Idithun, and the rest chosen out by name to praise the Lord, for his mercy [endures] for ever.
1Ch 16:42 And with them [there were] trumpets and cymbals to sound aloud, and musical instruments for the songs of God: and the sons of Idithun [were] at the gate.
1Ch 16:43 And all the people went every one to his home: and David returned to bless his house.
1Ch 17:1 ¶ And it came to pass as David dwelt in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Behold, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the Lord [is] under [curtains] of skins.
1Ch 17:2 And Nathan said to David, Do all that is in thy heart; for God [is] with thee.
1Ch 17:3 And it came to pass in that night, that the word of the Lord came to Nathan, [saying],
1Ch 17:4 Go and say to David my servant, Thus said the Lord, Thou shalt not build me a house for me to dwell in it.
1Ch 17:5 For I have not dwelt in a house from the day that I brought up Israel until this day, but I have been in a tabernacle and a tent,
1Ch 17:6 in all places through which I have gone with all Israel: did I ever speak to [any] one tribe of Israel whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, [Why is it] that ye have not built me a house of cedar?
1Ch 17:7 And now thus shalt thou say to my servant David, Thus saith the Lord Almighty, I took thee from the sheepfold, from following the flocks, to be a ruler over my people Israel:
1Ch 17:8 and I was with thee in all places whither thou wentest, and I destroyed all thine enemies from before thee, and I made for thee a name according to the name of the great ones that are upon the earth.
1Ch 17:9 And I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and I will plant him, and he shall dwell by himself, and shall no longer be anxious; and the son of iniquity shall no longer afflict him, as at the beginning,
1Ch 17:10 and from the days when I appointed judges over my people Israel. Also I have humbled all thine enemies, and I will increase thee, and the Lord will build thee a house.
1Ch 17:11 And it shall come to pass when thy days shall be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
1Ch 17:12 He shall build me a house, and I will set up his throne for ever.
1Ch 17:13 I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son: and my mercy will I not withdraw from him, as I withdrew [it] from them that were before thee.
1Ch 17:14 And I will establish him in my house and in his kingdom for ever; and his throne shall be set up for ever.
1Ch 17:15 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spoke Nathan to David.
1Ch 17:16 ¶ And king David came and sat before the Lord, and said, Who am I, O Lord God? and what [is] my house, that thou hast loved me for ever?
1Ch 17:17 And these things were little in thy sight, O God: thou hast also spoken concerning the house of thy servant for a long time to come, and thou hast looked upon me as a man looks upon his fellow, and hast exalted me, O Lord God.
1Ch 17:18 What shall David do more toward thee to glorify [thee]? and thou knowest thy servant.
1Ch 17:19 And thou hast wrought all this greatness according to thine heart.
1Ch 17:20 O Lord, there is none like thee, and there is no God beside thee, according to all things which we have heard with our ears.
1Ch 17:21 Neither is there another nation upon the earth [such] as thy people Israel, whereas God led him in the way, to redeem a people for himself, to make for himself a great and glorious name, to cast out nations from before thy people, whom thou redeemedst out of Egypt.
1Ch 17:22 And thou hast appointed thy people Israel as a people to thyself for ever; and thou, Lord, didst become a God to them.
1Ch 17:23 And now, Lord, let the word which thou spokest to thy servant, and concerning his house, be confirmed for ever, and do thou as thou hast spoken.
1Ch 17:24 And let thy name [be] established and magnified for ever, [men] saying, Lord, Lord, Almighty God of Israel: and [let] the house of thy servant David [be] established before thee.
1Ch 17:25 For thou, O Lord my God, hast revealed to the ear of thy servant that thou wilt build him a house; therefore thy servant has found a willingness to pray before thee.
1Ch 17:26 And now, Lord, thou thyself art God, and thou hast spoken these good things concerning thy servant.
1Ch 17:27 And now thou hast begun to bless the house of thy servant, so that it should continue for ever before thee: for thou, Lord, hast blessed [it], and do thou bless [it] for ever.
1Ch 18:1 ¶ And it came to pass afterwards, that David smote the Philistines, and routed them, and took Geth and its villages out of the hand of the Philistines.
1Ch 18:2 And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became servants to David, [and] tributaries.
1Ch 18:3 And David smote Adraazar king of Suba of Emath, as he was going to establish power toward the river Euphrates.
1Ch 18:4 And David took of them a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand infantry: and David houghed all the chariot [horses], but there were reserved of them a hundred chariots.
