1Chronicles 4:9,10 And Jabez.(means 'sorrowful', 'affliction', 'grief').was more honourable than his brethren.(the Jewish writers talk of Jabez being highly regarded and well versed in Old Testament law; a town apparently was named after him:.1Chronicles 2:55. Jabez was a good man who nonetheless had a sad life {perhaps because of how his brothers were to him}, that is, until he asked God to "bless him indeed"). And his mother called his name Jabez, because I bare him with sorrow, she said. And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that you would.bless me indeed.(or as original has for 'bless', 'be together with', 'utterly, completely and entirely'; he now believed God could do this for him and was urging God to do it.now.and throughly and completely; he knew for a certainty that God would do it, that there was no reason for God not to), and.enlarge my coast.(borders).and that.your hand might be with me.(Joshua 4:24; Isaiah 59:1; Acts 11:21).and that you would.keep me from evil that it may not grieve me.

Jamieson, Faucett and Brown Commentary.notes that the original is literally rendered 'that I may have no more sorrow'. And God granted him that which he requested. God remained aloof until Jabez called on Him, why? Call on God for things in your life.

1Chronicles 4:40 And they found fat pasture and good and the land was wide and quiet and peaceable, for they of Ham had dwelt there of old.

And they smote the rest of the Amalekites that were escaped and dwelt there unto this day.

1Chronicles 5:10 And in the days of Saul they made war with the Hagarites, who fell by their hand and they dwelt in their tents throughout all the east land of Gilead.

1Chronicles 5:17-22 All these were reckoned by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah and in the days of Jeroboam II king of Israel. The sons of Reuben and the Gadites.(Genesis 15:19-21).and half the tribe of Manasseh, of valiant men, men able to bear buckler and sword and to shoot with bow and skilful in war, were four and forty thousand seven hundred and threescore, that went out to the war.

1Chronicles 5:19 And they made war with the Hagarites, with Jetur and Nephish and Nodab.
Jetur & Nephish:.Genesis 25:13-15; comprised from Dictionaries: Nodab means noble, probably a tribe descended from one of the sons of Ishmael who occupied land on the east of the Jordan river with whom the two and a half (Numbers 34:14,15) trans-Jordanic tribes made war and conquered them.
1Chronicles 5:20 And they were helped against them and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand and all that were with them, for they cried to God in the battle and he was intreated of them because they put their trust in him

1Chronicles 5:25 And they transgressed against the God of their fathers and went a whoring after the Gods of the people of the land, whom God destroyed before them.

1Chronicles 5:26 And the God of Israel put an impulse into the heart of Pul, king of Assyria and of Tiglath-pileser, king of Assyria, who took them away as prisoners, all the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, to Halah and Habor and Hara and to the river of Gozan, to this day.

1Chronicles 6:39 And his brother Asaph, who stood on his right hand, even Asaph the son of Berachiah, the son of Shimea.
Asaph wrote the Psalm 50 and Psalms 73-83.
1Chronicles 9:1 So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies and behold, they were written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah, who were carried away to Babylon for their transgression.

1Chronicles 9:17-19 And the porters were, Shallum and Akkub and Talmon and Ahiman and their brethren. Shallum was the chief who hitherto waited in the king's gate eastward. They were porters in the companies of the children of Levi. And Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah and his brethren, of the house of his father, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the gates of the tabernacle and their fathers, being over the host of the Lord, were keepers of the entry.

1Chronicles 9:21-23 And Zechariah the son of Meshelemiah was porter of the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. All these which were chosen to be porters in the gates were two hundred and twelve. These were reckoned by their genealogy in their villages, whom David and Samuel the seer did ordain in their set office. So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the house of the Lord, namely, the house of the tabernacle, by wards.(divisions).

1Chronicles 9:26-31 For these Levites, the four chief porters, were in their set office and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God. And they lodged round about the house of God, because the charge was upon them and the opening thereof every morning pertained to them. And certain of them had the charge of the ministering vessels, that they should bring them in and out by tale. Some of them also were appointed to oversee the vessels and all the instruments of the sanctuary and the fine flour and the wine and the oil and the frankincense and the spices. And some of the sons of the priests made the ointment of the spices. And Mattithiah, one of the Levites, who was the firstborn of Shallum the Korahite, had the set office over the things that were made in the pans.

1Chronicles 9:32 And other of their brethren, of the sons of the Kohathites, were over the shewbread, to prepare it every sabbath.

1Chronicles 9:33 And these are the singers, chief of the fathers of the Levites, who remaining in the chambers were free.(from other duties), for they were employed in that work day and night.

