2 Samuel 23:2-5
2The SpiritH7307 of YhwhH3068 spakeH1696 by me, and his wordH4405 was in my tongueH3956.
3The GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, the RockH6697 of IsraelH3478 spakeH1696 to me, He that rulethH4910 over menH120 must be justH6662, rulingH4910 in the fearH3374 of GodH430.1
4And he shall be as the lightH216 of the morningH1242, when the sunH8121 risethH2224, even a morningH1242 withoutH3808 cloudsH5645; as the tender grassH1877 springing out of the earthH776 by clear shiningH5051 after rainH4306.
5Although my houseH1004 be not so with GodH410; yet he hath madeH7760 with me an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285, orderedH6186 in all things, and sureH8104: for this is all my salvationH3468, and all my desireH2656, although he make it not to growH6779.
