TVTranscript
00:15Previously on House of David, with five unified armies, we shall ride against Saul.
00:20There is not a leader among us to command the five armies, certainly not you.
00:25I just heard I'm being sent on a mission with you. It must be important.
00:29And what are we to do?
00:31Remove the threat, along with his bloodline. There can be no survivors.
00:35Go! Get away, son! Run!
00:38I fear we are being selfish.
00:40John, please.
00:41I've made my decision. You will marry Madhav. I will live with him.
00:46That is a dozen men we've lost, David.
00:47Every dead Philistine had one.
00:50Charcoal.
00:52You promised me iron swords as refined as Goliath's.
00:55I need time, my king, and more materials.
00:57As a reward for your bravery, I give you command of a thousand blood!
01:03Do you really think David is capable of commanding an army?
01:08It is wise to use David to unite our people.
01:11They love him.
01:17Ohhh?
01:24SOCI dezooloul mile
01:25Get back, boy!
01:30One.워e,
01:31we're bringing my duty. Well done,
01:32we did nothing. It's all
01:32written. Stop! That
01:40wasko,
01:41Kenny. I can't really
01:42stop by the door justice.
01:44The righteous will flourish like a palm tree.
01:50They will grow like a cedar of Lebanon.
01:59Clanted in the house of the Lord.
02:05They will flourish in the courts of our gods.
02:24By this, I know that you are pleased with me.
02:31Because my enemies do not triumph over me.
03:01Do not let them triumph over me.
03:11Ah, the great warrior.
03:15Jonathan.
03:16That's still writing your poetry.
03:20See, it's gone by too quickly.
03:23Look at you, all this time.
03:26You still can't grow a beard, huh?
03:27I've been trying.
03:31How have you been?
03:33Tired from hearing of your many victories.
03:35Perhaps I could lose a few if you lose your burden.
03:38How is she?
03:40Michal.
03:44Distracting herself as much as she can.
03:47She teaches children now.
03:49Yes.
03:51What's going to rest?
03:54A house divided can be, well, an unpleasant place.
04:00Look at Sarah.
04:02I still think about her.
04:04Even after all this time.
04:09But her heart is bound by the loss of her brother.
04:13She cannot release it.
04:16Hmm.
04:18The pain behind us, it often blocks the joy ahead.
04:23Hmm.
04:25So what can be done?
04:29We look forward.
04:35Ambush!
04:45Hyatt!
04:46Is she in the center now?
04:48pikes!
04:51where did he come from?
04:52Home side!
04:53it is only...
04:55The heck your brother!
05:01Keep the other when I am covered.
05:09Stay down!
05:09I don't know what you're doing!
05:12I don't know what you're doing!
05:17Get off me!
05:19Protect David!
05:40Get off me!
05:42Got him!
05:45Got him!
05:49Come on!
05:50Get back!
05:53Run!
05:57Come on!
06:15Take this door!
06:18Jonathan!
06:50Die! Die!
06:51To the team!
06:54He's free! He's free!
06:56He's free! He's free!
06:59He's free!
07:00Come on! Come on!
07:00Come on!
07:01Come on!
07:03Who was that?
07:05Who was that?
07:09No!
07:10No!
07:15What?
07:17Raise your sword.
07:20No.
07:26This light is a feather.
07:29Yet still so strong.
07:31That... that was my sword.
07:34Are you going to replace it?
07:35Search the dead yourself.
07:38I love.
07:39Do not defy my wonders again.
07:42Then do not tell me what to do.
07:47Look at this.
07:53More charcoal.
07:54Yes. More charcoal that will not make it back to a Philistine forge.
07:58These are demon swords.
08:00David.
08:02Do you think these swords are cursed?
08:04No, I do not.
08:07Good.
08:08Every time we face these weapons,
08:10they are stronger and lighter.
08:13Follow Philistia.
08:14Are armed with these.
08:15God is able.
08:16.
08:19Plus I have held one far more perfect than this.
