Second Samuel -- 23

{1} 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 psalmist of Israel, said,
{2} The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue.
{3} The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.
{4} And he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain.
{5} Although my house be not so with God; yet he hath made with me 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.
{6} But the sons of Belial shall be all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands:
{7} But the man that shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in the same place.
{8} These be the names of the mighty men whom David had: The Tachmonite that sat in the seat, chief among the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite: he lift up his spear against eight hundred, whom he slew at one time.
{9} And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away:
{10} He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.
{11} And after him was Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a piece of ground full of lentiles: and the people fled from the Philistines.
{12} But he stood in the midst of the ground, and defended it, and slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory.
{13} And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam: and the troop of the Philistines pitched in the valley of Rephaim.
{14} And David was then in an hold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem.
{15} 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!
{16} And the three mighty men brake 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.
{17} And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this: is not this the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mighty men.
{18} And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief among three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred, and slew them, and had the name among three.
{19} Was he not most honourable of three? therefore he was their captain: howbeit he attained not unto the first three.
{20} And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man, of Kabzeel, who had done many acts, he slew two lionlike men of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow:
{21} And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.
{22} These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name among three mighty men.
{23} He was more honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to the first three. And David set him over his guard.
{24} Asahel the brother of Joab was one of the thirty; Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
{25} Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite,
{26} Helez the Paltite, Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite,
{27} Abiezer the Anethothite, Mebunnai the Hushathite,
{28} Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite,
{29} Heleb the son of Baanah, a Netophathite, Ittai the son of Ribai out of Gibeah of the children of Benjamin,
{30} Benaiah the Pirathonite, Hiddai of the brooks of Gaash,
{31} Abi-albon the Arbathite, Azmaveth the Barhumite,
{32} Eliahba the Shaalbonite, of the sons of Jashen, Jonathan,
{33} Shammah the Hararite, Ahiam the son of Sharar the Hararite,
{34} Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maachathite, Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite,
{35} Hezrai the Carmelite, Paarai the Arbite,
{36} Igal the son of Nathan of Zobah, Bani the Gadite,
{37} Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai the Beerothite, armourbearer to Joab the son of Zeruiah,
{38} Ira an Ithrite, Gareb an Ithrite,
{39} Uriah the Hittite: thirty and seven in all.

Second Samuel -- 24

{1} And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah.
{2} For the king said to Joab the captain of the host, which was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, and number ye the people, that I may know the number of the people.
{3} And Joab said unto the king, Now the LORD thy God add unto the people, how many soever they be, an hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see it: but why doth my lord the king delight in this thing?
{4} Notwithstanding the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. And Joab and the captains of the host went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel.
{5} And they passed over Jordan, and pitched in Aroer, on the right side of the city that lieth in the midst of the river of Gad, and toward Jazer:
{6} Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtim-hodshi; and they came to Dan-jaan, and about to Zidon,
{7} And came to the strong hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hibites, and of the Canaanites: and they went out to the south of Judah, even to Beer-sheba.
{8} So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
{9} And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto 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.
{10} And David's heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the LORD, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
{11} For when David was up in the morning, the word of the LORD came unto the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
{12} Go and say unto David, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things; choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.
{13} So Gad came to David, and told him, and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thine enemies, while they pursue thee? or that there be three days' pestilence in thy land? now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.
{14} And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies are great: and let me not fall into the hand of man.
{15} So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men.
{16} 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 the people, It is enough: stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshingplace of Araunah the Jebusite.
{17} And David spake unto 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 thine hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father's house.
{18} And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him, Go up, rear an altar unto the LORD in the threshingfloor of Araunah the Jebusite.
{19} And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as the LORD commanded.
{20} And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king on his face upon the ground.
{21} And Araunah said, Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshingfloor of thee, to build an altar unto the LORD, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
{22} And Araunah said unto David, Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good unto him: behold, here be oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing instruments and other instruments of the oxen for wood.
{23} All these things did Araunah, as a king, give unto the king. And Araunah said unto the king, The LORD thy God accept thee.
{24} And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
{25} And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD was intreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.

Luke -- 24

{1} Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.
{2} And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
{3} And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
{4} And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
{5} And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
{6} He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
{7} Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
{8} And they remembered his words,
{9} And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
{10} It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.
{11} And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
{12} Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.
{13} And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
{14} And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
{15} And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
{16} But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
{17} And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
{18} And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass therein these days?
{19} And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
{20} And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
{21} But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
{22} Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
{23} And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
{24} And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
{25} Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
{26} Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
{27} And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
{28} And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
{29} But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
{30} And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
{31} And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
{32} And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
{33} And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
{34} Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
{35} And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.
{36} And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
{37} But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
{38} And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
{39} Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
{40} And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.
{41} And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
{42} And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.
{43} And he took it, and did eat before them.
{44} And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
{45} Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
{46} And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
{47} And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
{48} And ye are witnesses of these things.
{49} And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
{50} And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
{51} And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.
{52} And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:
{53} And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.
