1Ch 11:6 And Dauid sayde: Whosoeuer smyteth the Iebusites first, shalbe the principall captayne, and a lorde. So Ioab the sonne of Zaruia went first vp, and was made the chiefe captayne.
1Ch 11:7 And Dauid dwelt in the castell [Sion] and therefore they called it the citie of Dauid.
1Ch 11:8 And he built the citie on euery syde, euen from Millo round about: and Ioab repaired the rest of the citie.
1Ch 11:9 And Dauid prospered & waxed great, & the Lorde of hoastes was with him.

1Ch 11:17 And Dauid longed, and sayde: Oh that one woulde geue me drinke of the water of the well that is at the gate at Bethlehem.
1Ch 11:18 And the three brake through the hoast of the Philistines, and drewe water out of the wel that was by ye gate at Bethlehem, and toke it and brought it to Dauid: Neuerthelesse, Dauid woulde not drinke of it, but rather offered it to the Lorde,
1Ch 11:19 And sayd: my God forbyd it me that I shoulde do this thing: Shall I drinke the blood of these men, that haue put their liues in ieoperdie? for with the ieoperdie of their liues they brought it: therefore he would not drinke it. And this did these three mightiest.
1Ch 11:20 And Abisai the brother of Ioab, he also was captayne among three: For he lyft vp his speare against three hundred, and wounded them, and had a name among the three:
1Ch 11:21 Yea among three, he was more honorable then the two, for he was their captayne: Howbeit, he attayned not to the [first] three.
1Ch 11:22 Banaia ye sonne of Iehoiada, the sonne of a very strong man, which had done many actes, of Cabzeel: he slue two strong [lions] of Moab, & went downe and slue a lion in a pit in time of snowe.
1Ch 11:23 And he slue an Egyptian, whose stature was euen fiue cubites long, and in the Egyptians hand was a speare lyke a weauers beame: And the other went downe to him with a waster, & plucked the speare out of the Egyptians hand, and slue him with his owne speare.
1Ch 11:24 Such thinges did Banaia the sonne of Iehoiada, and had the name among the three mightiest,

1Ch 12:40 Moreouer, they that were nye them, euen vnto Isachar, Zabulon, & Nephthali, brought bread on asses, cammels, mules, & oxen, & meate, flowre, figges, reasinges, wine, & oyle, oxen, and sheepe aboundantly: For there was ioy in Israel.
1Ch 13:1 And Dauid counsailed with the captaynes of thousandes and hundredes, and with al the Lordes,
1Ch 13:2 And sayde vnto all the congregation of Israel: If it seeme you good, & to be of the Lord our God, we will send abrode vnto our brethren that are left in all the lande of Israel, and with them also to the priestes and Leuites which are in their suburbes, to gather them together vnto vs:
1Ch 13:3 And we will bring againe the arke of our God to vs: for we regarded it not in the dayes of Saul.
1Ch 13:4 And all the congregation was content that he should do so: for the thing seemed good in the eyes of all the people.
1Ch 13:5 So Dauid gathered all Israel together from Sihor in Egypt, vnto the entering of Hemath, to bring the arke of the Lorde from Kiriathiarim.

1Ch 13:8 And Dauid and all Israel played before the arke of God with all their might, with singing, and harpes, psalteries, and tymbrels, and cymbales, and trumpettes.
1Ch 13:9 And when they came vnto the thresshing floore of Chidon, Uzza put foorth his hande to holde the arke, for the oxen stumbled.
1Ch 13:10 And the Lorde was wroth with Uzza, and smote him, because he put his hand to the arke: and there he dyed before God.
1Ch 13:11 And Dauid was out of quiet because the Lorde had rent a rent in Uzza, and he called the name of that place, the renting of Uzza, vnto this day.
1Ch 13:12 And Dauid was afrayde of God that day, saying: how shall I bring the arke of God home to me?
1Ch 13:13 And so Dauid brought not the arke home to him to the citie of Dauid: but carryed it into the house of Obed Edom a Gethite.
1Ch 13:14 And the arke of God remayned with Obed Edom, euen in his house, three monethes: And the Lorde blessed the house of Obed Edom, & all that he had.
1Ch 14:1 So Hiram the king of Tyre sent messengers to Dauid, and timber of Cedar trees, with masons and carpeters, to builde him an house.
1Ch 14:2 And Dauid perceaued that the Lorde had confirmed him king vpon Israel, & that his kingdome was lift vp on hie because of his people Israel:
1Ch 14:3 And Dauid toke yet mo wyues at Hierusalem, and begat mo sonnes and daughters.

1Ch 14:6 Noga, Nepheg, and Iaphia,
1Ch 14:7 Elisama, Beeliada, and Eliphalet.
1Ch 14:8 And when the Philistines heard that Dauid was annoynted king vpon all Israel, all the Philistines went vp to seeke Dauid: And Dauid heard of it, & went out against them.
1Ch 14:9 And the Philistines came in, and spread them selues through the valley of Rephaim.
1Ch 14:10 And Dauid asked counsaile at God, saying: Shall I go against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliuer them into myne hand?
