1 Chronicles 11:1-3

11Then all Israel gathered to David at Hebron 2and said, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh. 2In times past, even when Saul was king, you were the one who led out and brought in Israel; and the Lord your God said to you, ‘3You shall shepherd My people Israel, and you shall be leader over My people Israel.’” 3So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the Lord; and 4they anointed David king over Israel, 5in accordance with the word of the Lord through Samuel.
