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.
01:25That is a risk for David to rescue him, and will worship his team.
01:27Be silent.
01:28It is the most evil that we have to hold his arm through his family.
01:28Let's kill him.
01:31No!
01:31No!
01:31No!
01:32No!
01:33No!
01:33No!
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.
03:02Do 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 on in 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.
04:17The pain behind us, it often blocks the joy ahead.
04:25So what can be done?
04:29We look forward.
04:35Ambush!
04:36Ambush!
04:37Ambush!
04:48Ambush!
04:51Where did he come from?
04:52All sides!
04:53Artists only!
04:55They'll hit your brother!
05:01You give the other one, I'm covered.
05:09Stay down!
05:10Aros!
05:17Get off me!
05:19Protect David!
05:22Go on!
05:38Let's run!
05:40Let's run!
05:41No! No!
06:11No!
06:15Take the sword!
06:19Jonathan!
06:41No!
06:47No!
06:49No!
06:49No!
06:50No!
06:51No!
06:53No!
06:55No!
06:58Ha!
07:02Who was that?
07:05No!
07:15What?
07:16What?
07:17Raise your sword.
07:20No.
07:26His light is a feather.
07:29Yet still so strong.
07:31That... that was my sword.
07:33Are you going to replace it?
07:35Search the dead yourself.
07:37I 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.
07:55More charcoal that will not make it back to a Philistine forge.
07:58These are demon swords.
08:01David.
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.
08:13All of Philistia are armed with these.
08:15God is able.
08:19Plus, I have held one far more perfect than this.
08:34It's difficult.
08:37I know.
08:38But it's important.
08:44But writing...
08:46Writing...
08:47Writing...
08:47Writing is how we remember what came before us.
08:50Like the great stories of...
08:53Jacob...
08:54Moses...
08:55and Noah.
08:56Who knows?
08:57Maybe one day, you will write down such a story.
09:00Hm?
09:01I would write the story of David.
09:03The giant killer.
09:08That would be a very good one.
09:14I wonder how it ends.
09:30It's difficult to attack you,
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?
10:08David! David! David! David!
10:11Surely you wouldn't have come all the way to this side of the palace if you didn't.
10:16David! David! David! David! David! David! David!
10:24It is your name they should be chanting. And your son after you.
10:30They are chanting my name. I 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!
11:31David, David, David!
11:32David!
11:33David, David, David!
11:33David, David, David .
11:33Our hero returns.
11:35More victories, I'm told.
11:38David.
11:39We have much to discuss.
11:41We are badly in need of a wedding plan.
11:44Yes, but another time.
11:45Please, I would love to take my rest.
11:47Yes, of course.
11:49Of course.
12:04It's time to stop fighting over charcoal.
12:07Stop 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?
12:38Do you know what became of it?
12:39Do you know what became of it?
12:58Do you know what became of it?
12:59Do you know any chances of it?
12:59Do you know what became of it?
12:59It must.
12:59Let's go.
13:00Do 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.
13:52Philistine markings?
13:54Mostly.
13:55But some are much older.
13:57Egyptian, I believe.
14:02God...
14:03Swartz?
14:03Perhaps God and Swords?
14:06No.
14:08No, God of Swords.
14:12It's a signature.
14:33Thank you, Han.
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, where my father was?
15:23Yes.
15:24Your father is anointed.
15:27No, you don't have to explain.
15:29Speak the truth to me.
15:31What does it feel like?
15:39Powerful.
15:41Like fire.
15:44Or a rushing wind.
15:50I become more of...
15:52I become more of...
15:53Something.
15:55Everything 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...
16:46As it should have.
17:08Hello, princess.
17:12David.
17:13I heard you were teaching children how to read.
17:17And so you want to stop me?
17:19You know how I love words.
17:24I miss hearing you sing them.
17:27So often I would sit at this very balcony...
17:30Listening to your morning prayers.
17:33Your sister compares it to a rooster.
17:36Yes, well...
17:37She does like her sleep.
17:41Have a gift for you.
17:50I begin writing my own songs.
17:53Although sometimes...
17:54I feel the words are from...
17:57God himself?
17:58Yes.
18:02I wanted you to have this.
18:16The Lord is my shepherd.
18:20And I shall not be in need.
18:24He makes me lie down in green pastures.
