2 Samuel 2:1; 2 Samuel 2:4; 2 Samuel 2:11

1 And it came to pass after this that David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go up into one of the cities of Judah? And Jehovah said to him, Go up. And David said, Whither shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron.

4 And the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, It is the men of Jabesh-Gilead that have buried Saul.

11 And the time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