1Ch 14:11 And the Lorde saide vnto him: go vp, for I wil deliuer them into thyne hand. And so they came vp to Baal Perazim, and Dauid smote them there, and Dauid saide: God hath deuided myne enemies with myne hand, as a man would deuide water, and therefore they called the name of that place Baal Perazim.
1Ch 14:12 And when they had left their gods there, Dauid gaue a commaundement, and they were burnt with fire.
1Ch 14:13 And the Philistines came together againe, and russhed into the valley.
1Ch 14:14 And Dauid asked againe at God: And God said to him, Go not vp after them, but turne away from them that thou mayest come vpon them ouer against the peretrees.
1Ch 14:15 And when thou hearest a sounde go in the toppes of the peretrees, then go out to battaile: for God is gone forth before thee, to smyte the hoast of the Philistines.
1Ch 14:16 Dauid therfore did as God commaunded him, and they smote the hoast of the Philistines, from Gibeon to Gazer.
1Ch 14:17 And the fame of Dauid went out into all landes, and the Lorde made all nations feare him.
1Ch 15:1 And Dauid made him houses in the citie of Dauid, and prepared a place for the arke of God, and pitched for it a tent.
1Ch 15:2 Then Dauid saide: The arke of God ought not to be carryed but of the Leuites: For them hath the Lord chosen to beare the arke of the Lorde, and to minister vnto him for euer.
1Ch 15:3 And Dauid gathered all Israel together to Hierusalem, to fetch the arke of the Lorde vnto his place which he had ordayned for it.
1Ch 15:4 And Dauid brought together the children of Aaron and the Leuites.
1Ch 15:5 Of the sonnes of Caath, was Uriel the chiefe, & of his brethren there were an hundred and twentie.
1Ch 15:6 Of the children of Merari, Asaia the chiefe, and of his brethren two hundred and twentie.

1Ch 15:10 Of the sonnes of Uzziel, Aminadab the chiefe, and of his brethren an hundred and twelue.
1Ch 15:11 And Dauid called Zadoc and Abiathar the priestes: and the Leuites, Uzziel, Asaia, Ioel, Semaia, Eliel, and Aminadab,
1Ch 15:12 And saide vnto them: Ye that are the principall fathers of the Leuites, see that ye be holy with your brethren, that ye may bring in the arke of the Lorde God of Israel vnto the place that I haue prepared for it.
1Ch 15:13 For, because ye were not there at the first, the Lorde our God made a rent among vs, for that we sought him not as the fassion ought to be.
1Ch 15:14 So the priestes and the Leuites sanctified them selues, to fet the arke of the Lorde God of Israel.
1Ch 15:15 And the children of the Leuites bare the arke of God vpon their shoulders with staues thereon, as Moyses commaunded according to the worde of the Lorde.
1Ch 15:16 And Dauid spake to the chiefe heades of the Leuites, that they should appoynt certaine of their brethren to sing with instrumentes of musicke, psalteries, harpes, and cymbales, that they might make a sounde, and to sing on hie with ioyfulnesse.
1Ch 15:17 And the Leuites appoynted Heman the sonne of Ioel, and of his brethren, Asaph the sonne of Berechia, and of the sonnes of Merari and of their brethren, Ethan the sonne of Cusaiahu.

1Ch 15:21 Mathathiahu, Eliphalehu, Mikniahu, Obed Edom, Ieiel, and Azaiahu, played vpon harpes an eyght aboue, with courage.
1Ch 15:22 And Chenaniahu the chiefe of the Leuites was maister of the song: for he taught other to sing, because he was a man of vnderstanding.
1Ch 15:23 Berechia and Elcana kept the doore of the arke.
1Ch 15:24 And Sebaniahu, Iehosaphat, Nathanael, Amasai, Zachariahu, Banaiahu, and Eliezer the priestes did blowe with trumpettes before the arke of God: And Obed Edom and Iehia were kepers of the doore of the arke.
1Ch 15:25 And Dauid and the elders of Israel, and the captaynes ouer thousandes, went to fet the arke of the appoyntmet of the Lorde out of the house of Obed Edom with gladnesse.
1Ch 15:26 And when God helped the Leuites that bare the arke of the appoyntment of the Lorde, they offered seuen oxen, and seuen rammes.
1Ch 15:27 And Dauid had on him a linnen garment, lyke as had also all the Leuites that bare the arke, & so had the singers and Chenania the ruler of the songe, with the singers: and Dauid had vpon him an Ephod of linnen.
1Ch 15:28 And al they of Israel brought the arke of the Lordes couenaunt with showting, and blowing of the shawme, and trumpettes, making a noyse with cymbales, psalteries, and harpes.
1Ch 15:29 And as the arke of the appointment of the Lorde came into the citie of Dauid, Michol the daughter of Saul looking out at a windowe, sawe king Dauid daunsing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
1Ch 16:1 So they brought in the arke of God, and set it in the middest of the tent that Dauid pitched for it: And they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offringes before God.
1Ch 16:2 And when Dauid had made an end of offring the burnt offringes and peace offringes, he blessed the people in the name of the Lorde.
1Ch 16:3 And he dealt to all Israel both man and woman, a cracknel of bread, and a good peece of fleshe, and a flacket of wine.
