The Reign of David

Thus Dauid the sonne of Ishai reigned ouer all Israel.

And the space that he reigned ouer Israel, was fourtie yeere: seuen yeere reigned he in Hebron, and three and thirtie yeere reigned he in Ierusalem:

And he dyed in a good age, full of dayes, riches and honour, and Salomon his sonne reigned in his steade.

Concerning the actes of Dauid the King first and last, behold, they are written in the booke of Samuel the Seer, and in the booke of Nathan the Prophet, and in the booke of Gad the Seer,

With all his reigne and his power, and times that went ouer him, and ouer Israel and ouer all the kingdomes of the earth.
