All these men of war, who could keep ranks, came to Hebron with a loyal heart, to make David king over all Israel; and all the rest of Israel [were] of one mind to make David king.

So David reigned over all Israel; and David administered judgment and justice to all his people.

From following the ewes that had young He brought him, To shepherd Jacob His people, And Israel His inheritance.

So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart, And guided them by the skillfulness of his hands.

Righteousness and justice [are] the foundation of Your throne; Mercy and truth go before Your face.

Of the increase of [His] government and peace [There will be] no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

Behold, a king will reign in righteousness, And princes will rule with justice.

A man will be as a hiding place from the wind, And a cover from the tempest, As rivers of water in a dry place, As the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.

"Shall you reign because you enclose [yourself] in cedar? Did not your father eat and drink, And do justice and righteousness? Then [it was] well with him.

" Behold, [the] days are coming," says the LORD, "That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness; A King shall reign and prosper, And execute judgment and righteousness in the earth.

In His days Judah will be saved, And Israel will dwell safely; Now this [is] His name by which He will be called: THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

'In those days and at that time I will cause to grow up to David A Branch of righteousness; He shall execute judgment and righteousness in the earth.