1Ch 16:4 And he appoynted certaine of the Leuites to minister before the arke of the Lord, and to repeate, and to thanke and prayse the Lorde God of Israel.
1Ch 16:5 And Asaph was the chiefe, and nexte to him Zacharia, Ieiel, Semiramoth, Iehiel, Mathathia, Eliab, Benaia, Obed Edom, & Ieiel with instruments, psalteries, & harpes: But Asaph made a sounde with cymbales.
1Ch 16:6 Banaia and Iahaziel priestes blewe with trumpettes continually before the arke of the couenaunt of God.
1Ch 16:7 And that same tyme Dauid did appoynt chiefely to thanke the Lorde by Asaph and his brethren.
1Ch 16:8 Confesse you [it] vnto God, call vpon his name: cause the people to vnderstande his deuises.
1Ch 16:9 Sing vnto him, sing psalmes vnto him: talke you of all his wonderous workes.
1Ch 16:10 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them reioyce that do seeke God.
1Ch 16:11 Seeke God and his strength: seeke his face euermore.
1Ch 16:12 Remember the marueylous workes that he hath done: his wonders, and the iudgementes of his mouth,
1Ch 16:13 O ye seede of Abraham his seruaunt, ye his chosen children of Iacob:
1Ch 16:14 he is God our Lorde, his iudgementes are in all the earth.
1Ch 16:15 He hath ben mindfull alwayes of his couenaunt (for he promysed a word to a thousande generations:)
1Ch 16:16 euen of his couenaunt that he made with Abraham, and of his othe vnto Isaac.
1Ch 16:17 And he appoynted the same vnto Iacob for a law: and to Israel for an euerlasting couenaunt.
1Ch 16:18 Saying, vnto thee I wyll geue the lande of Chanaan: the lot of your inheritaunce.
1Ch 16:19 When they were a fewe men in number, and had ben straungers but a litle while in it:
1Ch 16:20 and when they went from one nation to another, from one kingdome to another people,
1Ch 16:21 He suffred no man to do them wrong: yea he reproued euen kinges for their sakes.
1Ch 16:22 Touche not myne annoynted: and triumph not ouer my prophetes.
1Ch 16:23 Sing vnto the Lorde all the earth: and shewe from day to day his saluation.
1Ch 16:24 Tell of his glory among the heathen: his wonderfull deedes among all natitions.
1Ch 16:25 For great is the Lorde, and worthy to be praysed exceedingly: he is to be feared aboue all gods.
1Ch 16:26 For all the gods of the people are but idoles: but the Lorde made heauen.
1Ch 16:27 Prayse and honour are in his presence: strength and gladnesse are in his place.
1Ch 16:28 Asscribe vnto the Lord ye kinredes of people, Asscribe to the Lorde glorie and dominion.
1Ch 16:29 Asscribe vnto the Lord the glorie due vnto his name, bring sacrifices, and come before him, and worship the Lord in his glorious sanctuarie.
1Ch 16:30 Let all the earth feare him: surely the world shalbe stable and not moue.
1Ch 16:31 Let the heauens reioyce, and let the earth be glad, and let men tel among the nations that the Lorde is king.
1Ch 16:32 Let the sea rore & the fulnesse thereof: let the fieldes reioyce, & all that is therin.
1Ch 16:33 Then shall the trees of the wood reioyce at the presence of the Lord, because he commeth to iudge the earth.
1Ch 16:34 O geue thankes vnto the Lorde, for he is good, for his mercie endureth euer:
1Ch 16:35 And say ye, saue vs O God our saluation, gather vs together, and deliuer vs from among the heathen, that we may geue thankes to thy holy name, and triumph in the prayse of thee.
1Ch 16:36 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for euer and euer: & let all people say Amen, and prayse the Lorde.
1Ch 16:37 And so he left there before the arke of the lordes couenaunt Asaph & his brethren, to minister before the arke continually, [in such thinges as were to be done] day by day.
1Ch 16:38 And Obed Edom and his brethren, threescore and eyght, and Obed Edom the sonne of Ieduthun, and Hosa, were appoynted to be porters.

1Ch 16:41 And with them were Heman and Ieduthun, and other that were chosen, whose names were expressed to geue thankes to the Lorde, That his mercie lasteth euer.
1Ch 16:42 And with them dyd Heman and Ieduthun sing with the trumpets and cymbales, making a sweete melodie with instrumentes of musicke & godly songues: And the sonnes of Ieduthun were porters.
1Ch 16:43 And al the people departed euery man to his house, & Dauid returned to blesse his house.
1Ch 17:1 And it fortuned, that when Dauid dwelt in his house, he sayde to Nathan the prophete: Lo, I dwel in an house of Cedar tree, but the arke of the lordes couenaunt remayneth vnder curtaynes.
1Ch 17:2 And Nathan sayde vnto Dauid: Do all that is in thyne heart, for God is with thee.
1Ch 17:3 And the same night, it fortuned that the worde of God came to, Nathan, saying:
1Ch 17:4 Go and tell Dauid my seruaunt, thus sayth the Lorde, Thou shalt not buylde me an house to dwell in:
1Ch 17:5 For I haue dwelt in no house sence the day that I brought out the children of Israel, vnto this day: but haue gone from tent to tent, and from one habitation to an other.