1Ch 18:5 And the Syrian came from Damascus to help Adraazar king of Suba; and David smote of the Syrian [army] twenty and two thousand men.
1Ch 18:6 And David put a garrison in Syria near Damascus; and they became tributary servants to David: and the Lord delivered David wherever he went.
1Ch 18:7 And David took the golden collars that were on the servants of Adraazar, and brought them to Jerusalem.
1Ch 18:8 And David took out of Matabeth, and out of the chief cities of Adraazar very much brass: of this Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the brazen vessels.
1Ch 18:9 ¶ And Thoa king of Emath heard that David had smitten the whole force of Adraazar king of Suba.
1Ch 18:10 And he sent Aduram his son to king David to ask how he was, and to congratulate him because he had fought against Adraazar, and smitten him; for Thoa was the enemy of Adraazar.
1Ch 18:11 And all the golden and silver and brazen vessels, even these king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and the gold which he took from all the nations; from Idumaea, and Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalec.
1Ch 18:12 And Abesa son of Saruia smote the Idumeans in the valley of Salt, eighteen thousand.
1Ch 18:13 And he put garrisons in the valley; and all the Idumaeans became David’s servants: and the Lord delivered David wherever he went.
1Ch 18:14 So David reigned over all Israel; and he executed judgment and justice to all his people.
1Ch 18:15 And Joab the son of Saruia [was] over the army, and Josaphat the son of Achilud [was] recorder.
1Ch 18:16 And Sadoc son of Achitob, and Achimelech son of Abiathar, [were] the priests; and Susa [was] the scribe;
1Ch 18:17 and Banaeas the son of Jodae [was] over the Cherethite and the Phelethite, and the sons of David were the chief deputies of the king.
1Ch 19:1 ¶ And it came to pass after this, [that] Naas the king of the children of Ammon died, and Anan his son reigned in his stead.
1Ch 19:2 And David said, I will act kindly toward Anan the son of Naas, as his father acted kindly towards me. And David sent messengers to condole with him on the death of his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Anan, to comfort him.
1Ch 19:3 And the chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Anan, Is it to honour thy father before thee, that David has sent comforters to thee? Have not his servants come to thee that they might search the city, and to spy out the land?
1Ch 19:4 And Anan took the servants of David, and shaved them, and cut off the half of their garments as far as their tunic, and sent them away.
1Ch 19:5 And there came men to report to David concerning the men: and he sent to meet them, for they were greatly disgraced: and the king said, Dwell in Jericho until your beards have grown, and return.
1Ch 19:6 ¶ And the children of Ammon saw that the people of David were ashamed, and Anan and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for themselves chariots and horsemen out of Syria of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria Maacha, and from Sobal.
1Ch 19:7 And they hired for themselves two and thirty thousand chariots, and the king of Maacha and his people; and they came and encamped before Medaba: and the children of Ammon assembled out of their cities, and came to fight.
1Ch 19:8 And David heard, and sent Joab and all the host of mighty men.
1Ch 19:9 And the children of Ammon came forth, and set themselves in array for battle by the gate of the city: and the kings that were come forth encamped by themselves in the plain.
1Ch 19:10 And Joab saw that they were fronting [him] to fight against him before and behind, and he chose [some] out of all the young men of Israel, and they set themselves in array against the Syrian.
1Ch 19:11 And the rest of the people he gave into the hand of his brother Abesai, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
1Ch 19:12 And he said, If the Syrian should prevail against me, then shalt thou deliver me: and if the children of Ammon should prevail against thee, then will I deliver thee.
1Ch 19:13 Be of good courage, and let us be strong, for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the Lord shall do what [is] good in his eyes.
1Ch 19:14 So Joab and the people that were with him set themselves in battle array against the Syrians, and they fled from them.
1Ch 19:15 And the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, and they also fled from before Abesai, and from before Joab his brother, and they came to the city: and Joab came to Jerusalem.
1Ch 19:16 And the Syrian saw that Israel had defeated him, and he sent messengers, and they brought out the Syrians from beyond the river; and Sophath the commander-in-chief of the forces of Adraazar [was] before them.
1Ch 19:17 And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and crossed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So David set [his army] in array to fight against the Syrians, and they fought against him.
1Ch 19:18 And the Syrians fled from before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand [riders in] chariots, and forty thousand infantry, and he slew Sophath the commander-in-chief of the forces.
