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.
01:28You must be ready for your mastery.
01:28You should also be able to manage the next battle.
01:28You should know David willbulb.
01:29The only fight against me is an Serapalisi.
01:29You will have been in a battle.
01:29I am a king, and David will be among all the guests to save too.
01:30I am a king.
01:30You should be absolutely right there, inside the battle.
01:30I am a king!
01:40You should be with a king, save as you.
01:44The righteous will flourish like a palm tree.
01:50They will grow like a cedar of Lebanon.
01:59Clented 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 can the 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...
04:21often blocks the joy ahead.
04:23Hmm.
04:25So what can be done?
04:29We look forward.
04:35Ambush!
04:45Shields in the center now!
04:49Shield! Shield! Shield!
04:51Where did he come from?
04:52All sides!
04:55They'll hit your brother!
05:01You keep the other one, I'm covered.
05:09Stay down!
05:10Out of arms!
05:17Get off me!
05:19Protect David!
05:24remote, run!
05:34Out of arms!
05:37Out of arms!
05:40Out of arms!
05:42Fire!
05:42Blue!
05:42Out of arms!
05:43Fire!
05:44Out!
05:46Out of arms!
06:15Take this door!
06:18Jonathan!
06:50Die!
06:51Die!
06:51To the team!
06:54It's free!
06:55It's free!
06:56It's free!
06:56It's free!
06:56It's free!
06:59Ha!
07:00It's free!
07:03Who was that?
07:15What?
07:16What?
07:17Raise your sword!
07:26This light is a feather, yet still so strong.
07:31That was my sword.
07:34Are you going to replace it?
07:35Search the dead yourself.
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.
07:55More charcoal that will not make it back to a Philistine forge.
07:58These are demon swords.
08:00David, do you think these swords are cursed?
08:04No, I do not.
08:07Good.
08:08Every time we face these weapons, they are stronger and lighter.
08:13All of Philistia are armed with these.
08:15God is able.
08:19Plus, I have held one far more perfect than this.
08:35It's difficult.
08:37I know.
08:38But it's important.
08:43The writing, writing is how we remember what came before us.
08:50Like the great stories of Jacob, Moses and Noah.
08:56Who knows, maybe one day you will write down such a story.
09:01I would write the story of David, the giant killer.
09:08That would be a very good one.
09:14I wonder how it ends.
09:18Papa!
09:20Papa!
09:23Papa!
09:24Papa!
09:27Papa!
09:28Papa!
09:29Papa!
09:29Papa!
09:30Papa!
09:31Papa!
09:31Papa!
09:33Papa!
09:35Papa!
09:36Papa!
09:37Papa!
09:39Papa!
09:41Papa!
09:41Papa!
09:42Papa!
09:44Papa!
09:48Papa!
09:50Papa!
09:53It 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.
10:27And your son after you.
10:30They are chanting my name.
10:33I have killed my thousands.
10:36David is tens of thousands.
10:38Yes, David.
10:42David.
10:46David.
10:48They will crown our boy today if they could.
10:54He's 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 and everyone in this palace.
11:11My suspicion is a shield to you and your throne.
11:17The sooner you realize that, the better.
11:24David.
11:26David.
11:28David.
11:30David.
11:31David.
11:32David.
11:32David.
11:33David.
11:33David.
11:35David.
11:38David.
11:39David.
11:41David.
11:41David.
11:49David.
11:50David.
11:51David.
11:52David.
11:53David.
11:54David.
11:55David.
11:56David.
11:57David.
11:58David.
11:59David.
12:00David.
12:04It's time to stop fighting over charcoal.
12:07Start forging our own swords to match these.
12:11It must require a great deal of heat to forge weapons of this quality.
12:16Philistines will never sacrifice so many lives raiding our coal mines otherwise.
12:25David swears Goliath's blade is even stronger.
12:29If we're to stand any chance at all, we need that weapon.
12:33The knowledge behind it.
12:35Do you know what became of it?
13:09Greetings, Lord Commander.
13:11What are you doing in the City of the Priests?
13:14You're holding something here.
13:16Something brought here by your father.
13:18I need to see it.
13:20He instructed I reveal it in no one.
13:23So I instructed him.
13:49I've been trying to cipher what is etched on it.
13:52Philistian markings?
13:54Mostly.
13:55But some are much older.
13:58Egyptian, I believe.
14:01God...
14:02Swords?
14:04Perhaps God and Swords?
14:06No.
14:08No, God of Swords.
14:12It's a signature.
14:46It's bad.
14:49It's better.
14:58Good.
15:00There's the lion.
15:08Can I ask you something?
15:10Hmm?
15:12What does it feel like?
15:15To be anointed?
15:18Like Joshua?
15:20Samson?
15:21Where my father was?
15:23Yes.
15:24Your father is anointed.
15:27No, you don't have to explain.
15:29Speak the truth to me.
15:30What does it feel like?
15:39Powerful.
15:41Like fire.
15:44Or a rushing wind.
15:50I become more of something.
15:55Everything I feel is amplified.
15:59Passion.
16:00Joy.
16:02Even rage.
16:06It 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.
16:47No one is.
