2Samuel:7:18-29
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then entered King David ,
and tarried before Yahweh ,
and said Who am ,
I ,
My Lord ,
Yahweh ,
and what is my house ,
that thou hast brought me ,
hitherto ;
*
and hast yet further made this seem little in thine eyes ,
My Lord ,
Yahweh ,
in that thou hast spoken ,
even of the house ,
of thy servant ,
for a great while to come ?
This ,
then is the law of manhood ,
O My Lord ,
Yahweh !
*
What more ,
then ,
can David yet further speak unto thee ,
seeing that ,
thou thyself knowest thy servant ,
O My Lord Yahweh ?
*
For the sake of thine own word ,
and according to thine own heart ,
hast thou done all this great thing ,
making it known unto thy servant .
*
For this cause ,
hast thou magnified thyself ,
O Yahweh Elohim ,
for there is none like unto ,
thee ,
yea there is no God besides thee ,
according to all that we have heard with our ears .
*
Who ,
then ,
is like thy people ,
like Israel ,
a nation alone in the earth ?
whom God went to redeem for himself as a people ,
so to make himself a name ,
and to do for you the great deed ,
fearful things also for thy land ,
to make way for thy people ,
whom thou hadst redeemed for thyself ,
out of Egypt ,
nations and their gods ;
*
and hast established for thyself thy people Israelfor thyself as a people ,
unto times age-abiding ,
thou thyself ,
also ,
O Yahweh ,
becoming their God .
*
Now ,
therefore ,
O Yahweh Elohim ,
the word which thou hast spoken concerning thy servant ,
and concerning his house ,
confirm thou ,
unto times age-abiding ,
and do ,
as thou hast spoken :
*
that thy name may be age-abidingly magnified ,
saying ,
Yahweh of hosts ,
is God over Israel ,
and so ,
the house of thy servant David ,
be established before thee .
*
For ,
thou ,
O Yahweh of hosts ,
God of Israel ,
hast unveiled the ear of thy servant ,
saying A house ,
will I build for thee .
For this cause ,
hath thy servant found in his heart ,
to pray unto thee ,
this prayer .
*
Now ,
therefore ,
O My Lord ,
Yahweh ,
thou ,
art God ,
and ,
thy words ,
shall prove true ,
therefore hast thou spoken unto thy servant this goodness .
*
Now ,
therefore ,
be pleased to bless the house of thy servant ,
that it may continue age-abidingly before thee ,
for ,
thou ,
O My Lord ,
Yahweh ,
hast spoken ,
therefore ,
with thine own blessing ,
shall the house of thy servant be age-abidingly blessed .