1Ch 19:19 And the servants of Adraazar saw that they were defeated before Israel, and they made peace with David and served him: and the Syrians would not any more help the children of Ammon.
1Ch 20:1 ¶ And it came to pass at the return of the year, at the [time of the] going forth of kings [to war], that Joab gathered the whole force of the army, and they ravaged the land of the children of Ammon; and he came and besieged Rabba. But David abode in Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabba and destroyed it.
1Ch 20:2 And David took the crown of Molchom their king off his head, and the weight of it was found [to be] a talent of gold, and on it were precious stones; and it was [placed] on the head of David: and he brought out the spoils of the city [which were] very great.
1Ch 20:3 And he brought out the people that were in it, and sawed them asunder with saws, and [cut them] with iron axes, and with harrows: and thus David did to all the children of Ammon. And David and all his people returned to Jerusalem.
1Ch 20:4 ¶ And it came to pass afterward that there was again war with the Philistines in Gazer: then Sobochai the Sosathite smote Saphut of the sons of the giants, and laid him low.
1Ch 20:5 And there [was] war again with the Philistines; and Eleanan the son of Jair smote Lachmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, and the wood of his spear [was] as a weavers’ beam.
1Ch 20:6 And there was again war in Geth, and there was a man of extraordinary size, and his fingers [and toes were] six on each hand and foot, four and twenty; and he was descended from the giants.
1Ch 20:7 And he defied Israel, and Jonathan the son of Samaa the brother of David slew him.
1Ch 20:8 These were born to Rapha in Geth; all four were giants, and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
1Ch 21:1 ¶ And the devil stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel.
1Ch 21:2 And king David said to Joab and to the captains of the forces, Go, number Israel from Bersabee even to Dan, and bring me [the account], and I shall know their number.
1Ch 21:3 And Joab said, May the Lord add to his people, a hundred-fold as many as they [are], and [let] the eyes of my lord the king see [it]: all [are] the servants of my lord. Why does my lord seek this thing? [do it not], lest it become a sin to Israel.
1Ch 21:4 Nevertheless the king’s word prevailed against Joab; and Joab went out and passed through all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
1Ch 21:5 And Joab gave the number of the mustering of the people to David: and all Israel was a million and a hundred thousand men that drew sword: and the sons of Juda [were] four hundred and seventy thousand men that drew sword.
1Ch 21:6 But he numbered not Levi and Benjamin among them; for the word of the king was painful to Joab.
1Ch 21:7 ¶ And [there was] evil in the sight of the Lord respecting this thing; and he smote Israel.
1Ch 21:8 And David said to God, I have sinned exceedingly, in that I have done this thing: and now, I pray thee, remove the sin of thy servant; for I have been exceedingly foolish.
1Ch 21:9 And the Lord spoke to Gad the seer, saying,
1Ch 21:10 Go and speak to David, saying, Thus saith the Lord, I bring three things upon thee: choose one of them for thyself, and I will do it to thee.
1Ch 21:11 And Gad came to David, and said to him, Thus saith the Lord, Choose for thyself,
1Ch 21:12 either three years of famine, or that thou shouldest flee three months from the face of thine enemies, and the sword of thine enemies [shall be employed] to destroy thee, or that the sword of the Lord and pestilence [should be] three days in the land, and the angel of the Lord [shall be] destroying in all the inheritance of Israel. And now consider what I shall answer to him that sent the message.
1Ch 21:13 And David said to Gad, They are very hard for me, even [all] the three: let me fall now into the hands of the Lord, for his mercies [are] very abundant, and let me not fall by any means into the hands of man.
1Ch 21:14 So the Lord brought pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
1Ch 21:15 And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the Lord saw, and repented for the evil, and said to the angel that was destroying, Let it suffice thee; withhold thine hand. And the angel of the Lord stood by the threshing-floor of Orna the Jebusite.
1Ch 21:16 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord, standing between the earth and the heaven, and his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem: and David and the elders clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.
1Ch 21:17 And David said to God, [Was it] not I [that] gave orders to number the people? and I am the guilty one; I have greatly sinned: but these sheep, what have they done? O Lord God, let thy hand be upon me, and upon my father’s house, and not on thy people for destruction, O Lord!
1Ch 21:18 ¶ And the angel of the Lord told Gad to tell David, that he should go up to erect and altar to the Lord, in the threshing-floor of Orna the Jebusite.
