2 Samuel 2:4-7

⁴Then the men of Judah came to Hebron, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, “It was the men of Jabesh-gilead who buried Saul.”

⁵So David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh-gilead to tell them, “The LORD bless you, because you showed this kindness to Saul your lord when you buried him.

⁶Now may the LORD show you loving devotion and faithfulness, and I will also show you the same favor because you have done this.

⁷Now then, be strong and courageous, for though Saul your lord is dead, the house of Judah has anointed me as their king.”
