Bible. Samuel, 2nd
10:006:022 And I will yet be more vile than thus, and will be base in
mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken
of, of them shall I be had in honour.
10:006:023 Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no child unto the
day of her death.
10:007:001 And it came to pass, when the king sat in his house, and the
LORD had given him rest round about from all his enemies;
10:007:002 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.
10:007:003 And Nathan said to the king, Go, do all that is in thine
heart; for the LORD is with thee.
10:007:004 And it came to pass that night, that the word of the LORD came
unto Nathan, saying,
10:007:005 Go and tell my servant David, Thus saith the LORD, Shalt thou
build me an house for me to dwell in?
10:007:006 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.
10:007:007 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?
10:007:008 Now therefore so shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus
saith the LORD of hosts, I took thee from the sheepcote, from
following the sheep, to be ruler over my people, over Israel:
10:007:009 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.
10:007:010 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,
10:007:011 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 telleth thee that he will make thee an
house.
10:007:012 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.
10:007:013 He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the
throne of his kingdom for ever.
10:007:014 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:
10:007:015 But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from
Saul, whom I put away before thee.
