2. even in time past, even in Saul's being king, it is thou who art taking out and bringing in Israel, and Jehovah thy God saith to thee: Thou dost feed My people Israel, and thou art leader over My people Israel.'
3. And all the elders of Israel come in unto the king to Hebron, and David maketh with them a covenant in Hebron before Jehovah, and they anoint David for king over Israel, according to the word of Jehovah by the hand of Samuel.
4. And David goeth, and all Israel, to Jerusalem--it [is] Jebus--and there the Jebusite, the inhabitants of the land.
5. And the inhabitants of Jebus say to David, `Thou dost not come in hither;' and David captureth the fortress of Zion--it [is] the city of David.
