Now it came to pass, as DavidH1732 satH3427 in his houseH1004, that DavidH1732 saidH559 to NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, Lo, I dwellH3427 in an houseH1004 of cedarsH730, but the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 remaineth under curtainsH3407.
Then NathanH5416 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, DoH6213 all that is in thine heartH3824; for GodH430 is with thee.
And it came to pass the same nightH3915, that the wordH1697 of GodH430 came to NathanH5416, sayingH559,
GoH3212 and tellH559 DavidH1732 my servantH5650, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Thou shalt not buildH1129 me an houseH1004 to dwell inH3427:
For I have not dwelt inH3427 an houseH1004 since the dayH3117 that I brought upH5927 IsraelH3478 unto this dayH3117; but have gone from tentH168 to tentH168, and from one tabernacleH4908 to another. {have gone: Heb. have been}
Wheresoever I have walkedH1980 with all IsraelH3478, spakeH1696 I a wordH1697 to anyH259 of the judgesH8199 of IsraelH3478, whom I commandedH6680 to feedH7462 my peopleH5971, sayingH559, Why have ye not builtH1129 me an houseH1004 of cedarsH730?
Now therefore thus shalt thou sayH559 unto my servantH5650 DavidH1732, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, I tookH3947 thee from the sheepcoteH5116, even from followingH310 the sheepH6629, that thou shouldest be rulerH5057 over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478: {from following: Heb. from after}
And I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast walkedH1980, and have cut offH3772 all thine enemiesH341 from beforeH6440 thee, and have madeH6213 thee a nameH8034 like the nameH8034 of the great menH1419 that are in the earthH776.
Also I will ordainH7760 a placeH4725 for my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and will plantH5193 them, and they shall dwellH7931 in their place, and shall be movedH7264 no more; neither shall the childrenH1121 of wickednessH5766 wasteH1086 them any moreH3254, as at the beginningH7223,
And since the timeH3117 that I commandedH6680 judgesH8199 to be over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. Moreover I will subdueH3665 all thine enemiesH341. Furthermore I tellH5046 thee that the LORDH3068 will buildH1129 thee an houseH1004.
And it shall come to pass, when thy daysH3117 be expiredH4390 that thou must goH3212 to be with thy fathersH1, that I will raise upH6965 thy seedH2233 afterH310 thee, which shall be of thy sonsH1121; and I will establishH3559 his kingdomH4438.
He shall buildH1129 me an houseH1004, and I will stablishH3559 his throneH3678 forH5704 everH5769.
I will be his fatherH1, and he shall be my sonH1121: and I will not takeH5493 my mercyH2617 awayH5493 from him, as I tookH5493 it from him that was beforeH6440 thee:
But I will settleH5975 him in mine houseH1004 and in my kingdomH4438 for everH5769: and his throneH3678 shall be establishedH3559 forH5704 evermoreH5769.
According to all these wordsH1697, and according to all this visionH2377, so did NathanH5416 speakH1696 unto DavidH1732.
And DavidH1732 the kingH4428 cameH935 and satH3427 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, Who am I, O LORDH3068 GodH430, and what is mine houseH1004, that thou hast broughtH935 me hithertoH1988?
And yet this was a small thingH6994 in thine eyesH5869, O GodH430; for thou hast also spokenH1696 of thy servant'sH5650 houseH1004 for a great while to comeH7350, and hast regardedH7200 me according to the estateH8448 of a manH120 of high degreeH4609, O LORDH3068 GodH430.
What canH3254 DavidH1732 speak moreH3254 to thee for the honourH3519 of thy servantH5650? for thou knowestH3045 thy servantH5650.
O LORDH3068, for thy servant'sH5650 sake, and according to thine own heartH3820, hast thou doneH6213 all this greatnessH1420, in making knownH3045 all these great thingsH1420. {great…: Heb. greatnesses}
O LORDH3068, there is none like thee, neither is there any GodH430 besideH2108 thee, according to all that we have heardH8085 with our earsH241.
And what oneH259 nationH1471 in the earthH776 is like thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, whom GodH430 wentH1980 to redeemH6299 to be his own peopleH5971, to makeH7760 thee a nameH8034 of greatnessH1420 and terriblenessH3372, by driving outH1644 nationsH1471 from beforeH6440 thy peopleH5971, whom thou hast redeemedH6299 out of EgyptH4714?
For thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 didst thou makeH5414 thine own peopleH5971 forH5704 everH5769; and thou, LORDH3068, becamest their GodH430.
Therefore now, LORDH3068, let the thingH1697 that thou hast spokenH1696 concerning thy servantH5650 and concerning his houseH1004 be establishedH539 forH5704 everH5769, and doH6213 as thou hast saidH1696.
Let it even be establishedH539, that thy nameH8034 may be magnifiedH1431 forH5704 everH5769, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, even a GodH430 to IsraelH3478: and let the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 thy servantH5650 be establishedH3559 beforeH6440 thee.
For thou, O my GodH430, hast toldH1540+H241 thy servantH5650 that thou wilt buildH1129 him an houseH1004: therefore thy servantH5650 hath foundH4672 in his heart to prayH6419 beforeH6440 thee. {hast…: Heb. hast revealed the ear of thy servant}
And now, LORDH3068, thou art GodH430, and hast promisedH1696 this goodnessH2896 unto thy servantH5650:
Now therefore let it pleaseH2974 thee to blessH1288 the houseH1004 of thy servantH5650, that it may be beforeH6440 thee for everH5769: for thou blessestH1288, O LORDH3068, and it shall be blessedH1288 for everH5769. {let…: or, it hath pleased thee}

And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was hotH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he deliveredH5414 them into the handsH3027 of spoilersH8154 that spoiledH8155 them, and he soldH4376 them into the handsH3027 of their enemiesH341 round aboutH5439, so that they couldH3201 not any longerH5750 standH5975 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341.
Whithersoever they went outH3318, the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was against them for evilH7451, as the LORDH3068 had saidH1696, and as the LORDH3068 had swornH7650 unto them: and they were greatlyH3966 distressedH3334.
Nevertheless the LORDH3068 raised upH6965 judgesH8199, which deliveredH3467 them out of the handH3027 of those that spoiledH8154 them. {delivered: Heb. saved}
And yet they would not hearkenH8085 unto their judgesH8199, but they went a whoringH2181 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430, and bowedH7812 themselves unto them: they turnedH5493 quicklyH4118 out of the wayH1870 which their fathersH1 walked inH1980, obeyingH8085 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068; but they didH6213 not so.
And when the LORDH3068 raisedH6965 them up judgesH8199, then the LORDH3068 was with the judgeH8199, and deliveredH3467 them out of the handH3027 of their enemiesH341 all the daysH3117 of the judgeH8199: for it repentedH5162 the LORDH3068 becauseH6440 of their groaningsH5009 by reason of them that oppressedH3905 them and vexedH1766 them.
Thou hast also givenH5414 me the necksH6203 of mine enemiesH341; that I might destroyH6789 them that hateH8130 me.
They criedH7768, but there was none to saveH3467 them: even unto the LORDH3068, but he answeredH6030 them not.
Then did I beatH7833 them small as the dustH6083 beforeH6440 the windH7307: I did cast them outH7324 as the dirtH2916 in the streetsH2351.
Thou hast deliveredH6403 me from the strivingsH7379 of the peopleH5971; and thou hast madeH7760 me the headH7218 of the heathenH1471: a peopleH5971 whom I have not knownH3045 shall serveH5647 me.
As soon as they hearH8088+H241 of me, they shall obeyH8085 me: the strangersH1121+H5236 shall submitH3584 themselves unto me. {As soon…: Heb. At the hearing of the ear} {submit…: or, yield feigned obedience} {strangers: Heb. sons of the stranger}
The strangersH1121+H5236 shall fade awayH5034, and be afraidH2727 out of their close placesH4526. {strangers: Heb. sons of the stranger}
The LORDH3068 livethH2416; and blessedH1288 be my rockH6697; and let the GodH430 of my salvationH3468 be exaltedH7311.
