All right, y'all, So here we go, let book a second

Samuel, chapter thirteen. And it came to pass after this that Absalom,

the son of David, had a fair sister whose name was Tamar. And

Aman, the son of David, loved her. And Aman was so vexed

that he fell sick for his sister Tamorrow, for she was a virgin.

And Aman thought it hard for him to do anything to her. But Aman

had a friend whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shamiyah, David's brother.

And jona Dad was a very subtle man. And he has said to

him, why art thou, being the king's son, leaned from day to

day? Wilt thou not tell me? And Aman said unto him, I

love Tamarrow, my brother absalom sister. And Jonadab said unto him, lay

thee down on thy bed and make thyself sick. And when thy father come

to see thee, saying to him, I pray thee, let my sister

mark come and give me meat and drusted meat in my sight, that I

may see it and eat it at her hand. So Aman laid down and

made himself sick, and when the king was to When the king was come

to see him, Aman said, un to the King, I pray he

let tomorrow my sister come and make me a couple of cakes in my sight,

that I may eat at her hand. At her hand. Then David

sent home Tamar, saying, go now to thy brother Aman's house and dress

him meat. So Tamarrow went to her brother Alman's house, and he was

laid down as she took flour and needed it, and made of cakes in

his sight. And did bake the cakes. And she took a pan and

poured them out before him, but he refused to eat. And Aman said,

have out all men from me, and they went out every man from

him. And Aman said to Tamarrow, bring the meat into the chamber,

that I may eat of thy hand. And Tamar took the case which she

had made and brought them into the chamber to Aman, her brother. And

when she had brought them into him to eat, he took hold of her

and said to her, come lay with me, my sister. As she

answered, nay, my brother, do not force me, for no such

thing ought to be done in Israel. Do not thou this folly? And

I wither I shall I cause my shame to go? And as for THEE,

thou shalt be as one of the fools of Israe. Now therefore I

pray THEE speak it to the king, for he would not withhold me from

thee. How about, howbeit he would not harken it to her voice,

But being stronger than she, forced her and lay with her. That Aman

hated her exceedingly, so that hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the

love wherewith he had her he had loved her. And a man said to

her, arrives be gone. As she said it to him, there is

no cause this evil, in sending me away, is greater than the other

that did us unto me. But he would not hearken unto her. Then

he called his servant that ministered to him, and said, putting out this

woman up for me, and bolt the door after her, as she had

a garment of divers colors upon her, for which such robes were the king's

daughters that were virgins. Appareled that his servant brought her out and bolted the

door after her, and Tomar put ashes on her head and rent her garment

of divers colors that was on her, and laid her hand on her head,

and went on crying. And abs On her brother said to her,

hath amand thy brother been with thee. But hold now thy peace, my

sister, he is thy brother, regard not this thing. So tomorrow remained

desolate in her brother's Absalom's house. But when the king went. But when

King David heard all these things, he was very wroth. And Absalom spoken

to us, brother Aman neither good nor bad. For Absalom hated Aman because

he had forced his sister tamarrow. And it came to pass after two full

years that Absalom had sheep shares and bail hus Hazer, which is beside Ephraim.

Absalom invited all the king's sons. And Absalom came to the king and

said, behold now, thy servant hath sheep shares. Let the king I

beseech THEE and his servants go with thy servant. And the king said to

Absalom, nay, my son, let us not, I'll go, lest

we be chargeable unto THEE. And he pressed him, howbeit he would not

go, but blessed him. Then Absalom then said Absalom, if not I

pray THEE, let my brother Aman go with us. And the king said

unto him, why should he go with thee? But Absalom pressed him that

he let Aman and all the king's sons go with him. Now, Absalom

had had commanded his servant, saying, marquis, now when Aman's heart is

married with wine, and when I say until you smite Ahman, then kill

him fear and not have not I commanded you be courageous and be valiant,

And the servants of Absalom did unto Amant as Absalom had commanded. Then all

the king's sons arose, and every man got up and took upon gat,

up upon his mule, and fled, and the cannon passed. While they

were in a way, that Tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath

slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.

Then the king arose and tear his garments and lay on the earth, and

all his services stood by with their clothes. Rent And Jonadab, the son

of Shamiah, David's brother, answered and said, let not my lord suppose

that they have slain all the young men and the king's sons. For Aman

only is dead, for by the appointment of Absalom. Thus this has been

determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar. Now therefore, let

not my lord the king take the thing to his heart to think that all

the king's sons are dead, for Aman only is dead. But Absalom fled

and the young men and the young men that kept the watch lifted up his

eyes and looked, and behold, there came much people by the way of

the hill side beside behind him. And Johonadab said, until the king behold

the king's sons, as thy servants said, so it is. And it

came to pass as soon as he had made an end of speaking that behold,

the king's sons came and lifted up their voice and webb, and the

king also and all his servants wept very sore. But Absalom fled and went

to Tamai. Tamai the son of Amhood, king of Gashir, and David

mourned for his son every day. So Absalom fled and went to Gasher and

was there three years. And the soul of King David longed to go forth

to Absalom, for he was comforted concerning Aman, seeing he was dead.

All right, So that's the book of Second Samuel, chapter thirteen, reading,

you know, a bit of some crazy, weird family issues there will

happen. And so that was Second Samuel chapter thirteen reading. Now we're gonna

go to Second sam chapter fourteen. Reading. All right, Second Samuel chapter

fourteen, here we go. Now, Joab, the son of Zaia,

perceived that the king's heart was toward Absalom. And joe Ab sent to Ticoa

and fetched dns a wise woman and said unto her, I pray thee,

feed thyself to be a mourner, and put on a mourning apparel, and

anointing not thyself with oil, but be as a woman that had a long

time mourn for the dead, and come to the king and speak on this

matter to him. So Joab put the words in her mouth. And when

the woman Thicoa spoke to the king, she fell on her face to the

ground and did obscene abience. Aba sensor said, help o King. And

the king said, unto her, what ilieth thee? What aileth thee?

As she answered, I am indeed a widow woman and my husband is dead.

And my handmaid had two sons, and they two strove together in the

field, and there was one none to part them, but the one smote

the other and slew him. And behold, the whole family has risen against

thine handmaid. And they said, deliver him that smote his brother, that

we may kill him for the life of his brother whom he slew. And

we will destroy the hair also their hair also, And so they shall quench

my coal which is left, and shall not leave to my husband neither name

nor remember, nor remainder upon the earth. And the king said, unto

the woman, go to thine house, and I will give charge concerning thee.

And the woman of Ticco said, unto the King, my lord,

O King, Then nigulity be on me and on my father's house, and

the king in his throne be guiltless. And the King said, whosoever saith

thee, bring him to me, and he shall not touch thee anymore.

Then said she I pray thee. Let the king remember the Lord, thy

God, that wouldest not suffer the revengers of blood to destroy anymore less they

destroy my son. And he said, as the Lord liveth there shall not

one hair of thy son fall to the earth. Then the woman said,

let thine handmaid, I pray thee speak one word to tell my lord the

King. And he said, say on. And the woman said, wherefore

then hast thou thought such a thing against the people of God? For the

king doth speak this thing as one which is faulty, and that the king

doth not fetch home again has banished, for we must needs die, and

are as water split on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again.

Neither doth doth God respect is respect of any persons. Yet does he devise

means that has banished be not expelled from him? Now therefore that I might

come that I now therefore that I am come to speak of this thing unto

my lord the King. It is because the people have made me afraid.

