Context — David's Message to Jabesh-gileadgenerated

5So David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh-gilead to tell them, “The LORD bless you, because you showed this kindness to Saul your lord when you buried him.
6Now may the LORD show you loving devotion and faithfulness, and I will also show you the same favor because you have done this.
7Now then, be strong and courageous, for though Saul your lord is dead, the house of Judah has anointed me as their king.”
8Meanwhile, Abner son of Ner, the commander of Saul’s army, took Saul’s son Ish-bosheth, moved him to Mahanaim,

2 Samuel 2:6 captures David's heartfelt response to the men of Jabesh-gilead for their kindness in burying Saul. He invokes the LORD's loving devotion and faithfulness upon them, promising to reciprocate their favor because of their actions. This moment highlights the importance of loyalty and kindness in leadership, as David seeks to establish a positive relationship with those who honored Saul.

The Key Word חֶסֶד, Che.sedgenerated

The word חֶסֶד (chesed) refers to a deep, covenantal kindness or loyalty, often associated with God's loving actions towards humanity. It emphasizes the relational aspect of kindness, indicating a commitment to act benevolently towards others.

In this verse, David uses חֶסֶד to express his desire for the LORD to bestow kindness upon the men of Jabesh-gilead, reflecting the importance of loyalty and gratitude in their relationship.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The main verb, יַֽעַשׂ (ya'as), governs the entire verse, with two clauses following it: one expressing what the LORD will do and the other what David will do. The structure emphasizes the reciprocal nature of kindness.

The sentence begins with a conjunction phrase, leading into a clause that describes the LORD's actions, followed by David's commitment to act similarly. This arrangement highlights the importance of both divine and human responses to kindness.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

In the Septuagint, the Hebrew חֶסֶד is rendered as ἔλεος (eleos), which typically conveys mercy or compassion. This choice indicates a broader interpretation of the kindness being requested, emphasizing the aspect of mercy.

The Greek term ἀλήθειαν (aletheian) for faithfulness reflects a similar commitment to truth and reliability, aligning with the Hebrew concept while also broadening its application.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(6) I also will requite you.—David’s message of kindness and blessing is quite in accordance with his whole bearing towards Saul and his house, and. at the same time, was one of wise policy. The literal rendering is, I also show you this good, the Hebrew not conveying directly the idea of future recompense, as in the English. The thought is that David, as now the rightful king of Israel, appreciates the act, and wishes to show publicly his favour to the men of Jabesh-gilead. He then, in the following verse, suggests the propriety of their now recognising him as the successor of their lost monarch and friend.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran

The Masoretic Text of 2 Samuel 2:6 reads, 'Now may the LORD show you loving devotion and faithfulness, and I will also show you the same favor because you have done this.' The Septuagint agrees with the Masoretic Text in a word-by-word correspondence, indicating that both texts share the same essential meaning. The Dead Sea Scrolls (4Q51) contain fragments that align closely with the Masoretic Text, although some words are partly restored and others supplied by an editor, suggesting that while the core message is consistent, the preservation of the text varies in completeness. Overall, the main witnesses support the same sentiment expressed in the verse, highlighting the themes of kindness and faithfulness.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'

good (Tobh, Tubh, yaTabh; agathos, agathon, kalos, kalon): In English "good" is used in various senses, most of which are represented in the Bible.

(1) In the Old Testament the commonest word is Tobh, occurring very frequently and translated in a great variety of ways. Of the different shades of meaning, which frequently run into each other, the following may be distinguished:

(a) Possessing desirable qualities, beneficial, agreeable, e.g. "good for food" (Ge 2:9); "We will do thee good" (Nu 10:29); Who will show us any good?" (Ps 4:6); "good tidings of good" (Isa 52:7).

זֹאת (zot) is a demonstrative pronoun and adverb meaning 'this' or 'here.' It can stand alone or be used in apposition to a noun, often serving as a predicate. The word can also attach enclitically to interrogative pronouns to add emphasis. In poetry, it may function as a relative pronoun, though this is rare.
