2 Samuel 2:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ So David sent men to them with a message. He said, ‘You were kind to Saul, your master, when you buried his body. So I pray that the Lord will bless you. ⁶ I pray that the Lord will keep you safe with his faithful love. I too will do good things for you, because of what you have done. ⁷ Saul, your master, is dead, so you must continue to be strong and brave. The people of Judah have now chosen me to rule them as king.’
