1 Chronicles 17:1-27

Now it came to pass, as David
<01732>
sat
<03427> (8804)
in his house
<01004>_,
that David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_,
Lo, I dwell
<03427> (8802)
in an house
<01004>
of cedars
<0730>_,
but the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
[remaineth] under curtains
<03407>_.
Then Nathan
<05416>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto David
<01732>_,
Do
<06213> (8798)
all that [is] in thine heart
<03824>_;
for God
<0430>
[is] with thee.
And it came to pass the same night
<03915>_,
that the word
<01697>
of God
<0430>
came to Nathan
<05416>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
and tell
<0559> (8804)
David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Thou shalt not build
<01129> (8799)
me an house
<01004>
to dwell in
<03427> (8800)_:
For I have not dwelt in
<03427> (8804)
an house
<01004>
since the day
<03117>
that I brought up
<05927> (8689)
Israel
<03478>
unto this day
<03117>_;
but have gone from tent
<0168>
to tent
<0168>_,
and from [one] tabernacle
<04908>
[to another]. {have gone: Heb. have been}
Wheresoever I have walked
<01980> (8694)
with all Israel
<03478>_,
spake
<01696> (8765)
I a word
<01697>
to any
<0259>
of the judges
<08199> (8802)
of Israel
<03478>_,
whom I commanded
<06680> (8765)
to feed
<07462> (8800)
my people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Why have ye not built
<01129> (8804)
me an house
<01004>
of cedars
<0730>_?
Now therefore thus shalt thou say
<0559> (8799)
unto my servant
<05650>
David
<01732>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
I took
<03947> (8804)
thee from the sheepcote
<05116>_,
[even] from following
<0310>
the sheep
<06629>_,
that thou shouldest be ruler
<05057>
over my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_:
{from following: Heb. from after}
And I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast walked
<01980> (8804)_,
and have cut off
<03772> (8686)
all thine enemies
<0341> (8802)
from before
<06440>
thee, and have made
<06213> (8804)
thee a name
<08034>
like the name
<08034>
of the great men
<01419>
that [are] in the earth
<0776>_.
Also I will ordain
<07760> (8804)
a place
<04725>
for my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
and will plant
<05193> (8804)
them, and they shall dwell
<07931> (8804)
in their place, and shall be moved
<07264> (8799)
no more; neither shall the children
<01121>
of wickedness
<05766>
waste
<01086> (8763)
them any more
<03254> (8686)_,
as at the beginning
<07223>_,
And since the time
<03117>
that I commanded
<06680> (8765)
judges
<08199> (8802)
[to be] over my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_.
Moreover I will subdue
<03665> (8689)
all thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_.
Furthermore I tell
<05046> (8686)
thee that the LORD
<03068>
will build
<01129> (8799)
thee an house
<01004>_.
And it shall come to pass, when thy days
<03117>
be expired
<04390> (8804)
that thou must go
<03212> (8800)
[to be] with thy fathers
<01>_,
that I will raise up
<06965> (8689)
thy seed
<02233>
after
<0310>
thee, which shall be of thy sons
<01121>_;
and I will establish
<03559> (8689)
his kingdom
<04438>_.
He shall build
<01129> (8799)
me an house
<01004>_,
and I will stablish
<03559> (8790)
his throne
<03678>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
I will be his father
<01>_,
and he shall be my son
<01121>_:
and I will not take
<05493> (0)
my mercy
<02617>
away
<05493> (8686)
from him, as I took
<05493> (8689)
[it] from [him] that was before
<06440>
thee:
But I will settle
<05975> (8689)
him in mine house
<01004>
and in my kingdom
<04438>
for ever
<05769>_:
and his throne
<03678>
shall be established
<03559> (8737)
for
<05704>
evermore
<05769>_.
According to all these words
<01697>_,
and according to all this vision
<02377>_,
so did Nathan
<05416>
speak
<01696> (8765)
unto David
<01732>_.
And David
<01732>
the king
<04428>
came
<0935> (8799)
and sat
<03427> (8799)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Who [am] I, O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>_,
and what [is] mine house
<01004>_,
that thou hast brought
<0935> (8689)
me hitherto
<01988>_?
And [yet] this was a small thing
<06994> (8799)
in thine eyes
<05869>_,
O God
<0430>_;
for thou hast [also] spoken
<01696> (8762)
of thy servant's
<05650>
house
<01004>
for a great while to come
<07350>_,
and hast regarded
<07200> (8804)
me according to the estate
<08448>
of a man
<0120>
of high degree
<04609>_,
O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>_.
What can
<03254> (0)
David
<01732>
[speak] more
<03254> (8686)
to thee for the honour
<03519>
of thy servant
<05650>_?
for thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
thy servant
<05650>_.
O LORD
<03068>_,
for thy servant's
<05650>
sake, and according to thine own heart
<03820>_,
hast thou done
<06213> (8804)
all this greatness
<01420>_,
in making known
<03045> (8687)
all [these] great things
<01420>_.
{great...: Heb. greatnesses}
O LORD
<03068>_,
[there is] none like thee, neither [is there any] God
<0430>
beside
<02108>
thee, according to all that we have heard
<08085> (8804)
with our ears
<0241>_.
And what one
<0259>
nation
<01471>
in the earth
<0776>
[is] like thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
whom God
<0430>
went
<01980> (8804)
to redeem
<06299> (8800)
[to be] his own people
<05971>_,
to make
<07760> (8800)
thee a name
<08034>
of greatness
<01420>
and terribleness
<03372> (8737)_,
by driving out
<01644> (8763)
nations
<01471>
from before
<06440>
thy people
<05971>_,
whom thou hast redeemed
<06299> (8804)
out of Egypt
<04714>_?
For thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>
didst thou make
<05414> (8799)
thine own people
<05971>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_;
and thou, LORD
<03068>_,
becamest their God
<0430>_.
Therefore now, LORD
<03068>_,
let the thing
<01697>
that thou hast spoken
<01696> (8765)
concerning thy servant
<05650>
and concerning his house
<01004>
be established
<0539> (8735)
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_,
and do
<06213> (8798)
as thou hast said
<01696> (8765)_.
Let it even be established
<0539> (8735)_,
that thy name
<08034>
may be magnified
<01431> (8799)
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
[is] the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
[even] a God
<0430>
to Israel
<03478>_:
and [let] the house
<01004>
of David
<01732>
thy servant
<05650>
[be] established
<03559> (8737)
before
<06440>
thee.
For thou, O my God
<0430>_,
hast told
<01540> (8804) <0241>
thy servant
<05650>
that thou wilt build
<01129> (8800)
him an house
<01004>_:
therefore thy servant
<05650>
hath found
<04672> (8804)
[in his heart] to pray
<06419> (8692)
before
<06440>
thee. {hast...: Heb. hast revealed the ear of thy servant}
And now, LORD
<03068>_,
thou art God
<0430>_,
and hast promised
<01696> (8762)
this goodness
<02896>
unto thy servant
<05650>_:
Now therefore let it please
<02974> (8689)
thee to bless
<01288> (8763)
the house
<01004>
of thy servant
<05650>_,
that it may be before
<06440>
thee for ever
<05769>_:
for thou blessest
<01288> (8765)_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
and [it shall be] blessed
<01288> (8794)
for ever
<05769>_.
{let...: or, it hath pleased thee}
