David
2 #
Lev 3.3; 1 Sam 16.11–13; Sir 35.2 As the fat is set apart from the offering of well-being,
so David was set apart from the Israelites.

He played with lions as though they were young goats
and with bears as though they were lambs of the flock.

and take away the people’s disgrace,
when he whirled the stone in the sling
and struck down the boasting Goliath?

and praised him for the blessings bestowed by the Lord,
when the glorious diadem was given to him.
7 #
1 Sam 2.1; 2 Sam 5.7, 25; 8.1–14; 10.19 For he wiped out his enemies on every side
and scorned his adversaries the Philistines;
he crushed their power#47.7 Gk horn to our own day.
8 #
2 Sam 23.1–7
In all that he did he gave thanks
to the Holy One, the Most High, proclaiming his glory;
he sang praise with all his heart,

to make sweet melody with their voices.#47.9 Other ancient authorities add and daily they sing their praises
10He gave beauty to the festivals
and arranged their times throughout the year,#47.10 Gk to completion
while they praised God’s#47.10 Gk his holy name
and the sanctuary resounded from early morning.
11 #
1 Sam 2.1; 2 Sam 7.12; 12.13 The Lord took away his sins
and exalted his power#47.11 Gk horn forever;
he gave him a covenant of kingship
and a glorious throne in Israel.
Solomon
12After him a wise son rose up
who because of him lived in security:#47.12 Heb: Gk in a broad place
13 #
1 Kings 4.24, 25; 5.4, 5 Solomon reigned in an age of peace,
because God gave him rest all around,
so that he might build a house in his name
and provide a sanctuary to stand forever.
14 #

You overflowed like the Nile#47.14 Heb: Gk a river with understanding.

Your influence spread throughout the earth,
and you filled it with proverbs having deep meaning.

1 Kings 4.34; 10.1 Your fame reached to far-off islands,
and you were loved for your peaceful reign.
17 #
1 Kings 4.31–34
For your songs, proverbs, parables,
and understanding the nations marveled at you.

1 Kings 10.22, 27 In the name of the Lord God,
who is called the God of Israel,
you gathered gold like tin
and amassed silver like lead.
19 #
1 Kings 11.1–3
But you brought in women to lie at your side,
and through your body you were brought into subjection.
20You stained your honor
and defiled your family line,
so that you brought wrath upon your children,
and they were grieved#47.20 Other ancient authorities read I was grieved at your folly,
21 #
1 Kings 11.26; 12.15–17 because the sovereignty was divided
and a rebel kingdom arose out of Ephraim.

2 Sam 7.15; Ps 89.33 But the Lord will never give up his mercy
or cause any of his words#47.22 Heb Syr: Gk works to perish;

or destroy the family line of him who loved him.
So he gave a remnant to Jacob
and to David a root from his own family.
Rehoboam and Jeroboam

1 Kings 11.43; 12.8, 28; Sir 10.3 Solomon rested with his ancestors
and left behind him one of his sons
broad in#47.23 Heb Syr: Gk the people’s folly and lacking in sense,

until vengeance came upon them.
