LEB(i)
5 So David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh-Gilead and said to them, "May you be blessed by Yahweh because you did this loyal love with your lord, with Saul, and you buried him.
6 Now may Yahweh show loyal love and faithfulness with you. I will also show the good with you that you have done in this matter.
7 So then, let your hands be strong and ⌊be valiant⌋,* for your lord Saul is dead, and the house of Judah has anointed me as king over them."