And thy handmaid said, I will now speak it to the King. It

may be that the King will perform the request of his handmaid, For the

King will here to deliver his handmaid out of the hand of the man that

would destroy me and my son together, out of the inheritance of God.

Then thine handmaid said, the word of my lord the King shall now be

comfortable. For as the Angel of God, so as my Lord the King

to discern good and bad. Therefore the Lord thy God will be with thee.

Then the king answered the son to the man, hide not from me.

I pray thee the thing that I shall ask thee. And the woman

said, let my lord the new Let my lord the King now speak.

And the King said, is not the hand of joe Ab with thee and

all this? And the woman answered the said, as thy soul liveth my

Lord the King. None can return, none can turn to the right hand

or to the left hand. From out that my Lord the King hath spoken

for thy servant joe Ab. He bade me, and he put all these

words in the mouth of thy handmaid to fetch about this form of speech.

Hath thy servant joe Abb done this thing, and my Lord's wives according to

the wisdom of an angel of God to know all things that are in the

earth. And the King said, unto joe Abb, behold, now I

have done this thing. Go there for bring the young man Absalom again.

And joe Ab fell to the ground his face and bowed himself and thanked the

king. And joe Ab said, today, thy servant knoweth that I have

found grace in thy sight, my Lord, O King, and that the

king hath fulfilled the request of his servant. So joe Ab arose and went

to Gasher and brought Absalom to Jerusalem. And the king said, let him

turn to his own house, and let him not see my face. So

Absalom returned to his own house and saw not the king's face. But in

all Israel there was none to be so much praise as Absalom for his beauty.

From the whole soul of his feet into the crown of his head,

there was no blemish in him. And when he pulled his head, for

it was at every years, and that he pauled it because the hair was

heavy on him. Therefore he paulled it. He weighed the hair of his

head at two hundred shekels. After the king's wait, and to Absalom there

were born three sons and one daughter, whose name was Tamar. She was

a woman of a fair countenance. So Absalom dwelt two full years in Jerusalem

and saw not the king's face. Therefore Absalom sent for joe Ab to have

sent him to the king, But he would not come to him, And

then when he sent again the second time, he would not come. Therefore

he said it to his servants, See, Joe absfield is near mind and

be half barley there go and set it on fire. And absalom servants set

the field on fire. Then Joe abb arose and came to Absalom at his

house and said it to him, wherefore have thy servants set my field on

fire? At Absalom answer Joe Ab, behold, I sent unto thee saying

come hither, that I may send thee to the king to say wherefore I

might come from Gasher. It had been good for me to have been there.

Still, Now for let me see the king's face, and if there

be any iniquity in me, let him kill me. So joe Ab came

to the king and told him. And when he had called for Absalom,

he came to the king and bowed himself on his face to the ground before

the king, and the king kissed Absalom. So that's a Book of Second

Samuel, chapter fourteen, reading. Now we're gonna go to the Book of

Second Samuel, chapter fifteen, reading All right, So here we go.

And it came to pass. After this that Absalom prepared him chariots and horses

and fifty men to run before him. And Absalom rose up early and stood

beside the way of the gate. And it was so that when any man

that had in controversy came to the King of for judgment, came to the

king for judgment, that Absalom called unto him and said, of what city

art thou? And he said, thy servant is of one of the tribes

of Israel. Absalom said, untell him, see thy matters are good and

right, but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.

Absalom said, moreover, oh, that I were made judge in the land,

that every man which hath any suit or kate or cause, might come

into me, and I would do him justice. And it was so that

when any man came nigh to him to do him a bee since Abu since

he put forth his hand and took him, and it kissed him. And

on the manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment.

So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel. And it came

to pass after forty years that Absalom said, unto the King, I pray

thee let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to to

the Lord in Hebron, for thy servant vowed to vow while I abode at

Gashir and Syria, saying, if the Lord shall bring me again, indeed

to Jerusalem, then I will serve the Lord excuse me. And the king

said, unto him, go in peace. So he arose and went to

Hebron. But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying,

as soon as ye hear the sound of the trumpet, then ye shall say

Absalom reigneth in Hebron. And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem

that were called, and they went in their simplicity, and they knew not

anything. And Absalom sent forth a Hithiphel, the gilon Kite, David's counselor,

from his city, even from Galore, while he offered sacrifices, and

the conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom. And there

came a messenger to David, saying, the hearts of the men of Israel

are after Absalom, and David said, unto all his servants that were with

him at Jerusalem, arrives, and let us flee, for we shall not

also escape from Absalom. Makes me to depart, lest he overtake us suddenly

and bring evil upon us and smite the city with the edge of the sword.

And the king's servants sent unto the king, behold, our servant are

ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall appoint. And the king went

forth at all and all his household after him. Oh, let me repeat

that again. And David said, unto all his servants that are with him

at Jerusalem, arise and let us flee, for we shall not also escape

from Absalom. Make speed to depart, lest he overtake us suddenly and bring

evil upon us and smite the city with the edge of the sword. And

the king's servant said, unto the king, behold, thy servants are ready

to do whatsoever my lord the king shall appoint. And the king went forth,

and all his household after him. And the king left ten women,

which were concubines, to keep the house. And the king went forth and

all the people after him, and tarried into place that was far off,

and all his servants passed on beside him, and all the Cherethites, and

all the Pelothites, and all the Goodteites. Six hundred men which came after

him from Gath passed on before the King. Then said the King to tie

the Goodteite. Wherefore goest thou also with us returned to thy place, and

abide with the king. For thou art a stranger and also in exile,

where as thou camest by yesterday, but yesterday should either day make thee go

up and down with us. Seeing I go with it, I may return

thou and take back thy brethren. Mercy and truth be with thee. And

then tie answered the King has said, as the Lord liveth, and as

my lord the King liveth Shirley, shirley, in what place, my Lord

the King shall be, whether in death or life, even there also will

thy servant be. And David said it to a tie, go and pass

over, and attie. The good type passed over, and all his men

and all the little ones that were with him, and all the country wept

with a loud voice, and all the people passed over. The King also

himself passed over the brook Caudron, and all the people passed over toward the

way of the wilderness and lows. The Doc also and all the levites were

with him, bearing the ark of the Covenant of God. And they set

down the Ark of God, and Abby Abiathar went up until all the people

had done passing out of the city. And the king said to the king

sentence, as a doc carried back the Ark of God into the city.

If I shall find favor in the eyes of the Lord, he will bring

me again and show me both it and his habitation. But if he thus

say I have no delight in thee behold there am I here hear my Let

him do to me as seemeth good unto him, the king said it also

unto the doctor priest, art not thou, Assir, return into the city

in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahims thy Son, I

hammaged thy son, and Jonathan, the son of Abiathar. See, I

will tarry in the plane of the wilderness, until there come word from you

to certify me so. Doc. Therefore Abiathar carried the Ark of God again

to Jerusalem, and they tarried there, and David went up by the ascent

of mount Olivet, and wept as he went up and had his head covered,

and he went barefoot, and all the people that was with him covered

every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up,

And every and one told David, saying, a Hittophel is among the

conspirators with Absalom. And David said, oh, Lord, I pray thee

turned to counsel of the fell into foolishness. And it came to pass that

when David was come to the top of the mountain where he worshiped God,

behold hush Hushai the Archid. The archid came to meet with him, that

came to meet him with his coat rent and earth upon his head, to

whom David said, if thou passest on with me, then thou shalt be

a burden and timmy. But if thou returned to the city, and saying

to Absalom, I will be thy servant, O King, as I have

been thy father's servant hitherto, so will I now also be thy servant.

