David blir kung över hela Israel
11 Hela Israel samlades till David i Hebron och sade: "Vi är ju ditt eget kött och blod. 2 Redan för länge sedan, ännu medan Saul var kung, var det du som var ledare och anförare för Israel. Och till dig har Herren, din Gud, sagt: Du skall vara herde för mitt folk Israel, ja, du skall vara en furste över mitt folk Israel." 3 När alla de äldste i Israel kom till kungen i Hebron, slöt David ett förbund med dem i Hebron inför Herren. Sedan smorde de David till kung över Israel, enligt Herrens ord genom Samuel.
4 David begav sig med hela Israel till Jerusalem, det vill säga Jebus, och där bodde jebusiterna. 5 Invånarna i Jebus sade till David: "Här kommer du inte in." Men David intog Sions borg, det är nu Davids stad. 6 David sade: "Den som först slår jebusiterna, han skall bli överbefälhavare och överste." Joab, Serujas son, kom först upp, och han blev överbefälhavare. 7 David bosatte sig sedan i borgen och därför kallade man den Davids stad. 8 Han byggde staden runt om den, från Millo och vidare runt omkring, och Joab återställde det övriga av staden. 9 David blev allt mäktigare, och Herren Sebaot var med honom.
Davids hjältar
10 Dessa är de främsta bland Davids hjältar, som starkt stödde honom i hans rike tillsammans med hela Israel, så att man gjorde honom till kung över Israel enligt Herrens ord.
11 Detta är förteckningen på Davids hjältar: Jasobeam, son till en hakmonit, den främste bland kämparna, han som svängde sitt spjut över trehundra slagna på en gång. 12 Efter honom kom ahoaiten Eleasar, son till Dodo. Han var en av de tre hjältarna. 13 Han var med David vid Pas-Dammim, när filisteerna hade samlats där till strid. Där fanns en åker, full med korn, och folket flydde för filisteerna. 14 Då ställde de sig mitt på åkern och försvarade den och slog filisteerna, och Herren lät dem vinna en stor seger.
15 Tre av de trettio främsta männen gick ner över klippan till David vid Adullams grotta, medan en avdelning filisteer hade slagit läger i Refaimdalen. 16 David var då på borgen, och en filisteisk utpost fanns i Betlehem. 17 David sade längtansfullt: "Om ändå någon ville ge mig vatten att dricka från brunnen vid Betlehems stadsport!" 18 Då bröt de tre sig igenom filisteernas läger och hämtade vatten ur brunnen vid Betlehems stadsport och tog det och bar det till David. Men David ville inte dricka det utan hällde ut det som ett drickoffer åt Herren. 19 Han sade: "Må Gud låta det vara fjärran från mig att jag skulle göra detta! Skulle jag dricka dessa mäns blod? De har ju vågat sina liv, ja, med fara för sina liv har de burit hit det." Och han ville inte dricka det. Sådana bragder hade de tre hjältarna utfört.
20 Absaj, Joabs bror, var den främ- ste av tre andra. Han svängde en gång sitt spjut över trehundra slagna. Han hade ett stort namn bland de tre. 21 Han var dubbelt så mycket ansedd som någon annan i detta tretal, och han var deras befälhavare. Men upp till de tre första nådde han inte.
22 Vidare Benaja, son till Jojada, från Kabseel, var en tapper man och gjorde många stordåd. Han slog ner de två arielerna i Moab, och det var han som en snövädersdag steg ner och slog ihjäl lejonet i brunnen. 23 Han slog också ner den egyptiske mannen som var så storväxt: fem alnar lång. Fastän egyptiern i handen hade ett spjut som liknade en vävbom, gick han emot honom beväpnad endast med sin stav. Han ryckte spjutet ur egyptierns hand och dödade honom med hans eget spjut. 24 Sådana bragder hade Benaja, Jojadas son, utfört, och han hade ett stort namn bland de tre hjältarna. 25 Ja, han var mer ansedd än någon av de trettio, men upp till de tre första nådde han inte. David satte honom till anförare för sin livvakt.
26 De tappra hjältarna var: Asael, Joabs bror; Elhanan, Dodos son, från Betlehem; 27 haroriten Sammot; peloniten Heles; 28 tekoaiten Ira, Ickes son; anatotiten Abieser; 29 husatiten Sibbekaj; ahoaiten Ilaj; 30 netofatiten Mahraj; netofatiten Heled, Baanas son; 31 Itaj, Ribajs son, från Gibea i Benjamins barns stam; pirgatoniten Benaja; 32 Huraj från Gaas dalar; arabatiten Abiel; 33 baharumiten Asmavet; saalboniten Eljaba; 34 gisoniten Bene-Hasem; harariten Jonatan, Sages son; 35 harariten Ahiam, Sakars son; Elifal, Urs son; 36 mekeratiten Hefer; peloniten Ahia; 37 Hesro från Karmel; Naaraj, Esbais son; 38 Joel, bror till Natan; Mibhar, Hagris son; 39 ammoniten Selek; berotiten Nahraj, vapendragare åt Joab, Serujas son; 40 jeteriten Ira; jeteriten Gareb; 41 hetiten Uria; Sabad, Alajs son; 42 rubeniten Adina, Sisas son, en huvudman bland rubeniterna, och med honom trettio andra; 43 Hanan, Maakas son, och mitniten Josafat; 44 astarotiten Ussia; Sama och Jeguel, aroeriten Hotams söner; 45 Jediael, Simris son, och hans bror Joha, tisiten; 46 Eliel mahaviten samt Jeribaj och Josauja, Elnaams söner, och moabiten Jitma; 47 slutligen Eliel, Obed och Jaasiel mesobajiten.

