strkjv@2Samuel:7:1 @ And it came to pass, when the king sat in his house, and the LORD Y@hovah# had given him rest round about from all his enemies;
strkjv@2Samuel:7:2 @ That the king said unto Nathan the prophet, See now, I dwell in an house of cedar, but the ark of God dwelleth within curtains.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:3 @ And Nathan said to the king, Go, do all that is in thine heart; for the LORD Y@hovah# is with thee.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:4 @ And it came to pass that night, that the word of the LORD Y@hovah# came unto Nathan, saying,
strkjv@2Samuel:7:5 @ Go and tell my servant David, Thus saith the LORD Y@hovah#, Shalt thou build me an house for me to dwell in?
strkjv@2Samuel:7:6 @ Whereas I have not dwelt in any house since the time that I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, but have walked in a tent and in a tabernacle.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:7 @ In all the places wherein I have walked with all the children of Israel spake I a word with any of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, Why build ye not me an house of cedar?
strkjv@2Samuel:7:8 @ Now therefore so shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith the LORD Y@hovah# of hosts, I took thee from the sheepcote, from following the sheep, to be ruler over my people, over Israel:
strkjv@2Samuel:7:9 @ And I was with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies out of thy sight, and have made thee a great name, like unto the name of the great men that are in the earth.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:10 @ Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime,
strkjv@2Samuel:7:11 @ And as since the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel, and have caused thee to rest from all thine enemies. Also the LORD Y@hovah# telleth thee that he will make thee an house.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:12 @ And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:13 @ He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:14 @ I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men:
strkjv@2Samuel:7:15 @ But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:16 @ And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:17 @ According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:18 @ Then went king David in, and sat before the LORD Y@hovah#, and he said, Who am I, O Lord GOD Y@hovih#? and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
strkjv@2Samuel:7:19 @ And this was yet a small thing in thy sight, O Lord GOD Y@hovih#; but thou hast spoken also of thy servants house for a great while to come. And is this the manner of man, O Lord GOD Y@hovih#?
strkjv@2Samuel:7:20 @ And what can # David say more unto thee? for thou, Lord GOD Y@hovih#, knowest thy servant.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:21 @ For thy words sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all these great things, to make thy servant know them.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:22 @ Wherefore thou art great, O LORD Y@hovah# God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:23 @ And what one nation in the earth is like thy people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to himself, and to make him a name, and to do for you great things and terrible, for thy land, before thy people, which thou redeemedst to thee from Egypt, from the nations and their gods?
strkjv@2Samuel:7:24 @ For thou hast confirmed to thyself thy people Israel to be a people unto thee for ever: and thou, LORD Y@hovah#, art become their God.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:25 @ And now, O LORD Y@hovah# God, the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, establish it for ever, and do as thou hast said.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:26 @ And let thy name be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD Y@hovah# of hosts is the God over Israel: and let the house of thy servant David be established before thee.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:27 @ For thou, O LORD Y@hovah# of hosts, God of Israel, hast revealed to thy servant, saying, I will build thee an house: therefore hath thy servant found in his heart to pray this prayer unto thee.
strkjv@2Samuel:7:28 @ And now, O Lord GOD Y@hovih#, thou art that God, and thy words be true, and thou hast promised this goodness unto thy servant:
strkjv@2Samuel:7:29 @ Therefore now let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may continue for ever before thee: for thou, O Lord GOD Y@hovih#, hast spoken it: and with thy blessing B@rakah# let the house of thy servant be blessed for ever.