Then mayest thou for meet defeat the counsel of a hithephil And hast thou not

there with thee Sadak and Abiathar the priest. Therefore it shall be that what

things soever thou shalt hear out of the King's house, thou shalt tell it

to Zadok and Abiathar the priest. Behold, they have there with them their

two sons, Ahamaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son. And

by them ye shall send it to me everything that ye can hear. So

Hashai, David's friend, came into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.

As a book of Second Reader, chapter fifteen, Second Samuel, chapter

fifteen, reading, Now we're gonna go to a book of Second Samuel,

chapter sixteen, reading, all right, Second Samuel, chapter sixteen, Here

we go, All right, Second Samuel, chapter sixteen. Here we go.

And when David was a little past the top of the hill, behold

Zibba, the servant of Mephish mefi Boschef, met him with a couple of

asses saddled, and upon them two hundred loaves of bread, and one hundred

bunches of raisins, and a hundred of summer fruits, and a bottle of

wine. And the king said to Ziba, what meanest thou by these?

And Ziba said, the asses be for the king's household to ride on,

and the bread and the summer fruit for the young men to eat, and

the wine that such as be faint in the wilderness may drink. Excuse me,

And the king said, and where is thy masters son? And Ziba

said, unto the king, behold he abideth at Jerusalem. For he said,

today shall the house of Israel restored me the kingdom of my father.

Then said the King to Ziba, Behold, thine are all that pertain to

Methabo Chef. And Zibba said, I humbly beseech thee that I may find

grace in thy sight, my lord, O King. And when King David

came to baharam Bahoum, behold, thence came out a man of the family

of the House of Saul, whose name was SHAMAI. Excuse me, SHAMAI,

the son of Gara. He came forth and cursed ill as he came,

and he castones at David and at all the servants of King David,

and all the people, and all the mighty men were on his right hand

and on his left. And thus said sham I, when he cursed,

come out, come out thy bloody man, and thou thou man of Belial.

The Lord Hath returned upon thee all the blood of the house of Saul,

and who stead thou hast reigned? And the Lord Hath delivered the kingdom

into the hand of Absalom, thy son. And behold thou art taken in

thy mischief, because thou art a bloody man. Then said Abishai, the

son of Zarea, to the king, why should this dead dog curse my

lord? The king? Let me go over, I pray thee and take

off his head. And the king said, what have I done? What

have I do too? With you, ye sons of Zaria. So let

him curse, because the Lord Hath said, unto him, curse David.

Who shall then say, wherefore hast thou done so? And David said to

Abershai and to all his servants, behold, my son was came forth of

my bow, seeketh my life. How much more may this beja might do

it? Let him alone and let him a curse, for the Lord Hath

hidden hath bidden him. It may be that the Lord will look on my

affliction, and that the Lord will require me good for his cursing. This

day and as David and his men went by the way, Shemai went along

on the hillside over against him and cursed as he went, and threw stones

at him and cast dust. And the king and all the people that were

with him came weary and refreshed themselves there. And Absalom and all the people

the men of Israel came to Jerusalem, and a hythe fell with him.

And it came to pass when Hashai, the archids David's, the Archid David's

friend, was come to Absalom. That Hashai said up to Absalom, God

save the king, God save the King. And Absalom said to Hashai,

is thy kindness to thy friend? Why wouldest thou not with thy friend?

And Hashai said, unto Absalom, nay. But whom the Lord and this

people and all the men of Israel choose his will I be and with him

I abide? And again, whom should I serve? Should I not serve

in the presence of his son? As I have served in thy father's presence,

So will I be in thy presence? Then said Absalom to a Hithiphil

give counsel among you what we shall do. And a Hithiphil said, unto

Absalom, go into my father's concubines, which he hath left to keep the

house. And all Israel shall hear that thou art abhorred of thy father.

Then shall the hands of all that are with thee be strong. So they

spread absalom attempt upon the top of the house, and Absalom went unto his

father's concubines in the sight of all Israel. And the counsel of a Hithiphol,

a hithephile, which he counseled in all those days, was as if

a man had inquired at the oracle of God. So was all the hussel

of a Hitherophil, both with David and with Absalom. So that's the book

of Second Samuel, chapter sixteen. Reading. Now we're gonna get to a

book of Second Samuel, chapter seventeen. Reading all right, Second Samuel,

chapter seventeen. Here we go. Moreover, a Hithophel set up to Absolom.

Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will rise and

pursue after David this night, and I will come upon him while he is

weary and weakended, and will make him afraid and all the people that are

with him shall fleet, and I will smite the king only, and I

will bring back all the people's, all the people to thee the man whom

thou seekust is as if all returned, so all the people shall be in

peace. And the saying pleased Absolom. Well, and all the elders of

Israel. Then said Absolom, calling now Hashai the archide also, and let

us hear likewise what he said. And when Hashai was come to Absolom,

Absolom spoken to him, saying, a hithefel hath spoken after this manner,

shall we go after? Shall we do after? Is saying, if not

speak thou. And Hashai said to Absalom the counsel that a hiffl hath given

us not a good? Is not good? At this time? First said

Hashai, thou knowest thy father and his men, that they be mighty men,

and they be chaffed, chafed in their minds, as as a bear

robbed of her whelps in the field. And thy father is a man of

war and will not lodge with the people. Behold, he is hidden now

in some pit or in some other place, and it will come to pass

when some of them be overthrown at the first, that whosoever heareth it will

say there is a slaughter among the people that follow Absalom. And he also

that is valiant, whose heart is at the heart of a lion, shall

utterly melt. For all Israel knows that thy father is a mighty man,

and they which and they which be with him are valiant men. Therefore I

counsel that all Israel be generally gathered un to thee from dawn, even to

Beersheba as the sam that is by the sea for multitude, and that thou

go to battle and thy own person. So shall we come upon him in

some place where he shall be found, and we will light upon him as

the dow falleth on the ground, and of him, of all the men

that are with him, there shall not be left so much as one.

Moreover, if he if he be gotten into a city, then shall Israel

bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the river until

there be not one small stone found there. And Absalom and all the men

of Israel, said the council of Hashai, the Archid, is better than

the council of a Hithiphel, for the Lord had appointed to defeat the good

council of a Hitheriphel, to the intent that the Lord might bring upon me,

might bring evil upon Absalom. Then said Hashi unto Zadok and to Abiathar

the priest. Thus and thus did a Hithiphel council Absalom and the elders of

Israel. And thus and thus have I counseled. Now therefore said quickly and

tell David, saying lodge not this night and the plans of the wilderness,

but speedily passed over, lest the king be swallowed up, and all the

people that are with him. Now Jonathan and Ahamas Ahama stayed by en rogel

and rogel, for they might not be seen to come into the city.

And a wench went and told them, and they went and told King David.

Nevertheless, a lad saw them and told Absalom. But they went both

of them away quickly, and came to a man's house in Baharum Baharum,

which had a well in his court. With her, they went down,

and the woman took and spread a covering over the well's mouth, and spread

ground corn there arm And the thing was not known And when Absalom servants came

to the woman to the house, they said, where is Ahamas and Jonathan?