18:28He leads me by still waters.
18:33He restores my soul.
18:42It's beautiful, David.
18:45I thought I would write it about a shepherd.
18:47It is what I know.
18:54And will you write a love song for my sister?
19:00I only write what is true.
19:05My wounds...
19:06They're still healing.
19:09I do not wish to reopen them.
19:12Michal, I...
19:13It was good to see you.
19:15Commander.
19:16Commander.
19:18I praise Adonai you are safe.
19:44You'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.
19:53Stop, David.
19:53You are delaying.
19:55You're making excuses.
19:56You've been gone for many seasons defending against our enemies.
19:59I've waited long enough.
20:01Look.
20:03I understand you still have feelings for my sister.
20:06I see it.
20:08But Michal has moved on.
20:11She's happier.
20:12She's on her own path.
20:14And you...
20:16You are a bold enough soldier to know you can't keep merchants.
20:20And you are marching backwards.
20:22So the time has come to honor my father's wishes.
20:27A date must be set.
20:31Do you agree?
20:37I am a servant of the king.
20:41Perfect.
20:47When I was in Endor, there was a...
20:49There was a man there.
20:52Master of metal forger.
20:55Called himself the god of swords.
20:59Endor.
21:01Avner.
21:04The witches 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.
21:48It's all.
21:52No one else knows Endor as I do.
21:54Yes.
21:57That is my fear.
21:59It is a lawless, godforsaken place.
22:03And with your history there...
22:04I know.
22:07It's all in the past, Avner.
22:09It 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.
22:21Yes.
23:14Why are you looking at me?
23:15him i've noticed lately you seem to be fighting more than the enemy and who else would i be fighting
23:26you wrestle with god like jacob in all stories god yes yes i would fight him

28:06Lord Commander of Israel.
28:09Your mother must be so proud.
28:17Never mention my family again.
28:22I take us to the God of Souls, and as you do,
28:25you will tell me everything you know about him.
28:29Follow me.
28:42I remember when I chose my dress,
28:45the fabrics weren't as fancy,
28:48but the feelings were softer than the finest silk.
28:57Are you sure this is what you want?
29:01Of course. Why wouldn't I?
29:05Marriage for power and status without emotion
29:10can come at significant cost.
29:12You seem to be enduring it with ease.
29:14With ease?
29:17Not with ease.
29:19You know, Mother,
29:22if I have learned anything from you,
29:25it's that love
29:29serves no purpose but to make one weak.
29:34That was never the lesson I intended to teach.
29:37Well, I was never that good at listening.
29:40I'm aware.
29:45I wanted to give you something.
29:58So you know that I am always with you.
30:03It's beautiful.
30:06You like it.
30:07I love it.
30:11I respect your decision.
30:14But if this is your choice,
30:17you must be hardened with resolve.
30:22You will never have the luxury of tears.
30:28Never.
30:40And I do love you, Father.
30:42Still.
30:46Still.
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.
31:44Put a single shekel on the scales
31:47and watch your fortune change.
31:50Tonight, the night,
31:51copper turns to silver
31:52and silver turns to gold!
31:55Brother,
31:57this is the greatest day of my life.
32:01Have a shekel?
32:03No.
32:04The last time we gambled,
32:05you lost my horse.
32:05Brother!
32:08Too 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?
32:16Definitely not.
32:18Place your final bet
32:20and mind your distance!
32:24That's him.
32:26Release the serpent!
32:34Yes, oh yes.
32:37Come on.
32:38No!
32:39No!
32:41No!
32:43Aye.
32:45You may be right, you liar.
32:47I may be weak-minded.
32:50I would have bet on that one, too.
32:53No, you wouldn't.
32:55No.
32:56No!
32:57Go!
32:59Get out 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
33:18For the Philistines paid for the sword of the giant
33:21That was a fine sword
33:24There is none like it
33:26Indeed
33:28Come with me
33:56Come with me
34:08Come, you come
34:10Closer
34:28Iron
34:29The name itself means hardness and strength
34:33Why is it so much stronger than bronze?
