Tree of Life Version
2 Samuel 7:4-8
4But it came to pass the same night that the word of Adonai came to Nathan saying:
5“Go, tell My servant David: Thus says Adonai: Are you to build Me a house for Me to dwell in?
6Since the day that I brought up the children of Israel from Egypt to this day I have not dwelt in a house, but have been moving about in a tent, even in a tabernacle.
7In all My journeying among all the children of Israel, did I ever speak a word to any of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to shepherd My people Israel, saying, ‘Why have you not built Me a house of cedar?’
8So now, thus you shall say to My servant David: Thus says Adonai-Tzva’ot: I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, to be ruler over My people, over Israel.
