Connecting Java to SQLite server, basic CRUD functionality.

I am trying to connect my java project to an SQLite database. My end goal is to have methods that will let me Create, Read, Update or Delete records from/to this database.

I have been reading a lot of guides online, but despite a much stronger conceptual understanding of how DAO and SQLite works, I havent been able to build working code so I was hoping someone could help.

package com.rebels.util;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.util.Properties;

public class DBConnect {

public static void main(String args) throws ClassNotFoundException, SQLException {

    Class.forName("org.sqlite.JDBC");

    Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlite:H:/Third Year/Java/RebelDB.s3db");

        try {
            Properties prop = new Properties();
            InputStream inputStream = DbUtil.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("/db.properties");
            prop.load(inputStream);
            String driver = prop.getProperty("driver");
            String url = prop.getProperty("url");
            String user = prop.getProperty("user");
            String password = prop.getProperty("password");
            Class.forName(driver);
            connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password);
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (SQLException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}  

Thanks for your time. I will clarify any questions your might have and greatly appreciate any and all help
