2 Samuel 7:2-17

2that the kingH4428 saidH559 to 1NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, “SeeH7200 nowH4994, I liveH3427 in 2a houseH1004 of cedarH730, but the arkH727 of GodH430 3remainsH3427 withinH8432 the tentH3407.” 3NathanH5416 saidH559 to the kingH4428, “4GoH1980, doH6213 allH3605 that is in your mindH3824, for the LordH3068 is with you.”

4But in the sameH1931 nightH3915, the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to NathanH5416, sayingH559, 5“GoH1980 and sayH559 to My servantH5650 DavidH1732, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “5Should you buildH1129 Me a houseH1004 for My dwellingH3427? 6For 6I have not dweltH3427 in a houseH1004 sinceH4480 the dayH3117 I broughtH5927 upH5927 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 from EgyptH4714, even to thisH2088 dayH3117; rather, I have beenH1961 movingH1980 aboutH1980 7in a tentH168, that is, in a dwellingH4908 placeH4908. 78WhereverH3605H834 I have goneH1980 with allH3605 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, did I speakH1696 a wordH1697 with oneH259 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, 9whomH834 I commandedH6680 to shepherdH7462 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, sayingH559, ‘WhyH4100 have you not builtH1129 Me a houseH1004 of cedarH730?’”’ 8NowH6258 then, thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 you shall sayH559 to My servantH5650 DavidH1732: ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 saysH559: “10I MyselfH589 tookH3947 you from the pastureH5116, from followingH310 the sheepH6629, 11to be leaderH5057 overH5921 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. 9And 12I have beenH1961 with you whereverH3605H834 you have goneH1980, and 13have eliminatedH3772 allH3605 your enemiesH340 from you; I will also makeH6213 a greatH1419 nameH8034 for you, like the namesH8034 of the greatH1419 menH1419 whoH834 14are on the earthH776. 10And I will establishH7760 a placeH4725 for My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and 15will plantH5193 them, so that they may liveH7931 inH7931 their own placeH8478 and not be disturbedH7264 againH5750, 16norH3808 will 17maliciousH5767 peopleH1121 oppressH6031 them anymoreH3254 as previouslyH7223, 11even 18from the dayH3117 that I appointedH6680 judgesH8199 overH5921 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478; and 19I will giveH5117 you restH5117 from allH3605 your enemiesH340. The LordH3068 also declaresH5046 to you that 20the LordH3068 will makeH6213 a houseH1004 for you. 1221WhenH3588 your daysH3117 are finishedH4390 and you 2223lieH7901 downH7901 with your fathersH1, 24I will raiseH6965 upH6965 your 25descendantH2233 afterH310 you, whoH834 will comeH3318 from 26you, and I will establishH3559 his kingdomH4467. 1327He shall buildH1129 a houseH1004 for My nameH8034, and 28I will establishH3559 the throneH3678 of his kingdomH4467 foreverH5704H5769. 1429I will be a fatherH1 to him and he will be a sonH1121 to Me; 30whenH834 he doesH5753 wrongH5753, I will disciplineH3198 him with a rodH7626 of menH376 and with strokesH5061 of sonsH1121 of mankindH120, 15but My favorH2617 shall not departH5493 from him, 31as I tookH5493 it awayH5493 from SaulH7586, whomH834 I removedH5493 from you. 1632Your houseH1004 and your kingdomH4467 shall endureH539 beforeH6440 33Me foreverH5704H5769; your throneH3678 shall be establishedH3559 foreverH5704H5769.”’” 17In accordance with allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 and allH3605 of thisH2088 visionH2384, soH3651 NathanH5416 spokeH1696 to DavidH1732.
