David goes up to Hebron, and the men of Judah anoint him king over the house of Judah

다윗이 헤브론으로 올라가고 유다 사람들이 그에게 기름을 부어 유다 족속의 왕을 삼음

2 Samuel 2:1–4: after this, David inquires of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah?” The LORD says to him, “Go up.” David says, “Where shall I go up?” He says, “To Hebron.” So David goes up there with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite. David brings up his men who were with him, every man with his household. They live in the cities of Hebron. The men of Judah come, and there they anoint David king over the house of Judah. They tell David, “The men of Jabesh Gilead were those who buried Saul.” The second answer, “He said” (the Korean 가라사대), names no speaker in either edition; at 2:4 the Korean Revised Version has 혹이 (someone) tell David.