And the woman said it to them. They be gone over the brook

of water. And when they had sought and could not find them, they

returned to Jerusalem. And it came to pass after they were departed, that

they came up out of the well and went and told King David instead of

to David arrive and passed quickly over the water. For thus hath Hitherapel counseled

against you. Then David arose and all the people that were with him,

and they passed over Jordan by the morning light their lack. Not one of

them that was not gone over Jordan. And when a Hitherfel saw that his

counsel was not followed, he saddled, He saddled his ass arose and got

and got home, got him home to his house, to his city,

and put his household in order, and hanged himself and died and was buried

in his suppulture supportray of his father. Then David came to Maha Mahanaim,

and Absolom passed over Jordan. He and all the men of Israel with him,

and Absolom made amassa captain of the host instead of joe Ab, which

Amasa was a man's son whose name was Ithra, and Israelite that went into

Abigail, the daughter of Naha, sister to Zariah, joe AB's mother.

So Israel and Absalon pitched in the land of Galid, and it came to

pass when David was come to Mahanium. Shabbai Shobi the son of Nahash of

Rabba, Rabbah of the children of Amman, and Masure, the son of

Amiel of Labite Ladebar and Barzilay Barzilai, the Galdite of Rogalim Rojalem brought beds

and basins and earthen vessels, and wheat and barley and flour, and parched

corn and beans and lentiles, and parched pulse and honey and butter and sheep

and cheese of kind for David and for the people that were with him to

eat, for they said, the people is hungry and weary and thirsty in

the wilderness. All right, So sorry, if I missed pronounced one of

those names, I'll correct me. It's all love. So there you have

it. That's the book of Second Samuel, chapter seventeen, reading all right,

Now we're gonna go to the book of second chapter eighteen, reading all

right, the Book of Second Samuel, chapter eighteen. Here we go.

And David numbered the people that were with him, and said, captains of

thousands and captains of hundreds over them. And David sent forth the third part

of the people under the head under the hand of joe Abb, and the

third part under the hand of Abushei, the son of Zaria, joe AB's

brother, and a third part under the hand of Attie, the good Tights.

And the King said, until the people, I will surely go forth

with you myself also. But the people answered, thou shalt not go forth,

for if we flee away, they will not care for us. Neither

if half of us die, will they care for us. But now thou

art, But now thou art worth ten thousand of us. Therefore, now

it is better that thou support us out of the city. And the King

said, unto them, what seemeth you best, I will do. And

the king stood by the gate side, and all the people came out,

by hundreds and by thousands. And the king commanded joe Abb and Abashai and

at Taie, saying, deal gently for my sake with the young man,

even with Absalom. And all the people heard when the king gave all the

captives charge concerning Absalom. So the people went out into the field against Israel.

And the battle was in the wood of Ephraim, where the people of

Israel who were slain before the servants of David. And there was there a

great slaughter that day of twenty thousand men. For the battle was there scattered

over the face of all the country. And the wood devoured more people that

day than the sword devoured. And Absalom at the servants of David. Absolom

rode upon a mule, and the mule went under the thick bows of a

great oak, and his head caught hold of the oak, hold of the

oak, and he was taken up between the heaven and the earth. And

the mule that was under him went away. And a certain man saw it

and told Joe Abbat said, behold, I saw Absalom hanged in an oak.

And Joe absided to the men that hold him, and behold thou sawest

him, And why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? And

I would have given the ten shekels of silver and a girdle and the master

hunt to joe Ab, though I should receive a thousand shukeles of silver in

my hand, Yet would I not put forth my hand against the King's son?

For an hour hearing the king charged thee and Abushei and Attai, saying,

beware that none touched the young man Absalom. Otherwise I should have route

falsehood against my own life, for there is no matter hid from the king,

and dow thyself. Wouldst have set thyself against me? Then said joe

Abb, I may not tearry thus with thee. And he took three darts

in his hand and thrust them through the heart of Absalom while he was yet

alive in the midst of the oak, and ten young men that bear joe

AB's armor compassed about and smote Absalom and slew him, and joe Ab blew

the trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing after Israel. For Joab held

back the people, and they took Absalom accostment to a great pit in the

wood, and laid a very great heap of owns upon him, and all

Israel fled. Everyone to his tent. Now Absalom in his lifetime, had

taken and reared up for himself a pillar which is in the kingsdale. For

he said, I have no son to keep my name. And remember say

he called the pillar after his own name, and it is called until this

day Absalom's place. Then said Ahamas, Ahmas, the son of Zadok,

Let me now run and bear the king titans. How that the Lord hath

avenged him of his enemies. And joe Ab said, unto him, thou

shalt not bear tidis this day, but thou shalt bear tidies another day.

But this day thou shalt bear no titans, because the King's son is dead.

Then said joe Ab to Kashai, to Kushi, to Kashi, Kaushi,

go tell the king what thou hast seen. And Kaushi bowed himself to

joe Ab and ran. Then said Ahmas, the son of Zadak, Yet

again to Joab, but howsoever, let me I pray. Thee also run

after Kaushi, And joe Ab said, wherefore with thou run my son,

seeing that thou hast no tidings ready. But howsoever, said he let me

run, And he said it to him run. Then Ahamas ran by the

way of the plane and overran Kashi, and David sat between the two gates,

and the watchman went up to the roof over the gate and to the

wall, and lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold a man running

alone. And the watchman cried and told the king, and the king said,

if he'd be alone, there is tidings in his mouth. And he

came a pace and drew near, and the watchman saw another man running,

And the watchman called it to the porter and said, behold another man running

alone. And the king said, he also bring the tidings. And the

watchman said, me think it the running of Foremost is like the running of

Ahamas, the son of Zadok. And the king said, he is a

good man and cometh with good tidings. And Ahamas called and said it to

the king all as well, and he fell down to the earth upon his

face before the king had said, blessed be the Lord, thy God,

which had delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the

king. And the king said, is the young man Absolom safe? And

Ahamas answered, when joe Ab sent the king's servant, and me, thy

servant, I saw a great tumult, but I knew not what it was.

And the King said, unto him, turn aside and stand here.

And he turned aside and stood still. And behold, because she came and

cush said, tidings, my Lord the King, for the Lord hath avenged

THEE this day, of all them that rose up against THEE. And the

King said it to Kaushi, as the young man Absolum safe. And because

she answered, the enemies of my lord the King, and all that rise

against THEE, to do THEE hurt be as that young man is. And

the King was much moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate

and wept. And as he went thus he said, oh, my son,

Absolom, my son, my son, Absalom, would God I had

died for THEE, Oh, Absolom, my son, my son. So

that's the Book of Second Samuel, chapter eighteen, reading all right this way,

David this morning, and weeping all right over Absalom. So now we're

going to go into the book of second Second Samuel, chapter nineteen. All

right, the Book of Second Samuel, chapter nineteen, here we go.

And it was told Joe ab behold, the king weepeth and mourneth for Absalom,

and the victory that day was turned into mourning until all the people.

For the people heard say that day how the king was greed for a son,

and the people got them by stealth that day into the city, as

people being ashamed still away when they flee in battle, But the king covered

his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, Oh, my

son, Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son. And Joab

came into the house of the king and said, thou hast shamed has shamed

this day the faces of all thy servants, which this day hath saved thy

life, and the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the

lives of thy wives, and the lives of thy concubines. And that thou

lovest thine enemy and hatest thy friends. For thou hast declared this day that

thou regardest neither princess nor servants. For this day I perceived that if Absalom

had lived, and all we had died this day, then it had pleased

thee. Well. Now therefore arrives, go forth and speak comfortably until thy

servants for I swear by the Lord. If thou go not forth, there

will not tarry one with thee this night, And that would be worse until

THEE than all the evil that befell THEE from thy youth. Until now then

the King of rose and sat in the gate, and they told until all

the people, saying, behold, the king doth sit in the gate.