17:08Hello, princess.
17:09this? David. I heard you were teaching children how to read. Did you want to stop me? You
17:20know how I love words. I miss hearing you sing them. So often I would sit at this very balcony
17:30listening to your morning prayers. Your sister compares it to a rooster. Yes, well, she does
17:38like her sleep. Have a gift for you. I begin writing my own songs, although sometimes
17:55should the words are from... God himself? Yes. I wanted you to have this.
18:16The Lord is my shepherd, and I shall not be in need. He makes me lie down in green pastures.
18:28He leads me by still waters. He restores my soul. It's beautiful, David. I thought I would
18:45write it about a shepherd. It is what I know. And will you write a love song for my sister?
19:00No. I only write what is true.
19:05My wounds, they're still healing. I do not wish to reopen them.
19:12Michal, I... It was good to see you, commando. I praise Adonai you are safe.
19:44You are avoiding me.
19:46You know, the Philistines have no interest in our marriage, blissful or otherwise. There
19:51are more battles I must fight to be worthy of this. Stop, David. You are delaying. You're
19:55making excuses. You've been gone for many seasons defending against our enemies. I've waited
20:00long enough. Look. I understand you still have feelings for my sister. I see it. But Michal
20:09has moved on. She's happier. She's on her own path. And you... You are a bold enough soldier
20:18to know you can't keep marching backwards. So the time has come to honor my father's wishes.
20:27A date must be set. Do you agree?
20:37I am a servant of the canon. Perfect.
20:47When I was in Endor, there was a... There was a man there. A master metal forger. Called
20:55himself the god of swords. Endor. Avner. The witches there, they would perform rituals on his weapons.
21:09But the true power came from his craftsmanship. I believe he has discovered an entirely new
21:15metal. One that would decimate even the finest bronze. My king, we need to find this man.
21:24I believe I can convince him to teach us how to forge these weapons. My army would convince him.
21:31No. If our army marches on Endor, the man will disappear before we ever breach the city gates. This is
21:36not a job for an army.
21:39But a handful of men. In that case, you should not be one of them.
21:45My king.
21:48So.
21:52No one else knows Endor as I do. Yes.
21:57That is my fear.
21:59It is a lawless, godforsaken place.
22:03And with your history there... I know.
22:07It's all in the past, Avner. It is all in my past.
22:14What murders now is the future.
22:17And in order to ensure it, we must find his god of swords.
22:31Jodos is King
22:32I know.
22:32I know.
22:34I know.
22:40I know.
22:45I know.
22:47I know.
23:14Why are you looking at me?
23:17I've noticed. Lately 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. He's clearly with David.
23:47Why are we dressed like merchants, huh?
23:50I think it's time to see the spies.
23:53And is that a problem?
23:55Yes. I make a terrible spy.
24:07I want to look after things here and communicate to her.
24:10Okay.
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.
24:32No, we don't trust him.
24:35But he is useful.
24:37Any animal who attacks on your behalf will one day attack you.
24:43I'm just... I'm worried.
24:45Oh.
24:47Are we doing that now?
24:48What?
24:50Worrying about each other.
24:53Sweet.
24:55Oh, what is this?
24:58Dinner.
24:59Not this.
25:00You look so happy.
25:02It's very upsetting.
25:03I hear you have happy news of your own.
25:05No.
25:06What is this?
25:07David and Maratha set a wedding date.
25:21Congratulations.
25:41The city of Endor.
25:44Refuge for killers, renegades, deserters and criminals.
25:50Be on guard.
25:55Please!
26:00Please!
26:07Please!
26:07Please!
26:08Please!
26:09Please!
26:10Please!
26:10Please!
26:11Please!
26:12Please!
26:12What ever you hear or see, taking stride, do not show offense.
26:17We need to draw as little attention as possible.
26:19No, nothing up here!
26:21You are wrong!
26:21You said you were the white man!
26:24You said you were the white man!
26:29You are my man!
26:31William, Commander, what are we doing here?
26:35We're merchants from Sidon, trying to make a fair profit on our wares.
26:42That's all you need to know, and leave the talking to me.
27:01Music
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?
27:31Looking for a man, blacksmith, the 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.
27:55Twenty-five.
27:56Seventy-five.
27:57Fifty.
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, the fabrics weren't as fancy, but the feelings were softer than the finest
28:51silk.
28:57Are you sure this is what you want?
29:09Are you sure this is what you want?
29:22If I have learned anything from you, it's that love serves no purpose but to make one weak.
29:33That was never the lesson I intended to teach.
29:36Well, I was never that good at listening.
29:40I'm aware.
29:45I wanted to give you something.
29:58So you'll 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.
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.
31:30Except those that have best done.
31:44Put a single shekel on the scales and watch your fortune change.
31:50Tonight, the night, copper turns to silver and silver turns to gold.
31:55Brother, 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.
32:06You're right.
32:07The serpent's are hungry.
32:09It would be conspicuous if we didn't.
32:11Thank you, brother.
32:13I'll double your money.
32:13Play your bets now.
32:15I'm not picking that back, are we?
32:17Definitely not.
32:19Play your final bets and mind your distance.
32:24That's him.