1Ch 17:6 And whersoeuer I haue walked with all Israel, spake I euer one worde to any of the iudges of Israel, whom I commaunded to feede my people, saying, Why haue ye not buylt me an house of Cedar tree?
1Ch 17:7 Nowe therfore thus shalt thou say vnto my seruaunt Dauid, thus sayth the Lorde of hoastes: I toke thee from the sheepe coate, and from folowing the sheepe, that thou shouldest be captayne ouer my people Israel:
1Ch 17:8 And I haue ben with thee whyther soeuer thou hast walked, and haue weeded out all thyne enemies out of thy sight, & haue made thee a name like the name of the greatest men that are in the earth.
1Ch 17:9 And I haue ordeyned a place for my people Israel and made it fast, so that nowe they may dwell in their place, and moue no more: Neither shall the children of wickednesse vexe them any more as at the beginning.
1Ch 17:10 And sence the time that I commaunded iudges to be ouer my people Israel, I haue subdued all thyne enemies: and I told thee that the Lord would buyld thee an house.
1Ch 17:11 This also shal come to passe: when thy dayes be expired that thou must go vnto thy fathers, I will rayse vp thy seede after thee, which shalbe of thy sonnes, and I will stablishe his kingdome.
1Ch 17:12 He shall buylde me an house, and I wil stablishe his seate for euer.
1Ch 17:13 I wilbe his father, and he shalbe my sonne, and I will not take my mercie away from him, as I toke it from hym that was before thee.
1Ch 17:14 But I wil stablishe him in myne house and my kingdome for euer, and his seate shalbe sure for euermore.
1Ch 17:15 According to all these wordes, and according to al this vision, did Nathan tell king Dauid.
1Ch 17:16 And Dauid the king came and sate before the Lord, and sayde: What am I O Lord God, and what is myne houshold, that thou hast promoted me thus farre?
1Ch 17:17 And yet this seemed litle in thyne eyes, O God: But thou hast also spoken of thy seruauntes house for a great whyle to come, and hast loked vpon me as vpon a man of hye degree, O Lorde God.
1Ch 17:18 What shall Dauid desire more of thee for the honour of thy seruaunt? For thou hast knowen thy seruaunt.
1Ch 17:19 O Lord, for thy seruauntes sake, euen according to thine owne heart, hast thou done all this magnificence, to shewe all great thinges.
1Ch 17:20 Lord there is none like thee, neither is there any God saue thou, according to al that we haue hearde with our eares.
1Ch 17:21 Moreouer, what nation on the earth is like thy people Israel, to whom God hath vouchsafed to come and redeeme them to be his owne people, and to make thee a name of excellencie & terriblenes, with casting out nations from before the people, whom thou hast deliuered out of Egypt?
1Ch 17:22 Thy people of Israel diddest thou make thyne owne people for euer, and thou becamest their God.
1Ch 17:23 Therfore now Lord, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy seruaunt & his house, be true for euer, that thou Lord do as thou hast sayde:
1Ch 17:24 Let it come to passe, that thy name may be magnified for euer, that it may be said, The Lord of hoastes is the God of Israel, euen the God of Israel, and the house of Dauid thy seruaunt endureth stable before thee.
1Ch 17:25 For thou O my God, hast tolde thy seruaunt that thou wilt buylde him an house, and therefore thy seruaunt hath founde in his heart to pray before thee.
1Ch 17:26 And now Lorde, thou art God, & hast promised this goodnes vnto thy seruaut
1Ch 17:27 Nowe therefore let it be thy pleasure to blesse the house of thy seruaunt, that it may continue before thee for euer: For whom thou blessest O Lorde, the same is blessed for euer.
1Ch 18:1 And after this, it fortuned that Dauid smote the Philistines, & subdued them, and toke Geth and the townes that longed therto out of the handes of the Philistines.
1Ch 18:2 And he smote Moab, and the Moabites became Dauids seruauntes, and payde him tribute.
1Ch 18:3 And Dauid smote Hadarezer king of Zoba vnto Hanath, as he went to stablishe his dominion by the riuer Euphrates.
1Ch 18:4 And Dauid toke from him a thousand charets, and seuen thousande horsemen, and twentie thousande footemen, and lamed all the charet horses, and reserued of them an hundred charets.
1Ch 18:5 And when the Syrians of Damascon came to helpe Hadarezer king of Zoba, Dauid slue of the Syrians twentie and two thousande.
1Ch 18:6 And Dauid put souldiers in Syria Damascon, and the Syrians became Dauids seruauntes, and brought him tribute: And the Lord preserued Dauid in all that he went to.
1Ch 18:7 And Dauid toke the shieldes of golde that were on the seruauntes of Hadarezer, and brought them to Hierusalem.
1Ch 18:8 And from Tebhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezar, brought Dauid exceeding much brasse, wherwith Solomon made the brasen lauatorie, the pillers, and the vessels of brasse.
1Ch 18:9 And when Thou king of Hemath heard how Dauid had beaten al the strength of Hadarezer king of Zoba,
1Ch 18:10 He sent Hadoram his sone to king Dauid, to make peace with him, & to blesse him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and beaten him (for Thou had warre with Hadarezer) and [Hadoram brought] all maner of iewels of golde, siluer, and brasse, with him.
