Also the LORD3068 telleth5046 thee that he will make6213 thee an house1004. 7:12 And when thy days3117 be fulfilled4390, and thou shalt sleep7901 with thy fathers0001, I will set up6965 thy seed2233 after0310 thee, which shall proceed3318 out of thy bowels4578, and I will establish3559 his kingdom4467. 7:13 He shall build1129 an house1004 for my name8034, and I will stablish3559 the throne3678 of his kingdom4467 for5704 ever5769. 7:14 I will be his father0001, and he shall be my son1121. If he commit iniquity5753, I will chasten3198 him with the rod7626 of men0582, and with the stripes5061 of the children1121 of men0120: 7:15 But my mercy2617 shall not depart away5493 from him, as I took5493 {it} from Saul7586, whom I put away5493 before6440 thee. 7:16 And thine house1004 and thy kingdom4467 shall be established0539 for5704 ever5769 before6440 thee: thy throne3678 shall be established3559 for5704 ever5769. 7:17 According to all these words1697, and according to all this vision2384, so did Nathan5416 speak1696 unto David1732. 7:18 Then went0935 king4428 David1732 in, and sat3427 before6440 the LORD3068, and he said0559, Who {am} I, O Lord0136 GOD3069? and what {is} my house1004, that thou hast brought0935 me hitherto1988? 7:19 And this was yet a small thing6994 in thy sight5869, O Lord0136 GOD3069; but thou hast spoken1696 also of thy servant's5650 house1004 for a great while to come7350. And {is} this the manner8452 of man0120, O Lord0136 GOD3069? 7:20 And what can3254 David1732 say1696 more3254 unto thee? for thou, Lord0136 GOD3069, knowest3045 thy servant5650. 7:21 For thy word's1697 sake, and according to thine own heart3820, hast thou done6213 all these great things1420, to make thy servant5650 know3045 {them}. 7:22 Wherefore thou art great1431, O LORD3068 God0430: for {there is} none like thee, neither {is there any} God0430 beside2108 thee, according to all that we have heard8085 with our ears0241. 7:23 And what one0259 nation1471 in the earth0776 {is} like thy people5971, {even} like Israel3478, whom God0430 went1980 to redeem6299 for a people5971 to himself, and to make7760 him a name8034, and to do6213 for you great things1420 and terrible3372, for thy land0776, before6440 thy people5971, which thou redeemedst6299 to thee from Egypt4714, {from} the nations1471 and their gods0430? 7:24 For thou hast confirmed3559 to thyself thy people5971 Israel3478 {to be} a people5971 unto thee for5704 ever5769: and thou, LORD3068, art become1961 their God0430. 7:25 And now, O LORD3068 God0430, the word1697 that thou hast spoken1696 concerning thy servant5650, and concerning his house1004, establish6965 {it} for5704 ever5769, and do6213 as thou hast said1696. 7:26 And let thy name8034 be magnified1431 for5704 ever5769, saying0559, The LORD3068 of hosts6635 {is} the God0430 over Israel3478: and let the house1004 of thy servant5650 David1732 be established3559 before6440 thee. 7:27 For thou, O LORD3068 of hosts6635, God0430 of Israel3478, hast revealed1540-0241 to thy servant5650, saying0559, I will build1129 thee an house1004: therefore hath thy servant5650 found4672 in his heart3820 to pray6419 this prayer8605 unto thee. 7:28 And now, O Lord0136 GOD3069, thou {art} that God0430, and thy words1697 be true0571, and thou hast promised1696 this goodness2896 unto thy servant5650: 7:29 Therefore now let it please2974 thee to bless1288 the house1004 of thy servant5650, that it may continue for ever5769 before6440 thee: for thou, O Lord0136 GOD3069, hast spoken1696 {it}: and with thy blessing1293 let the house1004 of thy servant5650 be blessed1288 for ever5769.
