For so ioined they the selues vnto me, whan I fled before thy brother Absalom. 8 And beholde, thou hast with the Semei the sonne of Gera the sonne of Iemini of Bahurim, which cursed me with very bytter and shamefull cursynges, what tyme as I wente to Mahanaim. Yet came he downe to mete me at Iordan, where I sware vnto him by the LORDE, and sayde: I wyll not slaye the with the swerde. 9 But suffre not thou him to be vngiltye, for thou art a wyse man, and shalt wel knowe what thou oughtest to do vnto him, that thou mayest brynge his graye heer downe to the graue with bloude. 10 So Dauid slepte with his fathers, and was buried in the cite of Dauid.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the days that David reigned over Israel [were] forty years,.... So says Eupolemus s, an Heathen writer, which are thus reckoned:
seven years reigned he in Hebron; the six months over are omitted, 2 Samuel 5:5; this part of his reign was over Judah only:
and thirty three years reigned he in Jerusalem; over the twelve tribes, in all forty, which round number is only given; though in fact he reigned six months more.
s Apud Euseb. Praepar. Evangel. l. 9. c. 30.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Forty years - In all forty years and six months. See 2 Samuel 5:5, and 1 Chronicles 3:4. The Jewish writers almost universally omit the fractions of a year.