And all the people came before the king, for Israel had fled, every

man to his tent, and all the people were at strife throughout all the

tribes of Israel, saying, the King saved us out of the land,

out of the hand of our enemies, and he deliveredest out of the hand

of the Philistines. And now he has fled out of the land for Absalom,

Absalom, whom we appointed over us, is dead in battle. Now,

therefore, why speak ye not a word of bringing the king back?

And King David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar. Excuse me, the priest,

saying, speaker to the eldest of Judah, saying, why are ye

the last to bring the king back to his house? Seeing the speech of

all Israel is coming to the king, even to his house. Ye are

my brethren, Ye are my bones and my flesh. Wherefore then are ye

the last to bring back the king at say ye to a massa, art

thou not of my bone and of my flesh? God, do so to

me? And more also, if thou be not captain of the host before

me continually in the room of Joab, and he bowed the heart of all

the men of Judah, even as a heart of one man, so that

they sent this word unto the king, or turned thou and all thy servants.

So the king returned and king to Jordan at Judah came to de Gal

to go to meet the king to conduct the king over Jordan. As shamai

shami Ya Shami the son of Ghara, a Benjamite which was of Bhurum,

hasted and came down with the men of Judah to meet King David. And

there were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Zebra, the servant

of the House of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with

him, and they went over Jordan before the king. And there went over

a ferry boat to carry over the king's household, as to do what he

thought good and Shami, the son of Ghara, fell down before the King

as he was come over Jordan, and said it to the King, let

not my lord impute iniquity unto me. Neither do thou remember that which thy

servant did. Perversely the day that my lord the King went out of Jerusalem,

that the King should take it to his heart, for thy servant doth

know that I have ended send. Therefore behold, I am come first.

I am come the first this day of all the house of Joseph, to

go down to meet my lord and king meet the door to meet my lord

the King. But Abishai, the son of Zariah, answered and said,

shall not Shami be put to death for this? Because he cursed the Lord's

anointed? And David said, what have I to do with you, ye

sons of Zaria Zaria, that ye should this day be adversaries? And to

me? Shall there any man be put to death this day in Israel?

For do not I know that I am this day king over Israel. Therefore

the King said, um to Shimi, thou shalt not die, And the

king swore to him, and Mafi Bullshef, the son of Saul, came

down to meet the king. And had neither dressed his feet, nor trimmed

his beard, nor washed his close from the day the King departed until the

day he came again at peace. And it came to pass when he was

come to Jerusalem to meet with the King, to meet the King, that

the King said to him, wherefore whennest not thou with me, MEFI bushev

And he answered, my lord, O King, my servant deceived me for

thy service, said I will saddle me, and asked that I may ride

thereon and go to the king, because thy servant is lame. And he

hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the King. But my Lord the King

is an angel of God. Do therefore what is good in thy eyes?

Let me just repeat that again. And he hath slandered thy servant until my

Lord the King, But my Lord the King is an angel of God,

Do therefore what is good in thine eyes? For all of my father's house

were but dead men before my lord the King. Yet didst thou set thy

servant among them that did eat at thy own table? What right therefore have

I yet to cry? And more unto the king. And the king said

unto him, why speakest thou anymore of thy matters. I have said,

thou Ziba, divide the land and meThe Bolshet said, unto the king,

yet let him take awe, for as much as my lord the king is

come again in peace unto his own house. And Barzilai, Barzil Barzilai,

the Gileadite, the Giludite, came down from Rogelim and went over Jordan with

the King to conduct him over Jordan. Now Barzilai was a very aged man,

even fourscore years old, and he had provided the king of sustenance while

he lay at Mahanium, for he was a very great man. And the

King said, unto Barzilai, come thou over with me, and I will

feed thee with me and Jerusalem. And Barzilie said, unto the King,

how long have I to live that I should go up with the King into

Jerusalem? I am to stay fourscore years old? And can I discern between

good and evil? Can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink?

Can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women?

Wherefore then should my thy servant be yet a burden unto my Lord the King,

thy servant will go a little away over Jordan with the King. And

why should the king recompense it me with such to reward. Let thy servant,

I pray thee turn back again, that I may die in my own

city and be buried by the grave of my father and of my mother.

But behold, thy servant, Shesham, Shimham, let him go over with

my lord the King, and do to him what shall seem good unto thee.

Excuse me, And the King answered, Simham, shall go over with

me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good unto THEE.

And whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that I will do for thee.

And all the people went over Jordan. And when the king was come

over, the King kissed Barzilai and blessed him, and he returned unto his

own place. Then the king went on to Gilgal, and Shimham went on

with him, and all the people of Judah conducted the king, and also

half the people of Israel. And behold, all the men of Israel came

to the king and said it to the King, why have our brethren,

the men of Judah, stolen thee away? And have brought the king and

his household and all the day and all David's men with him over Jordan.

And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, because the king

is near of kin to us. Wherefore then be ye angry for this matter?

Have we eaten at all of the King's cost? Or hath he given

us any gift? And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah and

said, we have ten parts in the king, and we have also more

right in David than ye. Why than did ye despise us that our advice

should not be first had in bringing back our king. And the words of

the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.

So that's the Book of Second sau chapter nineteen, reading. Now we're gonna

get to the Book of Second Samuel, chapter twenty reading. All right,

the Book of Second Samuel, chapter twenty. Here we go, And there

happened to be there a man of Beliel whose name was Sheba, the son

of Bishri, a Benjamite. And he blew a trumpet and said, we

have no part in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse.

Every man to his tends, oh Israel. So every man of Israel

went up from after David, and followed Sheba, the son of Bashri,

of Beatri Bitri Bhri. But the men of Judah clave until their king from

Jordan, even to Jerusalem. And David came to his house at Jerusalem,

and and the king took the ten women his concubines, to whom he had

left to keep the house, and put them in ward in word, and

fed them, but went not into them. So they were so they were

shut up until the day of their death, living in the widowhood. That

said the king to Amassa, assembled me the men of Judah within three days,

and be thou here at present. So Amasa went to assemble the men

of Judah. But he carried longer than the said time when he had appointed

him. And David said to Abashei, now Shashiba, the son of Batri

Bish, do us more harm than did Absalom. Take thou thy lord's servants,

and pursue after him, lest he get him fenced cities and escape us.

And there went out after him Joe Absmen, and the Chirethites, and

the Pilothites, and all the mighty men, and they went out of Jerusalem

to pursue after Sheba, the son of but Shrib. When they were at

the Great Stone, which is in Gibbeon, Amasa went before them, and

joe AB's garment that he had put on was girded unto him, and upon

it a girdle with a sword fastened upon his loins, and the sheath thereof,

And as he went forth it fell out, and joe Ab said to

Amasa, art thou in health, my brother. And joe Ab took a

Massa by the beard with the right hand to kiss him, and Amassa took

no heed to the sword that was in joe AB's hand, so he smote

him therewith in the fifth rib, and shut out his bows to the ground,

and struck him not again, and he died. So joe Abbasha his

brother, pursued after Sheba, the son of Bashrid. And one of joe

AB's men stood by him and said, he that favored joe Ab, and

he that is for David, let him go after joe Ab. And Amasa

wallowed in blood in the midst of all of the highway. And when the

man saw that, all the people stood still he removed Amassa out of the

highway into the field and cast a cloth upon him. When he saw that

everyone came by. Everyone that came by him stood still. When he was

removed out of the highway, all the people went on after joe Ab to

pursue after Shiba, the son of Bashi. And he went through all the

tribes of Israel, to Abel and to Beth Mayaka Mayacha, and all the

Brits, and they were gathered together and went also after him. And they

came and besieged him in a belle of Beth Mayaka Mayacha Mayaka. And they

cast up a bank against the city, and it stood in the trench,

and all the people that were with joe Ab batted the wall to throw it

down. Then cried a wise woman out of the city. Here's here say.