08:35It's difficult
08:36I know
08:37But it's important
08:43Writing
08:44Writing is how we remember what came before us
08:50Like the great stories of Jacob
08:54Moses and Noah
08:55Who knows, maybe one day
08:58You will write down such a story
08:59I would write the story of David
09:03The giant killer
09:08That would be a very good one
09:14I wonder how it ends
09:30The giant slayers
09:33The giant slayers
09:52It has been time enough
09:56When will you forgive me?
09:59It is you who abandoned our bed
10:05Do you have something to say?
10:11Surely you wouldn't have come all the way to this side of the palace if you didn't
10:23It is your name they should be chanting
10:26And your son after you
10:30They are chanting my name
10:32I have killed my thousands
10:35David is tens of thousands
10:38Yes, David
10:41David
10:45David
10:46David
10:48They will crown our boy today if they could
10:54He has driven your daughters apart
10:56And now he eclipses you in the eyes of your people
11:00He is a threat
11:02Why do you refuse to see it?
11:04Enough
11:07Your suspicion is a poison to me
11:09And everyone in this palace
11:11My suspicion is a shield
11:14To you and your throne
11:17The sooner you realize that, the better
11:32Our hero returns
11:35More victories, I'm told
11:38We, uh
11:39We have much to discuss
11:41We are badly in need of a wedding plan
11:43Yes
11:44But another time
11:45Please, I would love to take my rest
11:47Yes, of course
11:49Because
12:05It's time to stop fighting over charcoal
12:07Start forging our own swords
12:09To match these
12:11It must require a great deal of heat
12:13To forge weapons of this quality
12:16Philistines
12:17Philistines will never sacrifice so many lives
12:18Raiding our coal mines otherwise
12:25David swears Goliath's blade is even stronger
12:29If we're to stand any chance at all
12:31We need that weapon
12:33The knowledge behind it
12:35Do you know what became of it?
13:04And we'll see you again
13:04We'll see you next time
13:04And finally
13:04We'll see you next time
13:05We'll see you next time
13:09Greetings, Lord Commander! What are you doing in the City of the Priests?
13:14You're holding something here. Something brought here by your father. I need to see it.
13:20He instructed I reveal it in no one.
13:22So I instructed him.
13:49I've been trying to cipher what is edged on it.
13:52Philistian markings?
13:54Mostly. But some are much older. Egyptian, I believe.
14:03God...swords? Perhaps God and swords?
14:06No. No, I can't have swords.
14:12It's a thing that shows.
14:34Thank you, hon.
14:39Thank you, hon.
14:46It's bad. It's better.
14:58Good. There's the lion.
15:08Can I ask you something?
15:10Hm?
15:11What does it feel like?
15:15To be anointed?
15:18Like Joshua? Samson? Where my father was?
15:23Yes. Your father is anointed.
15:27No, you don't have to explain.
15:29Speak the truth to me.
15:31What does it feel like?
15:39Powerful.
15:40Like fire.
15:44Or a rushing wind.
15:50I become more of...
15:54Something.
15:56Everything I feel is amplified.
15:59Passion.
16:00Joy.
16:02Even rage.
16:05It frightens me.
16:09I fear I may lose control.
16:13I cannot speak of it to anyone.
16:16Except maybe you now.
16:19No one understands.
16:21I don't understand.
16:25Sometimes I feel that...
16:28To be anointed...
16:31Is to be alone.
16:35You're not alone, David.
16:44I'm sorry the throne won't pass to you as it should have.
16:50To be alone.
16:51To be alone.
17:08Hello, princess.
17:12David.
17:13I heard you were teaching children how to read.
17:17Does anyone stop me?

