I will be to him for father, and he shall be to me for son; who in his sinning I struck him with the rod of men, and with the blows of the sons of men. And my mercy I will not remove from him as I removed from Saul whom I removed from thy face. And thy house was firm and thy kingdom even to forever before thee; thy throne shall be prepared even to forever.
He shall build to me a house, and I prepared his throne even to forever. I will be to him for father, and het shall be to me for son: and my mercy will I not remove from him as I removed from him being before thee. And I caused him to stand in my house and in my kingdom even to forever: and his throne shall be set up even to forever.
And Jehovah will say to David my father, Because it was with thy heart to build a house to my name, thou didst well that it was with thy heart But thou shalt not build the house; for thy son coming forth from thy loins, he shall build the house to my name. And Jehovah will raise up the word that he spake: and I shall rise up instead of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel according to the word of Jehovah; and I will build the house to the name of Jehovah God of Israel. And there I will set the ark where is there the covenant of Jehovah which he cut out with the sons of Israel And he will stand before the altar of Jehovah before all the convocation of Israel, and he will spread forth his hands: For Solomon made a platform of brass, and he will give it in the midst of the terrace.; five cubits its length, and five cubits its breadth, and three cubits its height: and he will stand upon it, and he will bend upon his knees before all the convocation of Israel, and he will spread forth his hands to the heavens, And he will say, O Jehovah God of Israel, not as thee a God in the heavens and in the earth, watching the covenant and the mercy to thy servants going before thee with all their heart: Who didst watch to thy servant David my father what thou spakest to him; and thou wilt speak with thy month, and with thy hand thou wilt fill up, as this day. And now Jehovah God of Israel, watch to thy servant David my father what thou spakest to him, saying, A man shall not be cut off to thee from before me sitting upon the throne of Israel; only if thy sons shall watch their way to go in my law according as thou wentest before me. And slow, O Jehovah God of Israel, thy word shall be firm which thou didst speak to thy servant, to David.
The enemy shall not impose upon him, and the son of iniquity shall not afflict him. And I beat down his adversaries from his fame, and I will smite those hating him. And my faithfulness and my mercy with him, and in my name shall his horn be exalted. And I set his hand in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers. He shall call me, Thou my father, my God, and the Rock of my salvation, Also I will give him the firstborn, the highest to the kings of the earth. Forever will I watch my mercy to him, and my covenant was firm to him. I set his seed forever, and his throne as the days of the heavens. If his sons shall forsake my law, and not go in my judgments; If they shall profane my laws and watch not my commands; And I reviewed their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with blows. And my mercy I will not rend from him, and I will not lie in my faithfulness, I will not profane my covenant, and I will not change the going forth of my lips. Once did I swear in my holy place if I shall lie to David. His seed shall be forever and his throne as the sun before me. As the moon it shall be prepared forever, and a faithful witness in the cloud. Silence.
And I fastened him a peg in a faithful place; and he. was for a throne of glory to his father's house. And they hung upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the sprouts, all the vessels of smallness, from the vessels of lavers and even to all the vessels of flasks. In that day, says Jehovah of armies, shall the peg fastened in a faithful place give way, and it was cut down, and it fell; and the lifting up which was upon it was cut off: for Jehovah spake.
And to the priests, the Levites, I will not cut off a man from my face bringing up burnt-offerings, and burning the gift, and doing sacrifice all the days. And the word of Jehovah will be to Jeremiah, saying, Thus said Jehovah, If ye shall break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night, and there was not day and night in their season; Also my covenant shall be broken with David ray servant from there being to him a son reigning upon his throne; and with the Levites, the priests, from serving me. As the army of the heavens shall not be numbered and the sand of the sea shall not be measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites serving me. And the word of Jehovah will be to Jeremiah, saying, Sawest thou not what this people spake, saying, The two families which Jehovah chose in them, and he will reject them? and they will despise my people from being yet a nation before them. Thus said Jehovah, If not my covenant of the day and of the night, the laws of the heavens and the earth I set not up. Also the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, will I reject from taking from his seed those ruling over the seed of Abraham, Isaak, and Jacob for I will turn back their captivity, and I compassionated them.

For not thus my house with the Strong One, for he set to me an eternal covenant, prepared in all, and watched: for all my salvation and delight will he not bring forth. And Belial as the thorn thrusting out are all they, for they will not be taken by the hand. And the man laboring in them shall be filled with iron and the wood of a spear; and in fire burning they shall burn in the dwelling.

Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou wilt fill me with gladness with thy face. Men, brethren, it is permitted to speak with freedom of speech to you of the patriarch David, for he died and was buried, and his tomb is with us even till this day. Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God swore with an oath to him, of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, to raise up Christ to sit upon his throne: Foreknowing, he spake of the rising up of Christ, that his soul was not left in hades, neither did his flesh see corruption. This Jesus God raised up, of which all we are witnesses. Therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received the promise of the Holy Spirit from the Father, he poured out this, which ye now see and hear. For David ascended not into the heavens: and he himself says, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit from my right hand, Even till I set thine enemies the footstool of thy feet. Therefore let all the house of Israel know certainly, that God made him Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified. And having heard, they were pricked in heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the sent, What shall we do, men, brethren? And Peter said to them, Repent, and be each of you immersed in the name of Jesus Christ for remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

So that Jehovah shall raise up his word which he spake concerning me, saying, If thy sons shall watch their way to go before me in truth, with all their heart, and with all their soul, saying, There shall not be cut off to thee a man from the throne of Israel. And also thou knewest what Joab on of Zeruiah did to me, what he did to the two chiefs of the armies of Israel, to Abner son of Ner, and to Amasa son of Jether; and he will kill them and put the bloods of war in peace, and give the bloods of war upon his girdle which was upon his loins, and in his shoe upon his feet And do according to thy wisdom, and thou wilt not bring down his gray hairs in peace to hades And to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite thou shalt do mercy, and they shall be of those eating at thy table: for so they came near to me in my fleeing from the face of Absalom thy brother. And behold, with thee Shimei, son of Gera, a Benjamite, of Bahurim; and he cursed me a strong curse in the day I went to the two camps and he came down to my meeting at Jordan, and I will swear to him by Jehovah, saying, If I shall kill thee with the sword. And now thou shalt not let him go unpunished; for thou a wise man, and thou knowest what thou wilt do to him; and bring down his gray hairs with blood to hades And David will lie down with his fathers, and be buried in the city of David. And the days that David reigned over Israel, forty years: in Hebron he reigned seven years, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years.
Behold, a son being born to thee, he shall be a man of rest; and I caused rest to him from all his enemies from round about: for Solomon shall be his name, and I will give peace and quiet upon Israel in his days. He shall build a house to my name; and he shall be to me for son, and I to him for father; and I prepared the throne of his kingdom over Israel even to forever. Now, my son, Jehovah will be with thee; and prosper thou and build the house of Jehovah thy God as he spake concerning thee. Surely Jehovah will give to thee wisdom and understanding, and he will command thee concerning Israeli and to watch the law of Jehovah thy God. Then thou shalt prosper if thou shalt watch to do the laws and the judgments which Jehovah commanded Moses concerning Israel: be strong and be active; thou shalt not fear and thou shalt not be terrified. And behold in my affliction I prepared for the house of Jehovah, gold, a hundred thousand talents, and silver, a thousand thousand talents; and for brass and for iron, no weight; for it was for abundance: and woods and stones I prepared, and upon them thou wilt add. And with thee for abundance, they doing the work, hewers and workmen of stone and wood, and all the wise for all the work To gold, to silver, and to brass, and to iron, no number. Arise and do, and Jehovah will be with thee.

Uriah the Hittite thou didst strike with the sword, and his wife thou tookest to thee for a wife, and thou didst kill him with the sword of the sons of Ammon. And now the sword shall not depart from thy house even to forever; because that thou didst despise me, and thou wilt take the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be to thee for wife. Thus said Jehovah, Behold me raising up evil against thee from thy house, and I took thy wives before thine eyes and gave to thy neighbor, and he lay with thy wives before the eyes of this sun. For thou didst in secret: and I will do this word before all Israel, and before the sun. And David will say to Nathan, I sinned against Jehovah.