I prayed to joe Ab, come near hither, that I may speak

with thee. And when he was come near to unto her, the woman

said, art thou joe Ab, And he answered, I am he And

she said, unto him, hear the words of thy handmaid. And he

answered, I do hear that she spake, saying they were they were wont

to speak in old time, saying, they shall surely ask counsel at Abell.

And so they endured. They ended the matter, I am one of

them that are peaceable and faithful in Israel. Thou seekest to destroy a city

and a mother in Israel, Why wilt thou swallow up the inheritance of the

Lord? And joe Ab answered and said, far be it, far beef,

Far be it from me that I should swallow up or destroy. The

matter is not so, but a man out of Mount Ephraim, the son

of a tree, buta shri by name Hath lifted up his hand against the

king, even against David, delivered him only, and I would depart from

the city. And the woman said it to Joab, behold, his head

shall be thrown to over the wall. His head shall be thrown to thee

over the wall. Then the woman went unto all the people in her wisdom,

and they cut off the head of Sheba, the son of Bashrib,

and cast it out to Joab. And he blew a trumpet, and they

and they retired from the city. Every man to his tent retreat from the

city. And Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king. Now Joab now Joab

was over all the hosts of Israel, and Baniya Banaya, the son of

Johaidia Joe my bad, bear with me, all the son of jehol Jehoaida

was over the Jarothites and over the Pilothites. And ad Aram was over the

tribute. And Jehoshaphat the son of Hilud was recorder, as Shiva was scribe,

and Zadok and Abiathar where the priest at Ira also the jar right was

a chief ruler about David. All right, So that's the book of Second

Samuel, chapter twenty reading. Bear with me if I don't pronounce those names

right, all right, got to get it together with the pronunciation. We'll

have you in the correction and edification. But I'll take it, all right.

So that is the book of Second Samuel, chapter twenty reading. All

right. Now we're gonna get to the Book of Second Samuel, chapter twenty

one reading. All right, Second Samuel, chapter twenty one, Here we

go. Then there was a famine in the days of David, three years

year after year, and David acquired the lord, and the Lord answered,

it is for Saul and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibbeon

knights, and the king called the Gibbeon knights and sent it to them.

Now, the gibbey knights were not of the children of Israel, but of

the remnant of the emir rights, and the children of Israel had sworn it

of them in Saul sought to slay them in his zeal to the children of

Israel and Judah. Wherefore David said, up to the Gibeon knights, what

shall I do for you? And wherewire shall I make the atonement that ye

may bless the inheritance of the Lord. And the gibbeon a knight said unto

him, we will have no silver nor gold of Saul nor of his house,

neither for us shalt thou kill any man in Israel. And he said,

what ye shall say that I will do for you? And they answered

the King, the man that consumed us and that devised against us, that

we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the coast of Israel. Let

seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them

up until the Lord and gibbea of Saul, whom the Lord did choose.

And the King said, I will give them but the King spared Methidbuschef,

the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, because of the Lord's oath

that was between them between David and Jonathan the son of Saul. But the

King took the two sons of Rispa, the daughter of a Lot of Aya,

Aya, whom she bared to Saul Harmony and Metha Buschef, and the

five sons of McCall, the daughter of Saul, whom she brought up after

Adriel, the son of Barzilai, the Mahilathite. And he delivered them into

the hands of the gibbeon knights, and they hanged them in the hill before

the Lord, and they fell, all seven together and were put to death

in the days of harvest in the first days in the beginning of barley harvest,

and Rispa, the daughter of Aiah, took sat cloth sat cloth and

spread it for her upon the rock from the beginning of harvest until water dropped

upon them out of heaven, and suffered neither the birds of the air to

rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.

And it was told David what Rispa, the daughter of Aya, the concubine

of Saul had done. And David went and took the bones of Saul and

the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabish Gold, which had

stolen them from the street of beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them

when the Philistines had slain Salt and Gilboa. And he brought up from thence

the bones of Salt and the bones of Jonathan his son. And they gathered

the bones of them that were hanged, and the bones of Salt, and

Jonathan his son buried day in the country of Benjamin and Zilah and the suppultry

of Kirsha's father, and they performed all that the king commanded. And after

that God was entreated for the land, entreated for the land. Moreover,

the Philistines had yet wore again with Israel, and David went down and his

servants with him and fought against the Philistines. And David waxed faint and ishbi

Banab, which was which was of the sons of the Giant, the weight

of whose spear weighed three hundred shukeles of brass. And wait he being girded

with a new sword, thought to have slain David. But Abashaila, son

of Zarias, support him and smoked the Philistine and killed him. Then the

men of Davis swarren to him, saying, thou shalt go no more out

without us, without us to battle. That thou quenched out the light of

Israel. And it canter passed after this that there was again a battle with

the Philistines at gob at gob. Then sab Sabikai the Hushathite slew saf which

was of the sons of the Giant. And there was again a battle in

Gobe with the Philistines, where el Hanan, the son of gyre oregem Bethlamite,

slew the brother of Goliath the Getite, the staff of whose spear was

like a weaver's beam. And and there was yet a battle in Gath,

where it was a man of gray stature. And there was yet a battle

in Gath, where it was a man of great sta that stood, that

had on every hand end every hand six fingers and every foot six toes four

and twenty four in number. And he also was born to the Giant.

And when he defied, when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of shim

Shamia the brother of David slew him. These four were born to the Giant

and gath Nfel by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.

All right. So that's the Book of Second Samuel, chapter twenty one.

Reading. So this discuss is more a war, and how David kind

of went out a war by himself and he fainted. So the Israeites was

charging him, telling him to not go out to war by yourself. All

right, unique soldiers, you need people to go to war with you,

all right. So that's the book of Second Samud, chapter twenty one.

Now we're gonna get to the book of Second Samuel, chapter twenty two.

All right, the Book of Second Samue, chapter twenty two. Here we

go, all right, Second Samuel, chapter twenty two. Here we go.

And David spoken to the Lord the words of this song in the day

that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies and

out of the hand of Saul. And he said, the Lord is my

rock and my fortress, and my deliverer, the God of my rock,

and him I will trust. He is my shield and the horn of my

salvation, my high tower, and my refuge. My Savior, Thou savest

me from violence. I will call him the Lord who is worthy to be

praised. So shall I be saved from my enemies. When the waves of

deathcompassed me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. The sorrows of

hell come past me, But the snares of death prevented me. Hey,

Hey, Now, in my distress, I called upon the Lord and cried

to my God. And he did hear my voice out of his temple,

and my cry did enter into his ears. Then the earth shook and trembled,

the foundations of heaven moved and shook. Because he was wroth. There

went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth.

Devoured coals were kindled by it. He bowed the heavens also and came

down, and darkness was under his feet, and he rode upon a cherub

and did fly, and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.

