2 Samuel 7 📜 📕 ↷
4 And it came to pass in that night: and behold the word of our Lord to Nathan, saying:📜💬📚
5 Go, and speak to my servant David: Thus saith our Lord: Shalt thou build me a house to dwell in?📜💬📚
6 For neither have I dwelt in house from the day that I brought the children of Israel out of the Land of AEgypt, until this day: but I walked in tabernacle, and in tent.📜💬📚
7 Throughout all the places, that I have passed with all the children of Israel, speaking did I speak to one of the tribes of Israel, which I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying: why did you not build me a house of cedar?📜💬📚
8 And now these things shalt thou say to my servant David: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I took thee out of the pastures following the flocks, that thou shouldest be Prince over my people Israel:📜💬📚
9 and I have been with thee wheresoever thou hast walked, and have slain all thine enemies from thy face: and have made thee a great name, according to the name of the great ones, that are in the earth.📜💬📚
10 And I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant it, and they shall dwell under it, and shall be troubled no more: neither shall the children of iniquity add to afflict them as before.📜💬📚
11 From the day that I appointed Judges over my people Israel: and I will give thee rest from all thine enemies. And our Lord foretelleth thee, that our Lord will make thee a house.📜💬📚
12 And when thy days shall be accomplished, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall come forth of thy womb, and I will establish his Kingdom.📜💬📚