1Ch 18:11 And king Dauid dedicated them vnto the Lord, with the siluer and golde that he brought fro all nations, from Edom, fro Moab, from ye children of Ammon, from the Philistines, and from Amelec.
1Ch 18:12 And Abisai the sonne of Zaruia slue of the Edomites in the salt valley eyghteene thousande,
1Ch 18:13 And put souldiers in Edom, and all the Edomites became Dauid seruauntes: Thus the Lorde kept Dauid in all that he toke in hande.
1Ch 18:14 And Dauid raigned ouer all Israel, and executed iudgement and righteousnesse among all his people.
1Ch 18:15 And Ioab the sonne of Zaruia was ouer the hoast, & Iehosaphat the sonne of Ahilud recorder:
1Ch 18:16 And Zadoc the sonne of Ahitob and Abimelech the sonne of Abiathar were the priestes, and Sausa was scribe,
1Ch 18:17 And Banaiahu the sonne of Iehoiada was ouer the Crethites and the Phelethites: and the sonnes of Dauid were next vnto the king.
1Ch 19:1 After this, it chaunced that Nahas the king of the children of Ammon dyed, & his sonne raigned in his steade.
1Ch 19:2 And Dauid sayde: I will shewe kindnesse vnto Hanon the sonne of Nahas, because his father dealt kindly with me. And Dauid sent messengers to comfort him ouer the death of his father: And the seruauntes of Dauid came into the lande of the children of Ammon to Hanon, to comfort him.
1Ch 19:3 But the lordes of the children of Ammon sayd to Hanon: Thinkest thou that Dauid doeth honour thy father in thy sight, that he hath sent comforters vnto thee? Are not his seruauntes come to search, to loke, and espie out the land?
1Ch 19:4 Wherefore Hanon toke Dauids seruauntes, and shaued them, and cut of their coates harde by their buttockes, & sent them away.
1Ch 19:5 And there went certayne and told Dauid how the men were serued: And the king sent to meete them (for the men were exceedingly ashamed) and the king sayde: Tary at Iericho vntill your beardes be growen, and then returne.
1Ch 19:6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they stanke in the sight of Dauid, Hanon and the children of Ammon sent a thousande talentes of siluer to hyre them charets and horsmen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria Maacha, and out of Zoba.
1Ch 19:7 And they hyred thirtie and two thousande charets, and the king of Maacha and his people: which came and pitched before Medeba: And the children of Ammon gathered them selues together fro their cities, and came to battayle.
1Ch 19:8 And when Dauid hearde of it, he sent Ioab and all the hoast of strong men.
1Ch 19:9 And the children of Ammon came out, and put them selues in aray to battayle before the gate of the citie: And ye kinges that were come, kept them by them selues backe in the fielde.
1Ch 19:10 When Ioab also saw that the frunt of the battayle was against him before and behind, he chose out of al the chosen men of Israel, and put them in aray against the Syrians.
1Ch 19:11 And the rest of ye people he deliuered vnto the hand of Abisai his brother, & they put them selues in aray against the children of Ammon.
1Ch 19:12 And he sayde: If the Syrians be to strong for me, thou shalt succour me, and if the children of Ammon preuayle against thee, I will helpe thee.
1Ch 19:13 Plucke vp thyne heart, and let vs play the men for our peoples sake, and for the cities of our God: and the Lord shall do that which is good in his owne sight.
1Ch 19:14 So Ioab and the people that were with him, drue nye before the Syrians vnto the battayle: and they fled before him.
1Ch 19:15 And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they ran away likewise before Abisai his brother, and gat them into the citie: and Ioab came to Hierusalem.
1Ch 19:16 And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers and set out the Syrians that were beyond the riuer: and Sophach the captayne of the hoast of Hadarezer went before them.
1Ch 19:17 And it was told Dauid: and he gathered all Israel, and went together ouer Iordane, and came and set vpon them: And when Dauid had put hym selfe in aray against the Syrians, they fought with him.
1Ch 19:18 But the Syrians fled before Israel, and Dauid destroyed of the Syrians seuen thousand charets, and fourtie thousand footemen, and killed Sophach the captayne of the hoast.
1Ch 19:19 And when the seruauntes of Hadarezer sawe that they were put to ye worse before them of Israel, they made peace with Dauid, & became his seruauntes: Neither would the Syrians helpe the children of Ammon any more.
1Ch 20:1 And it came to passe, that after the yere was expired (about ye time that kinges go out a warrefare) Ioab caryed out the armie of the hoast, and destroyed the countrey of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabba, and destroyed it: But Dauid taried at Hierusalem whyle Ioab smote Rabba and destroyed it.
1Ch 20:2 And Dauid toke the crowne of their king from of his head, and founde that it had the wayght of a talent of golde, and there were precious stones in it, and it was set vpon Dauids head: And he brought also exceeding much spoyle out of the citie.
1Ch 20:3 And he brought out the people that were in it, and tormented them with sawes and harrowes of iron, and with other sharpe instrumentes, and so dealt Dauid with all the cities of the children of Ammon: And Dauid and all the people came againe to Hierusalem.