19:18i praise adonai you're safe
19:43you're avoiding me
19:46you know how the philistines have no interest in our marriage blissful or otherwise
19:50there are more battles i must fight to be worthy of this
19:52stop david you are delaying you're making excuses you've been gone for many seasons defending against our enemies i've waited
20:00long enough
20:02look i understand you still have feelings for my sister
20:06i see it
20:08but michael has moved on
20:10she's happier
20:11she's on her own path
20:13and you
20:16you are a bold enough soldier to know you can't keep marching backwards
20:22so the time has come
20:23to honor my father's wishes
20:27a date must be set
20:31do you agree
20:37i'm a servant of the can
20:41perfect
20:47when i was in endor there was a
20:49there was a man there
20:52master metal forger
20:55called himself the god of swords
20:59endor
21:01of that
21:05which is there they would perform rituals on his weapons
21:08but the true power came from his craftsmanship
21:13i believe he has discovered an entirely new metal
21:16one that would decimate even the finest bronze
21:21my king we need to find this man
21:24i believe i can convince him to teach us how to forge these weapons
21:29my army would convince him
21:31now if our army marches on endor the man will disappear before we ever breach the city gates
21:36this is not a job for an army
21:39but a handful of men
21:42in that case you should not be one of them
21:45my king
21:48so
21:52no one else knows endor as i do
21:54yes
21:57that is my fear
22:00it is a lawless godforsaken place
22:03i'm with your history there
22:04i know
22:07it's all in the past
22:08ovner
22:09it is all in my past
22:14what murders now is the future
22:17and in order to ensure it we must find this god of swords
22:21so
22:42it's not
22:45i can't do this
22:49so
22:49so
23:14Why are you looking at me?
23:17I've noticed.
23:19Lately, you seem to be fighting more than the enemy.
23:23And who else would I be fighting?
23:26You wrestle with God, like Jacob in old stories.
23:30God?
23:31Yes.
23:34Yes, I would fight him if I could find him.
23:38Ah, yeah.
23:40He's clearly with David.
23:47Why are we dressed like machines, huh?
23:50I think it's time to see the spies.
23:53And is that a problem?
23:55Yes.
23:55I make a terrible spy.
24:07I want to look after things here.
24:09And you communicate to her.
24:10Okay.
24:13And I'll read this.
24:14Let's see.
24:20Good things.
24:23What is it?
24:27I don't like that man.
24:29And I don't understand why your father trusts him.
24:32Go ahead.
24:33No, we don't trust him.
24:35But he is useful.
24:37Any animal who attacks on your behalf
24:40will one day attack you.
24:42Hmm.
24:42I'm just...
24:44I'm worried.
24:45Oh.
24:47Are we doing that now?
24:48What?
24:50Worrying about each other.
24:53Sweet.
24:55Oh, what is this?
24:57Dinner.
24:59Not this.
25:00You look so happy.
25:02It's very upsetting.
25:04I hear you have happy news of your own.
25:05No.
25:06What is this?
25:08David and Marav have set a wedding date.
25:20Congratulations.
25:41The city of Endor.
25:44Refuge for killers, renegades, deserters, and criminals.
25:50Be on guard.
26:12Whatever you hear or see, taking stride.
26:15Do not show offense.
26:17We need to draw as little attention as possible.
26:19You are my part.
26:31Forgive me, Commander.
26:33What are we doing here?
26:35We are merchants from Sidon
26:37trying to make a fair profit on our wares.
26:42That's all you need to know and leave the talking to me.
26:45What?
26:45Hooray.
26:49Hooray.
26:51Hooray.
26:54Hooray.
27:00Hooray.
27:03Hooray.
27:21Avner, I heard you were dead, slain by Goliath at the Battle of Elah.
27:27What brings you back here, where no one wants to see you?
27:32Looking for a man.
27:34Blacksmith.
27:35The name of God of Swords.
27:38This is his maker's mark.
27:41My friend here, he knows every person and item of value within the city was.
27:49He'd sell his own daughter for a silver shekel.
27:5525.
27:5675.
27:5750.
27:58And if you argue, you won't live to bargain again.
28:03I see you haven't changed, Avner, Lord Commander of Israel.
28:09Your mother must be so proud.
28:17Never mention my family again.
28:22Now take us to the God of Swords, and as you do, you will tell me everything you know about
28:26him.
28:29Follow me.