1Ch 21:19 And David went up according to the word of Gad, which he spoke in the name of the Lord.
1Ch 21:20 And Orna turned and saw the king; and he hid himself and his four sons with him. Now Orna was threshing wheat.
1Ch 21:21 And David came to Orna; and Orna came forth from the threshing-floor, and did obeisance to David with his face to the ground.
1Ch 21:22 And David said to Orna, Give me thy place of the threshing-floor, and I will build upon it an altar to the Lord: give it me for its worth in money, and the plague shall cease from [among] the people.
1Ch 21:23 And Orna said to David, Take it to thyself, and let my lord the king do what is right in his eyes: see, I have given the calves for a whole-burnt-offering, and the plough for wood, and the corn for a meat-offering; I have given all.
1Ch 21:24 And king David said to Orna, Nay; for I will surely buy it for its worth in money: for I will not take thy property for the Lord, to offer a whole-burnt-offering to the Lord without cost [to myself].
1Ch 21:25 And David gave to Orna for his place six hundred shekels of gold [by] weight.
1Ch 21:26 And David built there an altar to the Lord, and offered up whole-burnt-offerings and peace-offerings: and he cried to the Lord, and he answered him by fire out of heaven on the altar of whole-burnt-offerings, and [it] consumed the whole-burnt-offering.
1Ch 21:27 And the Lord spoke to the angel; and he put up the sword into its sheath.
1Ch 21:28 At that time when David saw that the Lord answered him in the threshing-floor of Orna the Jebusite, he also sacrificed there.
1Ch 21:29 And the tabernacle of the Lord which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of whole-burnt-offerings, [were] at that time in the high place at Gabaon.
1Ch 21:30 And David could not go before it to enquire of God; for he hasted not because of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
1Ch 22:1 ¶ And David said, This is the house of the Lord God, and this [is] the altar for whole-burnt-offering for Israel.
1Ch 22:2 And David gave orders to gather all the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he appointed stone-hewers to hew polished stones to build the house to God.
1Ch 22:3 And David prepared much iron for the nails of the doors and the gate; the hinges also and brass in abundance, there was no weighing [of it].
1Ch 22:4 And cedar threes without number: for the Sidonians and the Tyrians brought cedar trees in abundance to David.
1Ch 22:5 And David said, My son Solomon [is] a tender child, and the house [for me] to build to the Lord [is] for superior magnificence for a name and for a glory through all the earth: I will make preparation for it. And David prepared abundantly before his death.
1Ch 22:6 ¶ And he called Solomon his son, and commanded him to build the house for the Lord God of Israel.
1Ch 22:7 And David said to Solomon, [My] child, it was in my heart to build a house to the name of the Lord God.
1Ch 22:8 But the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast carried on great wars: thou shalt not build a house to my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth before me.
1Ch 22:9 Behold, a son shall be born to thee, he shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name [shall be] Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days.
1Ch 22:10 He shall build a house to my name; and he shall be a son to me, and I will be a father to him; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom in Israel for ever.
1Ch 22:11 And now, my son, the Lord shall be with thee, and prosper [thee]; and thou shalt build a house to the Lord thy God, as he spoke concerning thee.
1Ch 22:12 Only may the Lord give thee wisdom and prudence, and strengthen thee over Israel, both to keep and to do the law of the Lord thy God.
1Ch 22:13 Then will he prosper [thee], if thou take heed to do the commandments and judgments which the Lord commanded Moses for Israel: be courageous and strong; fear not, nor be terrified.
1Ch 22:14 And, behold, I according to my poverty have prepared for the house of the Lord a hundred thousand talents of gold, and a million talents of silver, and brass and iron without measure; for it is abundant; and I have prepared timber and stones; and do thou add to these.
1Ch 22:15 And [of them that are] with thee do thou add to the multitude of workmen; [let there be] artificers and masons, and carpenters, and every skilful [workman] in every work;
1Ch 22:16 in gold and silver, brass and iron, [of which] there is no number. Arise and do, and the Lord [be] with thee.
1Ch 22:17 ¶ And David charged all the chief men of Israel to help Solomon his son, [saying],
1Ch 22:18 [Is] not the Lord with you? and he has given you rest round about, for he has given into your hands the inhabitants of the land; and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before his people.
1Ch 22:19 Now set your hearts and souls to seek after the Lord your God: and rise, and build a sanctuary to your God to carry in the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the Lord.