34:36It's skill
34:38Higher levels of heat
34:39Create stronger metal
34:41If you're making hundreds of these
34:46This human 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
35:02This is what decides man's destiny
35:10I want you to come with us to Geber
35:13Teach us how to make these iron weapons
35:15By 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 Edamite slave
35:37I know her name
35:40I know her name
35:41But Sheva
35:44She was taken from you
35:45To cover your debts
35:48I know where you can find her
35:52Return with us to Geber
35:55Teach us how to make these weapons
36:00Then you'll get to see her face again
36:14I have it
36:29Watch out
36:31Watch out
36:39No, no, no
36:53No
36:54No
37:12You're off you didn't you didn't ride out with us now. He ordered me to stay
37:19Avner and I we've had some discord of late and I also heard you were offering reading lessons
37:28but you already read. Good point. Well you may say I've wasted a trip
37:44what is bothering you? What do you mean? Nothing. What do you mean? Forgive me princess but
38:00your hands I've noticed you do that when you're worried
38:10to make a habit of watching every little thing people do. Only the interesting ones
38:21it's it's David I worry whenever he leaves
38:28you do realize he's about to marry your sister they've set a wedding date have they not
38:35I can't help it. He has my heart. I fear he always will.
38:48Joa will you do something for me? Anything. Protect him. I already am.
39:27Joa?
39:29Joa?
39:29Joa?
39:30Joa?
39:30Joa?
39:30you shouldn't be here you mean in the servants area we all serve someone we both seek opportunities
39:42you seem unwell shall i summon guard i need to know how the king cured himself of his curse
39:52and how would i know that there are no secrets in this palace that do not find my ears
40:01i can't help you can't can't or won't need i remind you i am the one who brought you here
40:11i saved you i saved myself
40:17like i have nothing more to do with you
40:22perhaps i speak to the king about the whisper size perhaps i should speak to him and
40:29but you lose your head i've stepped beyond your control now it is you who owes your life to my
40:38whim
40:41i have nothing more to do with you
40:42shame on you
40:55oh god
40:56oh god
41:09On your knees, Israelites.
41:16Get out here.
41:18I kneel to God, not to 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?
41:59Come on.
41:59Shh.
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.
42:47For sitting beside the king as he outlawed witchcraft.
42:52Or for killing a daughter of Endor.
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.
43:41Father.
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.
44:08Son of Saul.
44:10Crown Prince of Israel.
44:15The crown.
44:15Yet when I look into your future I see nothing at all.
44:18The 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?
44:50You speak to the dead.
44:53I speak to their creator.
44:56And he sees you.
44:59Through me.
45:01My name is David.
45:05You have great power.
45:09Yet you are nickened 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.
45:36Let them go, all of them.
45:38I do not want their blood on my hands.
45:48But one more thing, Avni.
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.
46:08As 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.
47:58Dagen OnRoy.
48:04Dagen OnRoy.
48:06Now, young prince.
48:08Would you like to suffer your fathers' fate?
48:13Or join a new generation of kings.
48:20I was I was joining you good then you'll have your father's throne and one-third of Israel
48:44All hail King Hanun all hail King Hanun
48:56Do not defy me again we are both kings
49:01I've simply removed an obstacle
49:03He was a king of Philistia and now he's no more
49:10Come Achish you think too much
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
50:07Men hear me
50:11Everything that witch said is meant to disturb your mind
50:16To 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'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
50:47Somehow
50:48Saved 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
50:57Yeah
50:59Open your eyes
51:01So you don't get to be the hero of a family anymore
51:05Too bad
51:08You know who met David the hero?
51:12God did
51:21It's blasphemy
51:23Mere notion of her knowing our destiny
51:26And yet if she was able to see the truth about you
51:28Shh
51:32I will admit
51:34I worry about my own future
51:36Jonathan
51:37None 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'll ride towards the light
52:14We'll ride towards the light
52:14And if there's love to be found
52:17I must embrace it
52:18But I still can
52:20Jonathan
52:22What are you doing here?
52:37God bless you
52:40Who might know what?
52:45There we go
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 shown in law to the king.
54:04What are you saying, David?
54:08You choose to refuse my command.
54:16I choose to live in the truth.
54:23May the king live forever.
54:27David!
54:31David!
54:37Son of Jesse.
54:46Decisions have consequences
54:51So do lies
54:54God guides a man's destiny
54:58Do what you must
55:14Do what you must
56:06Do what you must
56:09Do what you must
56:39Do what you must
57:09Do what you must