28:42I remember when I chose my dress.
28:45The fabrics weren't as fancy, but the feelings were softer than the finest silk.
28:57Are you sure this is what you want?
29:01Of course.
29:03Why wouldn't I?
29:05Marriage for power and status without emotion can come at significant cost.
29:12You seem to be enduring it with ease.
29:14With ease?
29:15Mm-hmm.
29:17Not with ease.
29:20You know, Mother, if I have learned anything from you, it's that love serves no purpose but to make one
29:31weak.
29:33That was never the lesson I intended to teach.
29:37Well, I was never that good at listening.
29:40I'm aware.
29:45Mother, I wanted to give you something.
29:58So you know that I am always with you.
30:04It's beautiful.
30:06You like it?
30:07I love it.
30:11I respect your decision.
30:14But if this is your choice, you must be hardened with resolve.
30:22You will never have the luxury of tears.
30:28Never.
30:39And I do love you, Father.
30:43Still.
30:47Still.
30:49Still.
30:49Still.
31:02Tell me, my dear.
31:06How are my daughters?
31:10Have they made peace yet?
31:13They're finding their way, my king.
31:17No one can cause pain like your own family.
31:24Time heals every wound.
31:29Except those, their vista.
31:44For a single second on the scale and watch your fortune change.
31:50Tonight, the night, copper turns to silver and silver turns to gold.
31:56Brother, this is the greatest day of my life.
32:01Have a shekel?
32:03No.
32:04The last time we gambled, you lost my horse.
32:05Brother!
32:06It was.
32:08It would be conspicuous if we didn't.
32:11Thank you, brother.
32:13I'll double your money.
32:15I'm not giving that back, are we?
32:17Definitely not.
32:19Place your final bets and mind your distance!
32:24That's him.
32:26Release the serpent!
32:35Yes.
32:36Oh, yes.
32:37Come on.
32:39No!
32:40No!
32:45You may be like a liar.
32:47I may be weak-minded.
32:50I would have bet on that one, too.
32:53No, you wouldn't.
32:59God of Swords.
33:01We've traveled a great distance to find you.
33:04Is that so?
33:08Perhaps you can help us.
33:09We hear you're even more skilled with metal than snakes.
33:14Are you sure you can afford this conversation?
33:17We'll pay you double.
33:19For the Philistines paid for the Sword of the Giant.
33:22That was a fine sword.
33:24There is none like it.
33:26Indeed.
33:28Come with me.
33:30I'm sorry.
33:41Come with me.
33:42No, no, no.
33:46Don't smoke them.
33:48I'm sorry.
33:52No, no, no.
33:56Come with me, don't you?
33:58No, no, no.
33:59We're in a
34:08Come. You come. Closer.
34:28Iron. The name itself means hardness and strength.
34:33Why is it so much stronger than bronze?
34:35It's skill. Higher levels of heat create stronger metal.
34:44If you're making hundreds of these, I assume it requires a vast amount of fuel.
34:50Charcoal.
34:53The Philistines worship their many gods. Our people worship one god.
35:00But I worship only this. This is what decides man's destiny.
35:10I want you to come with us to Geber. Teach us how to make these iron weapons by the thousands.
35:17I already escaped the Philistines because I wasn't interested in being locked in their dungeons.
35:23What makes you think I want to be locked in yours?
35:25Of course. Because I know this blade is not all you care about.
35:32Your daughter. I know she's an Edemite slave. I know her name.
35:41But Sheva. She was taken from you to cover your debts. I know where you can find her.
35:52Return with us to Geber. Teach us how to make these weapons. Then you'll get to see her face again.
36:14I have it.
36:29I got it.
36:31I got it.
36:31I got it.
36:32I got it.
36:32Come on.
37:12You're off. You didn't write out with Avner?
37:16He ordered me to stay.
37:19Avner and I, we've had some discord of late.
37:25And I also heard you were offering reading lessons.
37:29But you already read.
37:32Good point.
37:35Well, you may say I've wasted a trip.