David Becomes King Over Israel(A)
11 All Israel(B) came together to David at Hebron(C) and said, “We are your own flesh and blood. 2 In the past, even while Saul was king, you were the one who led Israel on their military campaigns.(D) And the Lord your God said to you, ‘You will shepherd(E) my people Israel, and you will become their ruler.(F)’”
3 When all the elders of Israel had come to King David at Hebron, he made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord, and they anointed(G) David king over Israel, as the Lord had promised through Samuel.
David Conquers Jerusalem(H)
4 David and all the Israelites marched to Jerusalem (that is, Jebus). The Jebusites(I) who lived there 5 said to David, “You will not get in here.” Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion—which is the City of David.
6 David had said, “Whoever leads the attack on the Jebusites will become commander in chief.” Joab(J) son of Zeruiah went up first, and so he received the command.
7 David then took up residence in the fortress, and so it was called the City of David. 8 He built up the city around it, from the terraces[a](K) to the surrounding wall, while Joab restored the rest of the city. 9 And David became more and more powerful,(L) because the Lord Almighty was with him.
David’s Mighty Warriors(M)
10 These were the chiefs of David’s mighty warriors—they, together with all Israel,(N) gave his kingship strong support to extend it over the whole land, as the Lord had promised(O)— 11 this is the list of David’s mighty warriors:(P)
Jashobeam,[b] a Hakmonite, was chief of the officers[c]; he raised his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed in one encounter.
12 Next to him was Eleazar son of Dodai the Ahohite, one of the three mighty warriors. 13 He was with David at Pas Dammim when the Philistines gathered there for battle. At a place where there was a field full of barley, the troops fled from the Philistines. 14 But they took their stand in the middle of the field. They defended it and struck the Philistines down, and the Lord brought about a great victory.(Q)
15 Three of the thirty chiefs came down to David to the rock at the cave of Adullam, while a band of Philistines was encamped in the Valley(R) of Rephaim. 16 At that time David was in the stronghold,(S) and the Philistine garrison was at Bethlehem. 17 David longed for water and said, “Oh, that someone would get me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!” 18 So the Three broke through the Philistine lines, drew water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem and carried it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured(T) it out to the Lord. 19 “God forbid that I should do this!” he said. “Should I drink the blood of these men who went at the risk of their lives?” Because they risked their lives to bring it back, David would not drink it.
Such were the exploits of the three mighty warriors.
20 Abishai(U) the brother of Joab was chief of the Three. He raised his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed, and so he became as famous as the Three. 21 He was doubly honored above the Three and became their commander, even though he was not included among them.
22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada, a valiant fighter from Kabzeel,(V) performed great exploits. He struck down Moab’s two mightiest warriors. He also went down into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion.(W) 23 And he struck down an Egyptian who was five cubits[d] tall. Although the Egyptian had a spear like a weaver’s rod(X) in his hand, Benaiah went against him with a club. He snatched the spear from the Egyptian’s hand and killed him with his own spear. 24 Such were the exploits of Benaiah son of Jehoiada; he too was as famous as the three mighty warriors. 25 He was held in greater honor than any of the Thirty, but he was not included among the Three. And David put him in charge of his bodyguard.

Elhanan son of Dodo from Bethlehem,

King James Version
11 Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.
2 And moreover in time past, even when Saul was king, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the Lord thy God said unto thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be ruler over my people Israel.
3 Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to 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 by Samuel.
4 And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.
5 And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come hither. Nevertheless David took the castle of Zion, which is the city of David.
6 And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. So Joab the son of Zeruiah went first up, and was chief.
7 And David dwelt in the castle; therefore they called it the city of David.
8 And he built the city round about, even from Millo round about: and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9 So David waxed greater and greater: for the Lord of hosts was with him.
10 These also are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who strengthened themselves with him in his kingdom, and with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the Lord concerning Israel.
11 And this is the number of the mighty men whom David had; Jashobeam, an Hachmonite, the chief of the captains: he lifted up his spear against three hundred slain by him at one time.
12 And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighties.
13 He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where was a parcel of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
14 And they set themselves in the midst of that parcel, and delivered it, and slew the Philistines; and the Lord saved them by a great deliverance.
15 Now three of the thirty captains went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the host of the Philistines encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
16 And David was then in the hold, and the Philistines' garrison was then at Bethlehem.
17 And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, that is at the gate!
18 And the three brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but David would not drink of it, but poured it out to the Lord.
19 And said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this thing: shall I drink the blood of these men that have put their lives in jeopardy? for with the jeopardy of their lives they brought it. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mightiest.
20 And Abishai the brother of Joab, he was chief of the three: for lifting up his spear against three hundred, he slew them, and had a name among the three.
21 Of the three, he was more honourable than the two; for he was their captain: howbeit he attained not to the first three.
22 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done many acts; he slew two lionlike men of Moab: also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in a snowy day.
23 And he slew an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high; and in the Egyptian's hand was a spear like a weaver's beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.
24 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name among the three mighties.
25 Behold, he was honourable among the thirty, but attained not to the first three: and David set him over his guard.
26 Also the valiant men of the armies were, Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
27 Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,
28 Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite, Abiezer the Antothite,
