David Anointed King over All Israel
11 (A)Then all Israel gathered to David at Hebron [a]and said, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh. 2 Previously, even when Saul was king, you were the one who led out and brought in Israel; and Yahweh your God said to you, ‘(B)You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be a ruler over My people Israel.’” 3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David cut a covenant with them in Hebron before Yahweh; then (C)they anointed David king over Israel, (D)according to the word of Yahweh through Samuel.

David is Anointed King(A)
11 Later on, all of Israel gathered together at Hebron in order to tell David, “Look, we’re your own flesh and blood![a] 2 Even back when Saul was ruling as king, you kept on leading the army of Israel out to battle[b] and bringing them in again.[c] The Lord your God told you, ‘You yourself will shepherd my people Israel and will be Commander-in-Chief[d] over my people Israel.’” 3 So all the elders of Israel approached the king at Hebron, where David entered into a covenant in[e] the presence of the Lord. Then they anointed David to be king over Israel, just as the Lord had sent word through[f] Samuel.