And he made darkness pap pavilions round about him, dark waters and thick clouds

of the skies. Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.

The Lord thundered from heaven, and the most high uttered his voice, and

he sent out arrows and scattered them, lightning and discomfort at them, and

the channels of the sea appeared. The foundation of the world were discovered at

the rebuking of the Lord, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.

I just want to repeat that so beautiful. The Lord thundered from heaven,

and the most High uttered his voice, and he sent out arrows and

scattered them, lightning and discomforted them, and the channels of the sea appeared.

The found dations of the world were discovered at the rebuking of the Lord,

at the blast of the breath of his nostrils, he sent from above.

He took me. He drew me out of many waters. He delivered

me from my strong enemy and from them that hated me, for they were

too strong for me. They prevented me in the day of my calamity.

But the Lord was my stay. He brought me forth also into a large

place. He delivered me because he delighted in me. The Lord rewarded me

according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands. Hath he

recompensed me, for I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have

not wickedly departed from my God. For all his judgments were before me,

and as for his statues, I did not depart from them. I was

also upright before him, and have kept myself from iniquity, from my iniquity.

Therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to my

cleanness, and his eyesight. With the merciful, thou wilt show thyself merciful,

and what the upright man, thou will show thyself upright. With the

pure, thou wilt show thyself pure, And with the forward Thou will show

thyself a savory And the afflicted people thou will save. But thy eyes are

upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down. For thou art my

lamp, o Lord, and the Lord will lighten my darkness. For by

thee I have run through a troop. By my God have I leaped over

a wall. As for God, his way is perfect. The word of

the Lord has tried. He is a buckler to all them that trust in

him. For who is God? Save the Lord, who is a rock?

Save our God. For God is my strength and power. And he

maketh my way perfect. He maketh my feet like hen's feet, and setteth

me upon high places. He teacheth my hands to war, so that a

bow of still is broken by my arms. Thou hast also given me the

shield of thy salvation and thy gentleness. Hath met man, hath made me

great. Thou has enlarged my steps under me, so that my feet and

I slip. I have pursued my enemies and destroyed them, and turned not

again until I had consumed them. And I have consumed them and wounded them,

that they could not arise. Yeah, they are fallen under my feet.

For thou hast girded me with strength to battle them that rose up against

me. Hast thou subdued under me. Thou hast also given me the necks

of my enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me. They looked,

but there was none to save, even unto the Lord. But he

answered them. Not then did I beat them as small as the dust of

the earth. I didstamped them as amyer of the street, and did spread

them abroad. Thou also has delivered me from the strivings of my people.

Thou hast kept me to behead of the heathen of people which I knew,

which I knew not shall serve me. Strangers shall submit themselves and to me.

As soon as they hear they shall be obedient to me. Strangers shall

fade away, and they shall be afraid out of the closed places. The

Lord liveth and blessed be my rock, and exalted be the God of the

rock of my salvation. It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth

down the people under me, and that bringeth me forth from my enemies.

Thou also has lifted me up on a high above them that rose up against

me. Thou hast delivered me from the violent man. Therefore I will give

thanks to the old Lord among the heathen, and I will sing praises to

thy name. He is a tower of salvation for his king, and showeth

mercy to his anointed, to David and to the sea forevermore. Yes,

a man, that's beautiful. It's a beautiful song right there from David or

David could go many David, David could sing, dance, got bars,

could praise poet all that that was Second Samuel twenty two. And I was

very beautiful, you know, Davis. You know David made a song to

the Lord. You know that's very beautiful Second Salmon twenty two. Y'all should

reread that. I'm gonna start reading that from nine on. All right,

So that's the song. David had a song after the Lord had to live

him out of the hand of all his enemies, you know, out of

the hand of Saul. So David had a song to sing. Amen.

When God delivers us from something, God brought us out through something, all

we could do is rejoice, give him glory, and sing a song to

him. Amen. Yes, yes, we all have a testimony. We

all have a song to sing. Amen. So the Lord is definitely a

deliverer. Amen. Now we're gonna go into a book of Second Samuel,

chapter twenty three. All right, Second Samuel twenty three. Here we go.

Now these be the last words of David. David, the son of

Jesse, said, and the man who was raised up on high, the

anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet songist of Israel, said,

the spirit of the Lord spoke by me, and his word was in

my tongue. The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spoke to

me. He that ruleth overmen must be just, ruling in the fear of

God. And he shall be as the light of the morning when the sun

riseth, even the morning without clouds, as to tend the grass springing out

of the earth by clear shining after rain. Although my house being not so

with God, yet he hath made me with an everlasting covenant, ordered in

all things and sure. For this is all my salvation and all my desire.

Although he make it not grow. Hold on, I want to read.

I want to repeat that, although my house being not so with God,

yet he hath made me with an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things

and sure, for this is all my salvation and all my desire, although

he make it not to grow. But the suns of belial shall be,

all of them as thorn starts away, because they cannot be taken with hands.

But the man that shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the

staff of a spirit, and they shall be utterly burned with fire. In

the same place, these be the names of the mighty men whom David had

the Tashman knight that sat in the seat chief among the captains. The same

was Adino, that as knight he lift up his spear against eight hundred whom

he slew at one time and after him was Elizar Elazar, the son of

Da do Dud the aha Heit, one of the three Mighty men with David

when they defied the Philistines that were gathered together the battle and the men of

Israel were gone away, he arose and smoked the Philistines until his hand was

weary. Excuse me, all my bat, Let me read that he arose

and smoked the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave until

the sword, and the Lord wrought a great victory that day, and the

people returned after him only to spoil. And after him was Shamah, the

son of Aghi the how Right, and the Philistines were gathered together into a

troop where it was a piece of ground full of lentiles, and the people

fled from the Philistines. But he stood in the midst of the ground and

defended it and slew the Philistines, and the Lord wrought a great victory,

and three of the thirty chief went down and came to David. In the

harvest time unto the cave of Adelum Adelamb and a troop of the Philistines pitched

in the valley of raythem Raphaim and David was then in a hold, and

the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem. And David longed and said,

oh, that one would give me drink of the water of the well

of Bethlehem, which is by the gate. And the three mighty men broke

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.

Nevertheless, he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto the Lord,

and he said, be it far from me, oh Lord, that

I should do the is not this the blood of the men that went into

jeopardy of their lives? Therefore he would not drink it. These things,

these things did these three mighty men. And Abishai, the brother of joe

Ab the son of Zaria, was chief among three. And he lifted up

his spirit against three hundred and slew them, and had the name among three?

Was he not most honorable of three? Therefore he was their captain.

How Bit he attained not unto the first three. And Benaya, the son

of Johiada, the son of valiant Man, the son of a valiant man

of Kabzil, who had done many acts. He slewed two lion like men

of Moab. He went down also and slew a line in the midst of

a pit in time of snow. And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly

man. And Egyptian had a spear in his hand. But he went down

to him with the staff and plucked the spirit out of the Egyptian's hand and

slewed him with his own spear. These things did Baniyah Banaya, the son

of Johaida and the had and had the name among three mighty men. He

was more honorable than the thirty. But he attained not to the first three,

and David sent him over his guard. Asahel, the brother of Joab,

was one of thirty. One of the thirty. El Hanan, the

son of Dado of Bethlehem, Shamah, the Harodite Elika, the Horodite Alez,

the Paltite Ira, the son of Akish, the ti Koite, Abazar,

Abezer, the Anethite, Anethanite, Aneite, mebanal Mebani, the Hushathite

Gooddite select the Ammonite Nahari, the Berethite armor bearer to joeab the son of

zaia Ira, and I right, Garab, and if right you're Ray of

the Hittite thirty and seven in all right, So that's the book of Second

Samuel twenty three reading, all right, just listing all of the people around

David, all the warriors, all the different peoples and tribes and backgrounds or

what have you. All right, So now we're gonna get into the book

of Second Samuel. Chapter twenty four, Second Samuel, twenty four. This

is the last chapter of Second Samuel, all right, So after this we

would start diving into the book of first Kings. All right, So definite

looking forward to that, the book of first Samuel, Second Samul, of

very good books. And this is the completion of it today, all right,

tonight. So here we are, y'all, Second Samuel twenty four.