37:44What is bothering you?
37:48What do you mean?
37:52Nothing.
37:54What do you mean?
37:56Forgive me, princess, but your hands, I've noticed you do that when you're worried.
38:10Do you make a habit of watching every little thing people do?
38:14Hmm.
38:16Only the interesting ones.
38:20It's...
38:21It's David.
38:23I worry whenever he leaves.
38:28You do realize he's about to marry your sister.
38:32They've set a wedding date, have they not?
38:35I can't help it.
38:40He has my heart.
38:43I fear he always will.
38:47You know.
38:48You know what?
38:49Will you do something for me?
38:52Anything.
38:53Protect him.
38:58I already am.
39:15I am.
39:16I am.
39:29I am.
39:30I am.
39:30You shouldn't be here.
39:31You mean in the servants area?
39:33We all serve someone.
39:36We both seek opportunities.
39:42You seem unwell, huh?
39:45Shall I summon a guard?
39:47Hmm?
39:48No.
39:48I need to know how the king cured himself of his curse.
39:52Then how would I know that?
39:55There are no secrets in this palace that do not find my ears.
40:01I can't help you.
40:03Can't?
40:04Can't or won't?
40:07Need I remind you I am the one who brought you here?
40:10I saved you, Kezia.
40:12I saved myself.
40:16Hmm?
40:17Doeg.
40:18I have nothing more to do with you.
40:22Perhaps I speak to the king about the whispers I have.
40:26Perhaps I should speak to him and let you lose your head.
40:31I've stepped beyond your control, Doeg.
40:35Now it is you who owes your life to my whim.
40:41Shame on you.
40:43No.
40:54Oh God.
40:56What?
40:57What?
41:00Oh God.
41:02What?
41:03What?
41:05Oh God.
41:09What?
41:10On your knees Israelites.
41:13No, no.
41:16Get out of here.
41:18I kneel to god, not to man.
41:27Uh.
41:31Not a man.
41:33To the priestess of El, mistress of Baal, sister of Asherah, you will kneel to the witch of Eindor.
41:56What is that?
41:58What is that coming?
42:16And you said you'd never come home.
42:23Hello, Mother.
42:28Tell me, Avner.
42:30Did you think they would lose respect for you?
42:34Or perhaps they would have come to fear you?
42:38I have so many reasons to kill you.
42:43For refusing offerings to our gods.
42:46For sitting beside the king as he outlawed witchcraft.
42:53Or for killing a daughter of Eindor.
42:57To cover the sins of your house.
43:01Yes.
43:02Yes.
43:03Any of these will do.
43:08Ask my son.
43:10And he'll tell you why people truly fear me.
43:16I speak with the dead.
43:20They show me many things.
43:33I am not afraid of your cheap tricks.
43:39Tell me, son of Judah.
43:42Does your conscience still drown in the blood of the innocent family you slaughtered?
43:48I hear their cries.
43:50I hear their cries.
43:51The same ones that haunt you in the night.
44:06Ah.
44:08Son of Saul.
44:10Crown Prince of Israel.
44:15Yet when I look into your future, I see nothing at all.
44:18A life cut short.
44:22How does it feel, Prince?
44:24To know the crown meant for your head will sit on another.
44:29The crown will rest on the one deserving of it.
44:33That is enough for me.
44:45What have you brought here, Avni?
44:49Who are you?
44:51You speak to the dead.
44:53I speak to their creator.
44:57And he sees you.
44:59Through me.
45:01My name is David.
45:05You have great power.
45:09Yet you are weakened by a lie.
45:13When you finally live in the truth.
45:17Woe to the witch or the king who tries to stand in your way.
45:25Your power will break those around you.
45:28And your house will never know peace.
45:35Let them go, all of them.
45:38I do not want their blood on my hands.
45:48But one more thing, Avniil.
45:52One day soon the House of Saul will be defeated.
45:57Not from without.
46:00It will crumble from within.
46:03And you will watch, helpless.
46:07As you draw your last breath.