1Ch 20:4 After this, it fortuned that there arose warre at Gazer with the Philistines: at which time Sobokai the Husathite slue Sippai that was of the children of Rephaim, and they were subdued.
1Ch 20:5 And there was battayle agayne with the Philistines, & Elhanan the sonne of Iair slue Lahemi the brother of Goliah the Gethite, whose speare was lyke a weauers beame.
1Ch 20:6 And there chaunced yet againe warre at Geth, where as was a man of a great stature, with twentie and foure fingers and toes, sixe on euery hand, and sixe on euery foote, and was the sonne of Raphah.
1Ch 20:7 But when he defyed Israel, Iehonathan the sonne of Simea Dauids brother slue him.
1Ch 20:8 These were borne vnto Raphah at Geth, and were ouerthrowen in the hande of Dauid and in the hande of his seruauntes.
1Ch 21:1 And Satan stoode vp against Israel, and prouoked Dauid to number Israel.
1Ch 21:2 And Dauid sayde to Ioab and to the rulers of the people: Go ye and number Israel from Beerseba to Dan: & bring it to me, that I may knowe the number of them.
1Ch 21:3 And Ioab aunswered: The Lorde make his people an hundred times so many mo as they be: But my lorde, O king, are they not all my lordes seruauntes? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will my lorde be a cause of trespasse to Israel?
1Ch 21:4 Neuerthelesse the kinges word preuayled against Ioab: And Ioab departed, and walked throughout all them of Israel, and came to Hierusalem againe,
1Ch 21:5 And gaue the summe of the number of the people vnto Dauid: And all they of Israel were a thousande thousand and an hundred thousande men that drue sworde: and Iuda was foure hundred threescore and ten thousande men that drue sworde.
1Ch 21:6 But the Leuites and Beniamin counted he not among them: For the kinges word was abhominable to Ioab.
1Ch 21:7 And the Lorde was displeased with this thing, and smote Israel.
1Ch 21:8 And Dauid sayde vnto God: I haue sinned exceedingly in doyng this thing: And nowe I besech thee, do away the wickednesse of thy seruaunt, for I haue done very foolyshly.
1Ch 21:9 And the Lord spake vnto Gad Dauids sear, saying:
1Ch 21:10 Go, and tell Dauid, saying, thus sayth the Lord, I geue thee the choyse of three thinges: choose the one of them, that I may do vnto thee.
1Ch 21:11 And Gad came to Dauid, and sayd vnto him, thus sayth the Lorde: Choose thee
1Ch 21:12 Eyther three yeres famishment, or three monethes to be destroyed before thyne aduersaries, & that the sworde of thyne enemies may ouertake thee: or els the sworde of the Lord and pestilence in the lande three dayes, and the angell of the Lorde destroying throughout all the coastes of Israel: And nowe aduise thy selfe, what worde I shal bring againe to him that sent me.
1Ch 21:13 And Dauid sayde vnto Gad, I am in an exceeding strayte: Let me fall nowe into the hande of the Lorde (for passing great are his mercies) but let me not fal into the hand of men.
1Ch 21:14 So the Lorde sent pestilence vpon Israel: and there were ouerthrowen of Israel threescore and ten thousande men.
1Ch 21:15 And God sent the angell into Hierusalem to destroy it: And as he was about to destroy, the Lorde behelde, and had compassion on the euyll, & sayde to the angel that destroyed: It is enough, let nowe thyne hand ceasse. And the angel of the Lorde stoode by the threshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite.
1Ch 21:16 And Dauid lift vp his eyes, and sawe the angell of the Lorde stand betweene the earth and heauen, hauing a drawen sword in his hand, stretched out toward Hierusalem: Then Dauid and the elders of Israel whiche were clothed in sacke, fell vpon their faces.
1Ch 21:17 And Dauid sayde vnto God: Is it not I that commaunded the people to be numbred? It is I that haue sinned and done euyll in deede: and what haue these sheepe done? Let thyne hande O Lorde my God be on me, and on my fathers house: but not on thy people, that they shoulde be punished.
1Ch 21:18 And the angell of the Lord commaunded Gad to say to Dauid, that Dauid shoulde go vp and set vp an aulter vnto the Lorde in the threshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite.
1Ch 21:19 And Dauid went vp according to the saying of Gad whiche he spake in the name of the Lorde.
1Ch 21:20 And Ornan turned about, and saw the angell, and his foure sonnes were with him, and hyd them selues: But Ornan was threshing wheate.
1Ch 21:21 And as Dauid came to Ornan, Ornan loked and sawe Dauid, and went out of the threshing floore, and bowed hym selfe to Dauid with his face to the grounde.
1Ch 21:22 And Dauid sayde to Ornan: Geue me the place of the threshing floore, that I may buylde an aulter therin vnto the lord: Thou shalt geue it me for as much money as it is worth, that the plague may ceasse from the people.
1Ch 21:23 And Ornan sayd vnto Dauid: Take it to thee, and let my lorde the king do that which seemeth good in his eyes: Lo, I geue thee oxen also for burnt sacrifices, and treshing instrumentes for wood, & wheate for meate offring, I geue it all.
