to pass, when the king sat in his house, and the
LORD
had
given him
rest round about from all his enemies ;
And it cometh
to pass, when the king sat in his house, and Jehovah
hath
given rest to
him
round about ,
from all his enemies ,
That the king said
unto Nathan the prophet, See now
, I dwell
in an
house of cedar
, but
the ark of God dwelleth
within
curtains
.
that the king saith
unto Nathan the prophet, `
See, I pray
thee,
I
am
dwelling
in a
house of cedars
, and
the ark of God is
dwelling
in
the
midst
of
the
curtain
. '
And Nathan said
to
the king, Go,
do
all that is in thine heart ;
for the
LORD
is with thee.
And Nathan saith
unto
the king, `
All that `
is '
in thine heart --
go,
do,
for Jehovah
`
is '
with thee. '
And it came
to pass that night, that the word of the
LORD
came
unto Nathan, saying,
And it cometh
to pass in
that night, that the word of Jehovah
is
unto Nathan, saying,
Go and tell
my servant David, Thus saith
the
LORD
, Shalt
thou build me an
house for me
to
dwell
in?
`
Go ,
and thou
hast
said
unto
My servant ,
unto
David, Thus said
Jehovah
, Dost
thou build for
Me a
house for My
dwelling
in?
Whereas
I have not dwelt in any
house since
the time
that
I
brought
up the children
of Israel out of Egypt, even to
this day, but
have
walked
in a tent and in a tabernacle.
for
I have not dwelt in a
house even
from
the day
of
My
bringing
up the sons
of Israel out of Egypt, even unto
this day, and
am
walking
up
and
down
in a tent and in a tabernacle.
In
all the places
wherein
I have walked with
all the children
of Israel spake
I
a word with any
of the tribes of Israel ,
whom
I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, Why build
ye not me an
house of cedar
?
During
all `
the time'
that
I have walked up
and
down
among
all the sons
of Israel ,
a word have
I
spoken
with one
of the tribes of Israel which
I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, `
Why have
ye not built
to
Me a
house of cedars
?
Now therefore
so
shalt
thou say unto
my servant David
, Thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts, I took
thee from the sheepcote
, from following
the sheep
, to be ruler
over my people, over Israel :
and
now ,
thus
dost
thou say to
My servant, to
David:
`
Thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts, I have
taken
thee from the comely
place
, from after
the flock
, to be leader
over My people, over Israel ;
And I was
with thee whithersoever thou wentest
, and have
cut off all thine enemies out
of
thy sight
, and have made thee a great name, like
unto
the name of the great men
that
are in the earth .
and I am
with thee whithersoever thou hast
gone
, and I
cut off all thine enemies from
thy presence
, and have made for
thee a great name, as
the name of the great ones
who
`
are '
in the earth ,
Moreover
I will
appoint
a place for my people Israel, and will
plant
them
, that
they
may
dwell
in a
place of
their
own
, and move
no
more ;
neither
shall
the children
of wickedness
afflict them
any more, as beforetime
,
and
I have
appointed
a place for My people ,
for
Israel, and have
planted
it
, and
it
hath
tabernacled
in its
place, and it
is
not
troubled
any
more ,
and
the sons
of perverseness
do
not
add
to
afflict it
any more, as in
the
beginning
,
And
as
since
the time
that I commanded
judges to
be
over my people Israel ,
and have caused
thee
to
rest from all thine enemies .
Also
the
LORD
telleth
thee that he
will
make thee an
house.
even
from
the day
that I appointed
judges over My people Israel ;
and I
have given
rest to
thee
from all thine enemies ,
and
Jehovah
hath
declared
to
thee that Jehovah
doth
make for
thee a
house.
And
when thy days be
fulfilled
, and thou shalt
sleep
with thy fathers, I will
set
up thy seed after thee ,
which shall
proceed
out of
thy bowels, and I
will
establish
his kingdom .
`
When thy days are
full
, and thou hast
lain
with thy fathers, then
I have
raised
up thy seed after thee which goeth
out from
thy bowels, and have
established
his kingdom ;
He shall
build an
house for my name, and I will
stablish
the throne of his kingdom for
ever
.
He doth
build a
house for My Name, and I have
established
the throne of his kingdom unto
the
age
.
I will
be
his
father, and he shall
be
my
son .
