Adam, Seth, Enosh...
These are the sons of
Israel
: Reuben, Simeon, Levi and
Judah
, Issachar and
Zebulun
...
Now these were
David
's sons, whose
birth
took place in
Hebron
: the oldest
Amnon
, by
Ahinoam
of
Jezreel
; the second
Daniel
, by
Abigail
the Carmelite
woman
...
The sons of
Judah
: Perez, Hezron and
Carmi
and
Hur
and
Shobal
...
And the sons of
Reuben
, the oldest son of
Israel
, (for he was the oldest son, but, because he made his
father
's bride-bed unclean, his
birthright
was given to the sons of
Joseph
, the son of
Israel
; but he is not to be given the place of the oldest...
The sons of
Levi
: Gershon, Kohath, and
Merari
...
And of the sons of
Issachar
: Tola and
Puah
, Jashub and
Shimron
, four...
And
Benjamin
was the
father
of
Bela
his oldest son, Ashbel the second, and Aharah the third...
So all
Israel
was listed by their families; and, truly, they are recorded in the
book
of the kings of
Israel
. And
Judah
was taken away as prisoners to
Babylon
because of their
sin
...
Now the
Philistines
were fighting against
Israel
; and the men of
Israel
went in flight before the
Philistines
, falling down wounded in
Mount
Gilboa
...
Then all
Israel
came together to
David
at
Hebron
, and said, Truly, we are your bone and your
flesh
...
Now these are the men who came to
David
at
Ziklag
, while he was still shut up, because of
Saul
, the son of
Kish
; they were among the strong men, his helpers in
war
...
Then
David
had discussions with the captains of
thousands
and the captains of hundreds and with every chief...
And
Hiram
, king of
Tyre
, sent men to
David
with cedar-trees, and stoneworkers and woodworkers for the
building
of his
house
...
And
David
made houses for himself in the town of
David
; and he got ready a place for the
ark
of
God
, and put up a
tent
for it...
Then they took in the
ark
of
God
and put it inside the
tent
which
David
had put up for it; and they made offerings, burned offerings and peace-offerings before
God
...
Now when
David
was living in his
house
, he said to
Nathan
the
prophet
, See, I am living in a
house
of cedar-wood, but the
ark
of the
Lord
's agreement is under the curtains of a
tent
...
And it came about after this that
David
made an attack on the
Philistines
and overcame them, and took
Gath
with its daughter-towns out of the hands of the
Philistines
...
Now it came about after this that
death
came to
Nahash
, the
king
of the children of
Ammon
, and his son became
king
in his place...
Now in the
spring
, at the time when kings go out to
war
, Joab went out at the head of the armed
forces
and made waste all the land of the Ammonites and put his men in position before
Rabbah
, shutting it in. But
David
was still at
Jerusalem
. And
Joab
took
Rabbah
and made it waste...
Now
Satan
, designing evil against
Israel
, put into
David
's mind the impulse to take the number of
Israel
...
Then
David
said, This is the
house
of the
Lord
God
, and this is the
altar
for
Israel
's burned offerings...
Now
David
was old and full of days; and he made his son
Solomon
king
over
Israel
...
Now the divisions into which the sons of
Aaron
were grouped were these: the sons of
Aaron
, Nadab and
Abihu
, Eleazar and
Ithamar
...
Further, David and the chiefs of the servants of the holy place made selection of certain of the sons of
Asaph
and of
Heman
and of
Jeduthun
for the work of prophets, to make melody with corded instruments and
brass
; and the number of the men for the work they had to do was...
For the divisions of the door-keepers: of the
Korahites
, Meshelemiah, the son of
Kore
, of the sons of Ebiasaph...
Now the number of the children of
Israel
, that is, the heads of families, and the captains of
thousands
and of hundreds, and the men in authority who were servants of the
king
in anything to do with the divisions which came in and went out
month
by
month
through all the months of the
year
, in every division were twenty-four thousand...
And
David
got together at
Jerusalem
all the rulers of
Israel
, the chiefs of the tribes and the captains of the divisions waiting on the
king
in turn, and the captains of
thousands
and the captains of hundreds and the controllers of all the goods and property of the
king
and his sons, with the unsexed servants and the great men of
war
...
And
David
the
king
said to all the people, Solomon my son, the only one who has been marked out by
God
, is still young and untested, and the work is great, for this great
house
is not for
man
, but for the
Lord
God
...