1Ch 21:24 And king Dauid sayde to Ornan: Not so, but I will bye it for as much money as it is worth: For I will not take that whiche is thyne for the Lorde, nor offer burnt offringes without coast.
1Ch 21:25 And so Dauid gaue to Ornan for that place sicles of golde sixe hundred by wayght.
1Ch 21:26 And Dauid buylt there an aulter vnto the Lorde, and offred burnt offringes and peace offringes, and called vpon the Lorde, and he hearde him from heauen in fire vpon the aulter of burnt offring.
1Ch 21:27 And when the Lorde had spoken to the angel, he put vp his sword againe into the sheathe of it.
1Ch 21:28 At that time when Dauid sawe that the Lorde had hearde him in the thresshing floore of Ornan the Iebusite, he vsed to offer there:
1Ch 21:29 For the tabernacle of the Lorde which Moyses made in the wildernesse, & the aulter of burnt offring, were at that season in the hill of Gibeon:
1Ch 21:30 And Dauid coulde not go before it, to aske counsell at God, for he was afrayde of the sword of the angel of the Lorde.
1Ch 22:1 And Dauid said: This is the house of the lord God, & this is the aulter for the burnt offring of Israel.
1Ch 22:2 And Dauid commaunded to gather together the straungers that were in the lande of Israel, and he set masons to hew and pullishe stones for the building of the house of God.
1Ch 22:3 And Dauid prepared plentie of iron for nayles, & doores of the gates, & to ioyne withal, and aboundaunce of brasse without wayght,
1Ch 22:4 And Cedar trees without number: For the Zidons and they of Tyre brought much Cedar wood to Dauid.
1Ch 22:5 And Dauid sayde: Solomon my sonne is young and tender, and the house that is to be buylded for the Lorde must be magnificall, excellent, and of great fame and dignitie throughout all countreys: I wil therfore make ordinaunces for it. And so Dauid prepared many thinges before his death.
1Ch 22:6 And he called Solomon his sonne, and charged him to buylde an house for the Lorde God of Israel.
1Ch 22:7 And Dauid sayde to Solomon: My sonne, I thought [as it was] in myne heart to buylde an house vnto the name of the Lorde my God:
1Ch 22:8 But the word of the Lord came to me, saying: Thou hast shed much blood, and hast made great battayles: thou shalt therefore not buylde an house vnto my name, for thou hast shed much blood vpon the earth in my sight.
1Ch 22:9 Behold, a sonne is borne to thee, and he shalbe a man of rest, for I wil geue him rest from all his enemies rounde about: For his name is Solomon, & I wil send rest and peace vpon Israel in his dayes.
1Ch 22:10 He shall buylde an house for my name, and he shalbe my sonne, and I wilbe his father, and I wil establishe the seate of his kingdome vpon Israel for euer.
1Ch 22:11 Nowe therfore my sonne, the Lorde be with thee, and prosper thee, and thou shalt buylde an house to the Lorde thy God, as he hath sayde of thee.
1Ch 22:12 And the Lord shall geue thee wysdom and vnderstanding, and shall geue thee commaundementes for Israel, that thou mayst kepe the lawe of the Lorde thy God.
1Ch 22:13 For then thou shalt prosper, euen when thou takest heede and fulfillest the statutes and lawes which the Lorde charged Moyses with for Israel: Plucke vp thyne hearte therfore, & be strong, dread not, nor be discouraged.
1Ch 22:14 Behold, according to my pouertie haue I also prepared for the house of the Lorde, an hundred thousande talentes of golde, and a thousande thousande talentes of siluer: and as for brasse & iron, it can not be nubred, (for it is verie much) And I haue prepared timber and stone, and thou mayest prouide more thereto.
1Ch 22:15 Moreouer, thou hast workemen with thee mowe, and masons, and carpenters [to worke in stone and timber,] & many men that be actiue for euery worke,
1Ch 22:16 And of golde, siluer, brasse, & iron, there is no number: Up therefore, and be doing, and the Lorde shalbe with thee.
1Ch 22:17 And Dauid commaunded al the lordes of Israel to helpe Solomon his sonne, saying:
1Ch 22:18 Is not the Lord your God with you? and hath he not geuen you rest on euery side? for he hath geuen the inhabitours of the lande into my hande, and the land is subdued before the Lorde, and before his people.
1Ch 22:19 Nowe therefore set your heartes and your soules to seke the Lord your God: Up, and buylde ye the temple of the Lord God, to bring the arke of the couenaunt of the Lorde and the holy vessels of God into the house so buylt for the name of the Lorde.
1Ch 23:1 So when Dauid was olde and full of dayes, he made Solomon his sonneking ouer Israel.
1Ch 23:2 And then he gathered together all the lordes of Israel, with the priestes and the Leuites.
1Ch 23:3 And the Leuites were numbred from the age of thirtie yeres and aboue: and the number and summe of them was thirtie and eyght thousande men.
1Ch 23:4 Of which twentie and foure thousand were set to further the worke of the house of the Lorde: and sixe thousande were officers and iudges.
1Ch 23:5 Foure thousande were porters, & foure thousand praysed the Lorde with such instrumentes as was made to prayse withall.
