1 Chronicles 17:7-14
7NowH6258, therefore, thusH3541 shall you sayH559 to My servantH5650 DavidH1732, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, “I tookH3947 you from the pastureH5116, from followingH310 the sheepH6629, to be leaderH5057 overH5921 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. 8I have beenH1961 with you whereverH3605H834 you have goneH1980, and have cutH3772 offH3772 allH3605 your enemiesH340 from beforeH6440 you; and I will makeH6213 you a nameH8034 like the nameH8034 of the greatH1419 onesH1419 whoH834 are in the earthH776. 9I will appointH7760 a placeH4725 for My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and will plantH5193 them, so that they may dwellH7931 in their own placeH8478 and not be movedH7264 againH5750; and the 1wickedH5767H1121 will not wasteH1086 them anymoreH3254 as formerlyH7223, 10even from the dayH3117 that I commandedH6680 judgesH8199 to be overH5921 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. And I will subdueH3665 allH3605 your enemiesH340.
Moreover, I tellH5046 you that the LordH3068 will buildH1129 a houseH1004 for you. 11WhenH3588 your daysH3117 are fulfilledH4390 that you must goH1980 to be with your fathersH1, that I will setH6965 up one of your 2descendantsH2233 afterH310 you, whoH834 will be of your sonsH1121; and I will establishH3559 his kingdomH4438. 12He shall buildH1129 for Me a houseH1004, and I will establishH3559 his throneH3678 foreverH5704H5769. 133I will be his fatherH1 and he shall be My sonH1121; and I will not takeH5493 My lovingkindnessH2617 awayH5493 from him, 4as I tookH5493 it from him whoH834 was beforeH6440 you. 14But I will settleH3427 him in My houseH1004 and in My kingdomH4438 foreverH5704H5769, and his throneH3678 shall be establishedH3559 foreverH5704H5769.”’”
