- 以色列眾人聚集到希伯崙見大衛、說、我們原是你的骨肉。
- 從前掃羅作王的時候、率領以色列人出入的是你.耶和華你的 神也曾應許你說、你必牧養我的民以色列、作以色列的君。
- 於是以色列的長老、都來到希伯崙見大衛王.大衛在希伯崙耶和華面前與他們立約.他們就膏大衛作以色列的王、是照耶和華藉撒母耳所說的話。
- 大衛和以色列眾人到了耶路撒冷、就是耶布斯.那時耶布斯人住在那裡。
- 耶布斯人對大衛說、你決不能進這地方。然而大衛攻取錫安的保障、就是大衛的城。

- Then all Israel gathered to David at Hebron and said, "Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
- "In times past, even when Saul was king, you were the one who led out and brought in Israel; and the LORD your God said to you, 'You shall shepherd My people Israel, and you shall be prince over My people Israel.'"
- So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD through Samuel.
- Then David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (that is, Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
- The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, "You shall not enter here." Nevertheless David captured the stronghold of Zion (that is, the city of David).
