Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott'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.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewNowוְעַתָּ֕ה (wə·‘at·tāh)Conjunctive waw | AdverbStrong's 6258: At this timemay the LORDיְהוָ֥ה (Yah·weh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3068: LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israelshowיַֽעַשׂ־ (ya·‘aś-)Verb - Qal - Imperfect Jussive - third person masculine singularStrong's 6213: To do, makeyouעִמָּכֶ֖ם (‘im·mā·ḵem)Preposition | second person masculine pluralStrong's 5973: With, equally withloving devotionחֶ֣סֶד (ḥe·seḏ)Noun - masculine singularStrong's 2617: Kindness, piety, reproof, beautyand truth,וֶאֱמֶ֑ת (we·’ĕ·meṯ)Conjunctive waw | Noun - feminine singularStrong's 571: Stability, certainty, truth, trustworthinessand Iאָנֹכִ֗י (’ā·nō·ḵî)Pronoun - first person common singularStrong's 595: Iwill alsoוְגַ֣ם (wə·ḡam)Conjunctive waw | ConjunctionStrong's 1571: Assemblage, also, even, yea, though, both, andshowאֶעֱשֶׂ֤ה (’e·‘ĕ·śeh)Verb - Qal - Imperfect - first person common singularStrong's 6213: To do, makeyouאִתְּכֶם֙ (’it·tə·ḵem)Preposition | second person masculine pluralStrong's 854: Nearness, near, with, by, at, amongthe sameהַזֹּ֔את (haz·zōṯ)Article | Pronoun - feminine singularStrong's 2063: Hereby in it, likewise, the one other, same, she, so much, such deed, that, favorהַטּוֹבָ֣ה (haṭ·ṭō·w·ḇāh)Article | Noun - feminine singularStrong's 2896: Pleasant, agreeable, goodbecauseאֲשֶׁ֥ר (’ă·šer)Pronoun - relativeStrong's 834: Who, which, what, that, when, where, how, because, in order thatyou have doneעֲשִׂיתֶ֖ם (‘ă·śî·ṯem)Verb - Qal - Perfect - second person masculine pluralStrong's 6213: To do, makethis.הַזֶּֽה׃ (haz·zeh)Article | Pronoun - masculine singularStrong's 2088: This, thatJump to PreviousAct Faithfulness Favor Good Goodness Kind Kindness Loving Requite Rewarded Shew Show Steadfast True.
