The Reign of David

And David son of Jesse hath reigned over all Israel,

and the days that he hath reigned over Israel are forty years; in Hebron he reigned seven years, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three;

and he dieth in a good old age, satisfied with days, riches, and honour, and reign doth Solomon his son in his stead.

And the matters of David the king, the first and the last, lo, they are written beside the matters of Samuel the seer, and beside the matters of Nathan the prophet, and beside the matters of Gad the seer,

with all his reign, and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all kingdoms of the lands.