32:26Release the serpent.
32:35I guess.
32:36Oh, I guess.
32:37Come on.
32:39No!
32:40No!
32:45You may be right, you liar.
32:47I may be weak, mind you.
32:50I would have bet on that one, too.
32:53No, you wouldn't.
32:55No.
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?
33:18We'll pay you double, for the Philistines paid for the sword of the giant.
33:21That is a fine sword.
33:24There is none like it.
33:26Indeed.
33:28Come with me.
33:34Come with me.
34:08Come, you come.
34:10Closer.
34:28Iron.
34:30The name itself means hardness and strength.
34:33Why is it so much stronger than bronze?
34:36It's skill.
34:38Higher levels of heat create stronger metal.
34:45If you're making hundreds of these,
34:47I assume it requires a vast amount of fuel.
34:50Charcoal.
34:53The Philistines worship their many gods.
34:56Our people worship one god.
35:00But I worship only this.
35:03This is what decides man's destiny.
35:10I want you to come with us to Gebel.
35:12Teach us how to make these iron weapons by the thousands.
35:17I already escaped the Philistines
35:19because I wasn't interested in being locked in their dungeons.
35:23What makes you think I want to be locked in yours?
35:26Because I know this blade is not all you care about.
35:32Your daughter.
35:35I know she's an Edomite slave.
35:37I know her name.
35:41But, Sheva.
35:44She was taken from you to cover your debts.
35:48I know where you can find her.
35:52Return with us to Gebel.
35:55Teach us how to make these weapons.
36:00Then you'll get to see her face again.
36:06Hmm.
36:09Hmm.
36:12Hmm.
36:14I have it.
36:15Let's go.
36:48Let's go.
37:15He 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...
38:00Your hands...
38:03I've noticed you do that when you're worried.
38:10Do you make a habit of watching every little thing people do?
38:15Only the interesting ones.
38:21It's...
38:21It's David.
38:24I 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.
38:48Yawa.
38:49Will you do something for me?
38:51Anything.
38:54Protect him.
38:58I already am.
39:27He's here.
39:29Dyke.
39:30You shouldn't be here.
39:31You mean in the servants' area?
39:33We all serve someone.
39:36We both seek opportunities.
39:39I just...
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.
39:52And 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, Geysia.
40:13I saved myself.
40:16Hmm?
40:17Dyke.
40:18I have nothing more to do with you.
40:22I have to say, speak to the king about the Whisperer's eyes.
40:26Perhaps I should speak to him and watch you lose your head.
40:31I've stepped beyond your control, Dyke.
40:34Now it is you who owes your life to my whim.
40:41Shame on you.
40:55Oh, God.
41:09On your knees, Israelites.
41:13Oh, God.
41:16Get out here.
41:18I kneel to God, not to man.
41:31Not a man.
41:33To the priestess of Elf, mistress of Baal, sister of Asherah, you will kneel to the Witch of Eindor.
41:56What is that?
41:58What is that?
41:59Come on.
41:59Shh.
42:16And you said you'll never come home.
42:23Hello, Mother.
42:28Tell me, Avnir.
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.
42:47For sitting beside the king as he outlawed witchcraft.
42:52Or for killing a daughter of Eindor.
42:57To cover the sins of your house.
43:01Yes.
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.
43:51The same ones that haunt you in the night.
44:06Ah, son of Saul.
44:10Crown Prince of Israel.
44:14Yet 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
45:19who 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.
45:37I do not want their blood on my hands.
45:48But one more thing, Avnil.
45:53One day soon, the House of Saul will be defeated.
45:57Not from without.
46:00It will crumble from within.
46:02And you will watch, helpless.
46:08As you draw your last breath.
46:35Very impressive.
46:37An army carrying such weapons will crush the Hebrews.
46:41We 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
47:00after 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?
47:20As long and as much as needed.
47:24I will find my own fortress.
47:27And fight my own wars.
47:31Perhaps against you.
47:36Thank 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.
47:59Dagnor!
48:06Now, young prince.
48:08Would you like to suffer your father's fate?
48:11Hmm?
48:13Or join a new generation of kings?
48:17Hmm?
48:18Hmm?
48:20I will... I 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.
48:49All hail King Hanun.
48:56Do not defy me again.
48:59We are both kings.
49:01I've simply removed an obstacle.
49:03He was a king of Philistia.
49:05And now he's no more.
49:10Come Akish, you think too much.
49:17Hm?
49:20I just knew...
49:20I've never happened to me.
49:20No, no.
49:26No, no.
49:26No, no.
49:26No, no.
49:26No, no.
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.
50:11Everything 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.
50:35We are 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, your issue is not with David.
50:56It's with yourself.
50:59Open your eyes so you don't get to be the hero of a family anymore.
51:05Too bad.
51:08You know who made 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.
51:37Jonathan, 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?
52:26I see.
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 Mechal, then so be it.
53:58After all, who am I?
54:01Let I be son of law to the king.
54:04What are you saying, David?
54:08David, you choose to 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.
54:51So do lies.
54:54God guides a man's destiny.
54:59Do what you must.
55:01Do what you must.
55:28Don't listen.