It is GodH410 that avengethH5414+H5360 me, and subduethH1696 the peopleH5971 under me. {avengeth: Heb. giveth avengements for} {subdueth: or, destroyeth}
He deliverethH6403 me from mine enemiesH341: yea, thou liftest me upH7311 above those that rise upH6965 against me: thou hast deliveredH5337 me from the violentH2555 manH376. {violent…: Heb. man of violence}
Therefore will I give thanksH3034 unto thee, O LORDH3068, among the heathenH1471, and sing praisesH2167 unto thy nameH8034. {give…: or, confess}
GreatH1431 deliveranceH3444 giveth he to his kingH4428; and shewethH6213 mercyH2617 to his anointedH4899, to DavidH1732, and to his seedH2233 forH5704 evermoreH5769.
And it came to pass, because the midwivesH3205 fearedH3372 GodH430, that he madeH6213 them housesH1004.
Therefore the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was hotH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he soldH4376 them into the handH3027 of ChushanrishathaimH3573 kingH4428 of MesopotamiaH763: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 servedH5647 ChushanrishathaimH3573 eightH8083 yearsH8141. {Mesopotamia: Heb. Aramnaharaim}
Thine handH3027 shall find outH4672 all thine enemiesH341: thy right handH3225 shall find outH4672 those that hateH8130 thee.
And as since the timeH3117 that I commandedH6680 judgesH8199 to be over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and have caused thee to restH5117 from all thine enemiesH341. Also the LORDH3068 tellethH5046 thee that he will makeH6213 thee an houseH1004.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH6817 unto the LORDH3068: for he had nineH8672 hundredH3967 chariotsH7393 of ironH1270; and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 he mightilyH2394 oppressedH3905 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
Thou shalt makeH7896 them as a fieryH784 ovenH8574 in the timeH6256 of thine angerH6440: the LORDH3068 shall swallow them upH1104 in his wrathH639, and the fireH784 shall devourH398 them.
A SongH7892 of degreesH4609 for SolomonH8010. Except the LORDH3068 buildH1129 the houseH1004, they labourH5998 in vainH7723 that buildH1129 it: except the LORDH3068 keepH8104 the cityH5892, the watchmanH8104 wakethH8245 but in vainH7723. {for…: or, of Solomon} {that…: Heb. that are builders of it in it}
And so it was, when IsraelH3478 had sownH2232, that the MidianitesH4080 came upH5927, and the AmalekitesH6002, and the childrenH1121 of the eastH6924, even they came upH5927 against them;
And they encampedH2583 against them, and destroyedH7843 the increaseH2981 of the earthH776, till thou comeH935 unto GazaH5804, and leftH7604 no sustenanceH4241 for IsraelH3478, neither sheepH7716, nor oxH7794, nor assH2543. {sheep: or goat}
For they came upH5927 with their cattleH4735 and their tentsH168, and they cameH935+H935 asH1767 grasshoppersH697 for multitudeH7230; for both they and their camelsH1581 were without numberH4557: and they enteredH935 into the landH776 to destroyH7843 it.
And IsraelH3478 was greatlyH3966 impoverishedH1809 becauseH6440 of the MidianitesH4080; and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068.
And I will beat downH3807 his foesH6862 before his faceH6440, and plagueH5062 them that hateH8130 him.
And the PhilistinesH6430 gathered themselves togetherH622 to fightH3898 with IsraelH3478, thirtyH7970 thousandH505 chariotsH7393, and sixH8337 thousandH505 horsemenH6571, and peopleH5971 as the sandH2344 which is on the seaH3220 shoreH8193 in multitudeH7230: and they came upH5927, and pitchedH2583 in MichmashH4363, eastwardH6926 from BethavenH1007.
A PsalmH4210 of DavidH1732. The LORDH3068 saidH5002 unto my LordH113, SitH3427 thou at my right handH3225, until I makeH7896 thine enemiesH341 thy footstoolH1916+H7272.
When the menH376 of IsraelH3478 sawH7200 that they were in a straitH6887, (for the peopleH5971 were distressedH5065,) then the peopleH5971 did hideH2244 themselves in cavesH4631, and in thicketsH2337, and in rocksH5553, and in high placesH6877, and in pitsH953.
ForG1063 heG846 mustG1163 reignG936, tillG891+G3739 he hath putG302+G5087 allG3956 enemiesG2190 underG5259 hisG846 feetG4228.
