2 Samuel 23:2-5

2“The Spirit of the Lord speaks through me; his words are upon my tongue.

3The God of Israel spoke. The Rock of Israel said to me: ‘The one who rules righteously, who rules in the fear of God,

4is like the light of morning at sunrise, like a morning without clouds, like the gleaming of the sun on new grass after rain.’

5“Is it not my family God has chosen? Yes, he has made an everlasting covenant with me. His agreement is arranged and guaranteed in every detail. He will ensure my safety and success.