Here we go, last chapter, and again the anger of the Lord was

kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, go number

Israel and Judah. For the King said to joe Ab, the captain of

the host which was with him, go now through all the tribes of Israel,

from Dan even to Beersheba, and number ye the people that I may

know the number of the people. And joe Ab said, unto the King.

Now the Lord that God add unto the people, how manysoever they be,

and hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord, the King may

see it. But why doth my Lord, the King delight in this king

and this thing? Notwithstanding, the King's word prevailed against Joab and against the

captors of the Host. And Joab and the captors of the Host went out

from the presence of the king to number the people of Israel. And they

passed over Judah. They passed over Jordan, and pitched in Aurora, on

the right side of the city that lie in the midst of the River of

God, and towards Jazur Jazer. Then they came to Glead and to the

land of to Tim to tim Hashai. And they came to dan Jane,

Danjan, and about to Zadan, and came to the stronghold of Tyree,

and to all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites. And they

went out to the south of Judah, even to Beersheba. So when they

had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of

nine months and twenty days, and Joab gave up the sum of the number

of the people and to the king, and there were in Israel eight hundred

thousand valiant men that drew the sword, and the men of Judah were five

hundred thousand men. And David's heart smote him that after that he had numbered

the people. And David sent er to the Lord. I have sent greatly

in that I have done, And now I beseech thee old Lord take away

the iniquity of thy si if I've done very foolishly. For when David was

up in the morning, the word of the Lord came into the prophet God

David's here, saying, go and send to David. Thus set the Lord.

I offer THEE three things. Choose three. Choose THEE one of them,

that I may do it unto THEE. So God came to David and

told him and said, unto him, shall seven years of family come into

THEE in thy land, or with thou flee three months before thy enemies while

they pursue THEE, or that there be three days pestilence in thy land.

Now advisers, see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.

And David said it to God. I am in a great strait. Let

us fall now to the hand of the Lord, for his mercies are great,

and let me not fall into the hand of man. So the Lord

sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even till the time appointed, and

there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba, seventy thousand men.

And when the Angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the

Lord repented him of the evil and said to the Angel that destroyed any people,

it is enough, staying now to thy hand. And the Angel of

the Lord was by the thrushing place of a rah Aruna the Jebusite, and

David spoken to the Lord when he saw the angel that smote the people,

and said, lo, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly.

But these sheep, what have they done? Let thy hand I pray thee

be against me and against my father's house. And God came that day to

David and said to him, go up, we're and all turn to the

Lord. In the threshing floor of Aruna, the Jebusite and David, according

to the saying of God, went up as the Lord commanded, and Aruna

looked and saw the King and his servants coming on toward him, and Aruna

went out and bowed himself before the King on his face upon the ground.

And Aruna said, wherefore is my lord? The king come to a servant,

and David said, to buy the front the threshing floor of thee,

to build an altarn to the Lord, that the plague may be stayed from

the people. And a Runa said it to David, Let my lord the

King take an offer what seemeth good unto him. Behold beer, here be

oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing instruments and other instruments of the oxen for

wood. All these things did Aruna as a king give un to the King.

And Aruna said it to the King. The Lord thy God, accept

thee. And the King said it to Aruna, nay, but I will

surely buy it of thee at a price. Neither will I offer offerings or

to the Lord my God, of that which doth cost me nothing. So

David brought the flushing floor and the oxen for fifty shakes of silver, and

David built they're an altar into the Lord and offered offerings of peace offerings.

So the Lord wasn't treated for the land, and the plague was stayed from

Israel. Very interesting where they finished the book of Second Samuel. So here

you see God's anger very kindled towards Israel, you know, and he's punishing

Israel. He's punishing David and Israel altogether. And God is speak of David

through a prophet saying through through God and saying, hey, you have three

choices. Which one do you want to pick as far as your destruction or

being recompensed your chastisemith. So David just rolled with the pestilence one, you

know, because that one was just three days. It was the shortest one,

so David picked that one. He was also chosen with the option of

seven years of famine or three months before the enemy. So David of course

picked the shortest punishment, you know what I'm saying. So you see God's

anger to with him and chasting him and discipline him what have you. But

you know, David and Israel, they all did wicked before the Lord.

They all straight away from the commandment. So God had to punish them and

make a lesson out of it and make an example out of them, you

know what I mean. Like the God is no respective of persons as mighty

and King David was. He still was tripping and still disobeyed, So it

would be unfair if God punished all types of people except David, you get

what I'm saying. So that was a point of God punishing David to make

an example out of him too. You know, we serve a fair a

God, we serve a just God, you know. So, um yeah,

man, that's a very interesting way to end the book of Second samuel

A. Right, So you're seeing like the whole Israel and Judah kingdoms,

like you know, you see the division among it, you see the weakness

of it, you see the disobedience. Starting to see what started all this,

you get what I'm saying, the royalty, the kingship, how it's

passed down. You're starting to see how it was kind of all broken down

through disobedience, division, pride, disobeings to God, things of that nature.

So we're gonna get definitely gonna get more into that, all right,

Like these things that are going on within this scripture here and even before two

leads up to why we're all scattered off four coins of the earth. Right

now, you know what I'm saying, this is why we're all scattered and

not really in our power like that, you know what I'm saying as far

as like material status or whatnot, because of what our forefathers did, you

know. So we have to be obedient people and really follow Christ and follow

the Gospel. Amen. Because you saw the examples of what happened to those

before as you saw how God did them, all right, So we can't

repeat those patterns. We have to be the everlasting foundation that Daniel had a

dream belt. Amen. We have to really be obedient, faithful people,

all right, So that you have a child. That's the Book of Second

Samuel reading overall, all right. So after this Bible series, we're gonna

continue this Bible series on the Book of First Kings. Are gonna get into

the First Kings on the next episode and just go from there. Right,

So there you have a child. First Samuel, Second Samuel. Very beautiful

books, man. I enjoy reading them. I love reading about all the

stories of it. I love ring about the priest, the prophet of Samuel,

how blessed he was, and how obedient he was, and how he

handled God's service, and how he ministered and how he handled the priesthood and

his responsibility and duties. Amen. And I love the story of you know,

the story of sauls an interests of story too. You know, every

story is always the less you could get out of it, you know.

And I also like the story of David that just you know, David was

tripping when he was you know, while not being disobedient, you know,

but him killing Goliath and being king and all those things. It was nice,

but he saw the decisions he made Ladder, you know, he disobeyed.

So I got to learn from that, all right, So that you

have it, what I would love to do as I close out, is

give all the glory to the most High God of Abraham, Masac and Jacob,

and praise it's only begotten son who died for us ands. Amen.

All right, y'all, So here we go, Yes, yes, Amen,