46:36Very impressive.
46:37An army carrying such weapons will crush the Hebrews.
46:40We will advance beyond the border villages.
46:43And then we will carve up Israel.
46:46Already dividing the spoils of your victory, Akish?
46:50As the dog returns to his vomit.
46:53So the fool repeats his folly.
46:58All of Philistia still bleeds after your last promise of victory.
47:03Then it was giants.
47:06Now you require more swords.
47:09And you want thousands of them.
47:12All paid for at my expense.
47:14Our shared expense.
47:17Exactly how much time and silver will this require?
47:21As long and as much as needed.
47:24I will find my own fortress.
47:27And fight my own wars.
47:31Perhaps against you.
47:35Thank you for this gift.
47:37But I'm no fool.
47:39No?
47:41You're a great and wise king.
47:47Whose time has passed.
47:58Oro!
47:59Dagonor!
48:06Now, young prince.
48:08Would you like to suffer your father's fate?
48:13Or join a new generation of kings?
48:20I will...
48:21I will join you.
48:24Good.
48:25Then you'll have your father's throne.
48:29And one third of Israel.
48:44All hail King Hanun.
48:46All hail King Hanun.
48:56Do not defy me again.
48:58We are both kings.
49:01I've simply removed an obstacle.
49:03He was a king of Philistia.
49:05And now he is no more.
49:10Come Akish, you think too much.
49:16Hm?
49:19No.
49:25heavens.
49:40The
49:47Just know, if you are lying about my daughter, I will kill you, your mother, and your men.
49:57Make a thousand Philistine swords just to spite you all.
50:02You won't get everything you were promised.
50:06Men, hear me.
50:10Hey, everything that witch said is meant to disturb your mind, to sow distrust and chaos in Israel.
50:21Never breathe a word of it to anyone.
50:31We must have words.
50:34Go on.
50:35You're going to stop acting like a fool.
50:39Our brother has been anointed by the seer.
50:42He has proven himself in battle time and again.
50:46And last night, somehow, saved all of our lives from that witch.
50:50Our brother is a danger to himself and to the rest of our family.
50:53No, Ilya.
50:54Your issue is not with David.
50:56It's with yourself.
50:59Open your eyes.
51:01So you don't get to be the hero of a family anymore.
51:05God, too bad.
51:08You know who met David the hero?
51:12God did.
51:21It's blasphemy.
51:23The mere notion of her knowing our destiny.
51:26And yet, if she was able to see the truth about you...
51:29Shh.
51:32I will admit, I worry about my own future.
51:36Jonathan, none of us know what truly lies ahead.
51:41But she was right about one thing.
51:44We must live in our truth.
51:48And that means cherishing the light of each new day.
51:54God grants us no promise of another.
51:58And after all this darkness...
52:06We're right towards the light.
52:14And if there's love to be found...
52:17I must embrace it.
52:19But I still can.
52:20Jonathan.
52:22What are you doing here?
52:26Oh, the truth.
52:28Oh, God.
52:36Oh, God.
52:59What are we going to do now?
53:05My king.
53:07David.
53:10Was the mission successful?
53:12Have you returned with the God of Swords?
53:15We have.
53:17But first, I must speak to you of another matter.
53:20Speak?
53:22I cannot.
53:30I will not marry Mirav.
53:35I do not wish to defy you, but I know the truth.
53:40If she truly loved me and I heard them, then I would obey you.
53:46But I know in my heart we cannot be together.
53:52And if you wish it not that I be with Michal, then so be it.
53:58After all, who am I?
54:01Let I be sent in law to the king.
54:04What are you saying, David?
54:09You choose...
54:11to refuse my command.
54:16I choose to live in the truth.
54:23May the king live forever.
54:28David!
54:37son of Jesse.
54:45Decisions have consequences.
54:51This showed you lies.
54:54God guides a man's destiny.
54:59Do what you must.
55:26Do what you must.
55:49Do what you must.
56:19Do what you must.
56:49Do what you must.
57:19Do what you must.