1Ch 23:1 ¶ And David was old and full of days; and he made Solomon his son king over Israel in his stead.
1Ch 23:2 And he assembled all the chief men of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites.
1Ch 23:3 And the Levites numbered [themselves] from thirty years old and upward; and their number by their polls amounted to thirty and eight thousand men.
1Ch 23:4 Of the overseers over the works of the house of the Lord [there were] twenty-four thousand, and [there were] six thousand scribes and judges;
1Ch 23:5 and four thousand door-keepers, and four thousand to praise the Lord with instruments which he made to praise the Lord.
1Ch 23:6 And David divided them [into] daily courses, for the sons of Levi, for Gedson, Caath, and Merari.
1Ch 23:7 And for [the family of] Gedson, Edan, and Semei.
1Ch 23:8 The sons of Edan [were] Jeiel, the chief, and Zethan, and Joel, three.

1Ch 23:11 And Jeth was the chief, and Ziza the second: and Joas and Beria did not multiply sons, and they became [only] one reckoning according to the house of their father.
1Ch 23:12 The sons of Caath; Ambram, Isaar, Chebron, Oziel, four.
1Ch 23:13 The sons of Ambram; Aaron and Moses: and Aaron was appointed for the consecration of the most holy things, he and his sons for ever, to burn incense before the Lord, to minister and bless in his name for ever.
1Ch 23:14 And [as for] Moses the man of God, his sons were reckoned to the tribe of Levi.

1Ch 23:16 The sons of Gersam; Subael the chief.

1Ch 23:23 The sons of Musi; Mooli, and Eder, and Jarimoth, three.
1Ch 23:24 ¶ These [are] the sons of Levi according to the houses of their fathers; chiefs of their families according to their numbering, according to the number of their names, according to their polls, doing the works of service of the house of the Lord, from twenty years old and upward.
1Ch 23:25 For David said, The Lord God of Israel has given rest to his people, and has taken up his abode in Jerusalem for ever.
1Ch 23:26 And the Levites bore not the tabernacle, and all the vessels of it for its service.
1Ch 23:27 For by the last words of David was the number of the Levites [taken] from twenty years old and upward.
1Ch 23:28 For he appointed them to wait on Aaron, to minister in the house of the Lord, over the courts, and over the chambers, and over the purification of all the holy things, and over the works of the service of the house of God;
1Ch 23:29 and for the shew-bread, and for the fine flour of the meat-offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for the fried cake, and for the dough, and for every measure;
1Ch 23:30 and to stand in the morning to praise and give thanks to the Lord, and so in the evening;
1Ch 23:31 and [to be] over all the whole-burnt-offerings that were offered up to the Lord on the sabbaths, and at the new moons, and at the feasts, by number, according to the order [given] to them, continually before the Lord.
1Ch 23:32 And they are to keep the charge of the tabernacle of witness, and the charge of the holy place, and the charges of the sons of Aaron their brethren, to minister in the house of the Lord.
1Ch 24:1 ¶ And [they number] the sons of Aaron in [their] division, Nadab, and Abiud, and Eleazar, and Ithamar.
1Ch 24:2 And Nadab and Abiud died before their father, and they had no sons: so Eleazar and Ithamar the sons of Aaron ministered as priests.
1Ch 24:3 And David distributed them, even Sadoc of the sons of Eleazar, and Achimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their numbering, according to their service, according to the houses of their fathers.
1Ch 24:4 And there were found [among] the sons of Eleazar more chiefs of the mighty ones, than of the sons of Ithamar: and he divided them, sixteen heads of families to the sons of Eleazar, eight according to [their] families to the sons of Ithamar.
1Ch 24:5 And he divided them according to their lots, one with the other; for there were those who had charge of the holy things, and those who had charge of the [house] of the Lord among the sons of Eleazar, and among the sons of Ithamar.
1Ch 24:6 And Samaias the son of Nathanael, the scribe, [of the family] of Levi, wrote them down before the king, and the princes, and Sadoc the priest, and Achimelech the son of Abiathar [were present]; and the heads of the families of the priests and the Levites, each of a household [were assigned] one to Eleazar, and one to Ithamar.

1Ch 25:1 ¶ And king David and the captains of the host appointed to their services the sons of Asaph, and of Aeman, and of Idithun, prophesiers with harps, and lutes, and cymbals: and their number was according to their polls serving in their ministrations.
