2 Samuel 7:7-12

7In all my goingH1980 about with all the children of IsraelH3478, did I speakH1696 a wordH1697 with any of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, whom I commandedH6680 to feedH7462 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, sayingH559, WhyH4100 buildH1129 ye me not a houseH1004 of cedarsH730?

8And nowH6258, thusH3541 shalt thou sayH559 unto my servantH5650 DavidH1732, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: I tookH3947 thee from the pasture-grounds, from following the sheepH6629, to beH1961 princeH5057 over my peopleH5971, over IsraelH3478;

9and I have beenH1961 with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cutH3772 off all thine enemiesH341 from before thee, and have madeH6213 thee a greatH1419 nameH8034, like unto the nameH8034 of the greatH1419 men that are on the earthH776.

10And I will appointH7760 a placeH4725 for my peopleH5971, for IsraelH3478, and will plantH5193 them, that they may dwellH7931 in a placeH4725 of their own, and be disturbed no more; neither shall the sonsH1121 of wickedness afflictH6031 them any more, as formerly,

11and since the time that I commandedH6680 judgesH8199 to be over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. And I have givenH5117 thee restH5117 from all thine enemiesH341; and Jehovah telleth thee that Jehovah will makeH6213 thee a houseH1004.

12When thy daysH3117 are fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathersH1, I will setH6965 up thy seedH2233 after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowelsH4578, and I will establishH6965 his kingdomH4467.
