Exegesis
The prepositional phrase lə·me·leḵ {לְמֶלֶךְ | lə·me·leḵ} ‘for king’ with ‘al {עַל | ‘al} ‘over’ attaches to Yiśra’ēl {יִשְׂרָאֵל | yiś·rā·’ēl} as object of dominion.
In context — 1 Chronicles 14:2
And David knew that the LORD had established him as king over Israel, for his kingdom had been exalted on high for the sake of his people Israel.