If
he
commit
iniquity,
I will
chasten
him
with the
rod of men, and with the
stripes
of the children
of men:
I am
to
him
for
a
father, and he is
to
Me
for
a
son ;
whom
in
his
dealings
perversely
I have
even
reproved
with a
rod of men, and with strokes
of the sons
of Adam,
But
my mercy
shall
not depart
away
from him, as I took
it from Saul, whom I put
away
before thee .
and
My kindness
doth
not turn
aside
from him, as I turned
it aside
from Saul, whom I turned
aside
from
before thee ,
And thine
house and thy kingdom shall
be
established
for
ever
before thee :
thy throne shall
be
established for
ever
.
and stedfast
`is'
thy
house and thy kingdom unto
the
age
before thee ,
thy throne is
established unto
the
age
. '
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did
Nathan speak
unto David.
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spake
Nathan unto David.
Then
went
king David in ,
and sat
before the
LORD
, and he
said
, Who am I, O
Lord GOD
? and what is
my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
And
king David cometh
in and sitteth
before Jehovah
, and saith
, `
Who `
am '
I, Lord Jehovah
? and what my house, that Thou hast brought me hitherto?
And this
was
yet a
small
thing
in thy
sight
, O
Lord GOD;
but
thou hast
spoken
also of thy servant's
house
for
a
great
while
to
come.
And is
this the manner
of man, O
Lord GOD?
And yet this
`is'
little
in Thine
eyes
, Lord Jehovah,
and
Thou dost
speak
also concerning
the
house
of Thy servant
afar
off;
and this `is'
the law
of the
Man, Lord Jehovah.
And what can
David say
more unto thee? for
thou, Lord
GOD,
knowest
thy servant.
And what doth
David add
more to
speak
unto Thee? and
Thou, Thou
hast
known
Thy servant ,
Lord
Jehovah
.
For
thy word's
sake
, and according to thine
own
heart, hast
thou done all these
great
things
, to make
thy servant know them
.
Because
of
Thy word
, and according to Thy
heart, Thou hast
done all this
greatness
, to cause
Thy servant to
know `it'
.
Wherefore
thou art
great, O
LORD
God :
for there is none like thee, neither
is
there any
God beside
thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
Therefore
Thou hast
been
great, Jehovah
God ,
for there is none like Thee, and
there is
no
God save
Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
And what
one
nation
in
the
earth
is like
thy people, even
like
Israel, whom God went
to redeem for a people to
himself
, and to make him a name ,
and to do for you great
things and
terrible,
for thy land, before
thy people, which
thou redeemedst
to thee from
Egypt ,
from
the nations and their gods?
`
And who
`
is '
as
Thy people, as
Israel --
one
nation
in
the
earth
, whom God hath
gone
to redeem to
Him
for a people, and to make for
Him a name --
and to do for you the
greatness
--
even
fearful
things for Thy land, at
the
presence
of
Thy people, whom
Thou hast
redeemed
to Thee out
of
Egypt --
`among
the '
nations and their gods?
For
thou hast
confirmed
to thyself
thy people Israel to be
a people unto thee
for
ever:
and thou, LORD
, art
become
their
God.
Yea,
Thou dost
establish
to Thee
Thy people Israel ,
to Thee
for
a people unto the
age,
and Thou, Jehovah
, hast
been
to
them
for
God.
And now, O
LORD
God, the word that
thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, establish it
for
ever
, and do as thou hast said.
`
And now, Jehovah
God, the word which
Thou hast spoken concerning Thy servant, and concerning his house, establish unto
the
age
, and do as Thou hast spoken;
And let
thy name be
magnified
for
ever
, saying, The
LORD
of hosts is the
God over Israel :
and let
the house of thy servant David be
established before thee .
And Thy Name is
great
unto
the
age
, saying, Jehovah
of Hosts `
is '
God over Israel ,
and the house of Thy servant David is
established before Thee ,
For thou, O
LORD
of hosts, God of Israel, hast revealed
to
thy servant, saying, I will
build thee an
house:
therefore hath thy servant found in
his heart to pray this
prayer
unto thee .
For Thou, Jehovah
of Hosts, God of Israel, Thou
hast uncovered
the
ear
of
Thy servant, saying, A
house
I build for
thee ,
therefore hath Thy servant found his heart to pray unto Thee this
prayer;
And now, O
Lord GOD
, thou art that
God, and thy words be
true
, and thou hast
promised
this
goodness
unto thy servant :
And now, Lord Jehovah
, Thou `
art '
God Himself
, and Thy words are
truth
, and Thou speakest
unto Thy servant this
goodness,
Therefore
now let
it
please
thee
to
bless the house of thy servant, that
it
may
continue
for
ever
before thee :
for thou, O
Lord GOD
, hast spoken it:
and with
thy blessing let
the house of thy servant be
blessed for
ever
.
And
now ,
begin
and
bless the house of Thy servant, to
be
unto
the
age
before Thee ,
for Thou, Lord Jehovah
, hast spoken ,
and by
Thy blessing is
the house of Thy servant blessed --
to
the
age
. '