2Samuel 23:15-39.
1Chronicles 13:6 And David went up and all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kirjathjearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the Lord, that dwells between the cherubims, whose name is called on it.

1Chronicles 13:8 And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, with singing, harps, psalteries, timbrels, with cymbals and with trumpets.

1Chronicles 13:9 And when they came unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled.

1Chronicles 13:10 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzza and he smote him.(2Samuel 6:6,7), because he put his hand to the ark and there he died before God.

1Chronicles 13:11-13 And David was displeased, because the Lord had made a breach upon Uzza, wherefore that place is called Perezuzza to this day. And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God home to me? So David brought not the ark home to himself to the city of David.(known today as Jerusalem), but carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite. 

1Chronicles 13:14 And the ark of God remained with the family of Obededom in his house three months. And the Lord blessed the house of Obededom and all that he had.

1Chronicles 14:11 So they came up to Baalperazim and David smote them there. Then David said, God has broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters, therefore they called the name of that place Baalperazim.

1Chronicles 14:16 David therefore did as God commanded him and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer.

1Chronicles 15:1 And David made him houses in the city of David and prepared a place for the ark of God and pitched for it a tent.
2Chronicles 1:4.
1Chronicles 15:6 Of the sons of Merari; Asaiah the chief and his brethren two hundred and twenty.

1Chronicles 15:16 And David spoke to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren to be the singers with instruments of musick, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the voice with joy.

1Chronicles 15:29 And it came to pass, as the ark of the covenant of the Lord came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing and she despised him in her heart.

1Chronicles 16:1-3 So they brought the ark of God and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God. And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord. And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread and a good piece of flesh and a flagon of wine.

1Chronicles 16:4 And he appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of the Lord and to recor and to thank and praise the Lord God of Israel.

1Chronicles 16:5,6 Asaph the chief and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel and Shemiramoth and Jehiel and Mattithiah and Eliab and Benaiah and Obededom and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps, but Asaph made a sound with cymbals; Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.

1Chronicles 16:7 Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the Lord into the hand of Asaph and his brethren.

1Chronicles 16:8 Give thanks unto the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.(*).

1Chronicles 16:9 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk you of all his wondrous works.

1Chronicles 16:10-22 Glory you in his holy name. Let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord. Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.(*). Remember his marvelous works that he has done, his wonders and the judgments of his mouth, O you seed of Israel his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones. He is the Lord our God. His judgments are in all the Earth. Be you mindful always of his covenant, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations, even of the covenant which he made with Abraham and of his oath unto Isaac and has confirmed the same to Jacob for a law and to Israel for an everlasting covenant, Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance. When you were but few, even a few and strangers in it. And when they went from nation to nation and from one kingdom to another people, He suffered no man to do them wrong. Yea, he reproved kings for their sakes, Saying, Touch not mine anointed and do my prophets no harm.

1Chronicles 16:23 Sing unto the Lord, all the Earth. Show forth from day to day his salvation.

1Chronicles 16:24 Declare his glory among the heathen, his marvellous works among all nations.

1Chronicles 16:25,26 For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised. He also is to be feared above all Gods. For all the Gods of the people are idols, but the Lord made the heavens.

1Chronicles 16:27-29 Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place. Give unto the Lord, you kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.(God wants us to be strong in Him). Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name. Bring an offering.(what kind?).and come before him. Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

1Chronicles 16:30.Fear before him, all the Earth. The world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.
A poorly translated verse, but they only had six original words to work with in the Aramaic/Hebrew language of the day which had no vowels, so they came up here with this explanation. An accurate translation would have been 'Dance all you on the Earth in the presence of the true God and don't worry about the Earth moving if you all dance at once, because the land won't move'.
1Chronicles 16:31-33 Let the heavens be glad and let the Earth rejoice and let men say among the nations, The Lord reigns. Let the sea roar and the fulness thereof. Let the fields rejoice and all that is therein. Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the Lord, because he comes to judge the Earth.

1Chronicles 16:34 O give thanks unto God for he is good. His mercy endures forever.

1Chronicles 16:35,36 And say you, Save us, O God of our salvation and gather us together and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to your holy name.(that is, that you are holy with all that means).and glory in your praise. Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen.(word amen' means 'and so it is', that is, those hearing the words, agreed with them; word 'amen' also has other meanings).and praised the Lord.

1Chronicles 16:37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the Lord Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required.

1Chronicles 16:43 And all the people departed every man to his house. And David returned to bless his house.

1Chronicles 17:19,20 O Lord, for your servant's sake and according to your own heart have you done all this greatness in making known all these great things. O God, there is none like you, neither is there any true God like you, according to all that we have heard with our ears..(God's greatness)
