In context

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,

9And made him king over Gilead, Asher, Jezreel, Ephraim, and Benjamin—over all Israel.