1Ch 23:6 And so Dauid put an order among them deuiding them, in partes: Of the children of Leui, Gerson, Caath, and Merari.
1Ch 23:7 Of the Gersonites was Laadan, and Semei.
1Ch 23:8 The sounes of Laadan, the chiefe was Iehiel, Zethan, and Ioel, three.
1Ch 23:9 The sonnes of Semei: Selomith, Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the auncient fathers of Laadan.
1Ch 23:10 And the sonnes of Semei: were, Iahath, Zina, Ieus, & Beria: these foure were the sonnes of Semei.
1Ch 23:11 And Iahath was the chiefe, Ziza the seconde: but Ieus, and Beria had not many sonnes, therfore they were in one reckening according to their fathers housholde, reckened for one auncient housholde.
1Ch 23:12 The sonnes of Caath: Amram, Izahar, Hebron, and Uzziel, foure.
1Ch 23:13 The sonnes of Amram: Aaron, and Moyses: And Aaron was separated to haue the rule of the holy thinges in the place most holy, he & his sonnes for euer, and to burne incense before the Lorde, and to minister vnto him, and to blesse in his name for euer.
1Ch 23:14 Moyses also the man of God, and his children, were named with the tribe of Leui.
1Ch 23:15 The sonnes of Moyses: Gerso, & Eliezer.
1Ch 23:16 Of the sonnes of Gersom, Sebuel was the chiefe.
1Ch 23:17 The sonnes of Eliezer, Rehabia the chiefe: And Eliezer had none other sonnes, but the sonnes of Rehabia were verie many.
1Ch 23:18 The sonnes of Izahar, Selomith the chiefe.
1Ch 23:19 The sonnes of Hebron, Ieriahu the first, Amaria the seconde, Iahaziel the thirde, and Iermaam the fourth.
1Ch 23:20 The sonnes of Uzziel: Micha the first, and Iesia the seconde.
1Ch 23:21 The sonnes of Merati: Mahli, & Musi. The sonnes of Mahli: Eleazar and Cis.
1Ch 23:22 And Eleazar dyed, and had no sonnes, but daughters: and their brethren the sonnes of Cis toke them.
1Ch 23:23 The sonnes of Musi: Mahli, Eder, and Ieremoth, three.
1Ch 23:24 These are the children of Leui after the houshold of their fathers, euen the auncient of the fathers according to their offices, and after the number and summe of the names of them that dyd the worke in the seruice of the house of the Lord, from the age of twentie yeres and aboue.
1Ch 23:25 And Dauid sayde: The Lorde God of Israel hath geuen rest vnto his people, that they may dwell in Hierusalem for euer.
1Ch 23:26 That the Leuites also shoulde nowe no more beare the tabernacle, and al the vessels for the seruice thereof.
1Ch 23:27 For according to the last wordes of Dauid, the Leuites were numbred from twentie yeres and aboue.
1Ch 23:28 And their office was vnder the hande of the sonnes of Aaron, for the seruice of the house of the Lorde in the courtes and celles, and in the purifying of all holy thinges, and in the worke of the seruice of the house of God:
1Ch 23:29 In the shewbread, in the fine flowre, in the meate offring, in ye wafers of sweete bread, in the frying panne, in the gredyron, and in all maner of measures & sise:
1Ch 23:30 And to stand euery day in the morning to thanke and prayse the Lorde, and so likewise at euen:
1Ch 23:31 And to offer all burnt sacrifices vnto the Lord, in the Sabbathes, in the new moones, and on the feastfull dayes, by number and custome continually as they were commaunded, before the Lord.
1Ch 23:32 And that they should wayte on the tabernacle of the congregation, & on the holy place, and on the sonnes of Aaron their brethre, in the seruice of the house of the Lord.
1Ch 24:1 These are the deuisions of the sonnes of Aaro. The sonnes of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
1Ch 24:2 Nadab also and Abihu dyed before their father, & had no children: But Eleazar, & Ithamar executed the priestes office.
1Ch 24:3 And Dauid ordred them on this maner: Zadoc of the sonnes of Eleazar, and Ahimelec of the sonnes of Ithamar [were] according to their offices in their ministration.
1Ch 24:4 And there were mo auncient men founde among the sonnes of Eleazar, then the sonnes of Ithamar. And thus were they ordred together: Among the sonnes of Eleazar there were sixteene rulers according to the houshold of their fathers, and eyght among the sonnes of Ithamar according to the housholde of their fathers.
1Ch 24:5 And thus were they put in order by lot the one sort from the other: and so were there rulers in the sanctuarie and lordes before God, aswell of the sonnes of Eleazer, as of the sonnes of Ithamar.
1Ch 24:6 And Semeia the sonne of Nathanael the scribe, of the kinred of the Leuites, wrote them before the king & the lordes, & before Zadoc the priest and Ahimelec the sonne of Abiathar, and before the auncient fathers of the priestes and Leuites, one principall housholde being reserued for Eleazar, and one for Ithamar.
1Ch 24:7 And the first lot fell to Iehoiarib: and the seconde to Iedaia,
1Ch 24:8 The third to Harim, and the fourth to Sehorim,
