5 So David (beloved) sent messengers to the men of Jabesh-gilead (dry) (rocky region) to tell them, “The LORD {YHWH} bless you⁺, because you⁺ showed this kindness to Saul (desired) your⁺ lord when you⁺ buried him. 6 Now may the LORD {YHWH} show you⁺ loving devotion {chesed} and faithfulness, and I will also show you⁺ the same favor because you⁺ have done this. 7 Now then, be strong and courageous, for though Saul (desired) your⁺ lord is dead, the house of Judah (praised) has anointed me as their king.” 2 Samuel 2:5-7, Berean Annotated Bible.