For sake of thy word and according to thy heart thou didst all this greatness to make thy servant know. For this thou wert great, Jehovah God: for none as thee, for no God beside thee according to all we heard in our ears. And who as thy people, as Israel, one nation in the earth whom God went to redeem to him for a people, and to set up for him a name, and to do for you greatness and wonderful things for thy land from the face of thy people whom thou didst redeem to thee from Egypt, nations and his tents. And thou wilt prepare to thyself thy people Israel to thee for a people, even to forever. And thou Jehovah wert to them for God. And now, Jehovah God the word that thou spakest concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, set up even to forever, and do as thou spakest And thy name shall be great even to forever, saying, Jehovah of armies the God over Israel: and the house of thy servant David shall be prepared before thee. For thou, Jehovah of armies, the God of Israel, thou didst open the ear of thy servant, saying, I will build to thee an house: for this thy servant found his heart to pray to thee this prayer. And now, Lord Jehovah, thou that God, and thy words shall be true, and thou wilt speak to thy servant this goodness. And now be willing and bless the house of thy servant to be forever before thee: for thou, Lord Jehovah, spakest: and from thy blessing the house of thy servant shall be blessed forever.
And Saul will say, I will give her to him, and she shall be to him for a snare, and the hand of the rovers shall be against him. And Saul will say to David, In the second time thou shalt be son-in-law to me this day. And Saul commanded his servants, Speak to David in secret, saying, Behold, the king delighted in thee, and all his servants loved thee: and now be son-in-law of the king. And Saul's servants will speak in the ears of David these words. And David will say, Was it light in your eyes to be son-in-law to the king, and I a poor man and lightly esteemed?
O Jehovah, for sake of thy servant, and according to thy heart, thou didst all this greatness to make known all thy greatnesses O Jehovah, none like thee, and no God besides thee, in all that we heard with our ears. And what one nation as thy people Israel, in the earth, whom God went to redeem to him a people to set up to thee a name of greatnesses and terrible things, to thrust out nations from before thy people, whom thou didst redeem from Egypt? And thou wilt give thy people Israel to thee for a people even to forever; and thou, O Jehovah, wert to them for God. And now, O Jehovah, the word which thou spakest concerning thy servant and concerning his house, shall be faithful even to forever, and do as thou spakest And it shall be firm, and thy name shall be magnified even to forever, saying, Jehovah of armies, God of Israel, is God to Israel: and the house of David thy servant was prepared before thee. For thou, my God, didst uncover the ear of thy servant to build for him a house: for this thy servant found to pray before thee. And now, O Jehovah, thou thyself art God, and thou wilt speak concerning thy servant this goodness. And now thou wert pleased to bless the house of thy servant, to be forever before thee: for thou didst bless, and blessing forever.

And the king's word will be strong to Joab and to the chiefs of his army. And Joab went forth and the chiefs of his army before the king to review the people Israel. And they will pass over Jordan, and they will encamp in Aroer, the right hand of the city which is in the midst of the torrent of Gad, and towards Jazer: And they will come to Gilead and to the land of Tahtim-Hodshi; and they will come to Dan-Jaan, and round about to Zidon. And they will come to the fortress of Tyre, and all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites; and they will go forth to the south of Judah to the Well of the Oath. And they will turn aside through all the land, and they will come from the end of nine months and twenty days to Jerusalem. And Joab will give the number of the reviewing of the people to the king: and there will be of Israel eight hundred thousand men of strength drawing sword; and the men of Judah, five hundred thousand men.

And the woman will conceive, and send and announce to David, and say, I am pregnant And David will send to Joab, Send to me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab will send Uriah to David. And Uriah will come to him, and David will ask for peace of Joab, and for the peace of the people, and for the peace of the host And David will say to Uriah, Go down to thy house and wash thy feet And Uriah will go forth from the house of the king and a loan of the king will go forth after him. And Uriah will lie at the door of the house of the king with all the servants of his lord, and will not go down to his house. And they will announce to David, saying Uriah went not down to his house; and David will say to Uriah, Camest thou not from the way? wherefore wentest thou not down to thy house? And Uriah will say to David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, dwell in tents; and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are encamping upon the face of the field; and shall I come into my house to eat and to drink and to lie with my wife? Thee living and thy soul living, if I shall do this word. And David will say to Uriah, Dwell here also this day, and to-morrow I will send thee away. And Uriah dwelt in Jerusalem in that day and from the morrow. And David will call for him, and he will eat before him and drink; and he will make him drunk: and he will go forth in the evening to lie upon his bed with the servants of his lord; and he will not go down to his house. And it will be in the morning, and David will write a letter to Joab, and send by the hand of Uriah. And he will write in the letter: saying, Bring in Uriah to the front of the face of the strong battle, and turn ye back from after him, and he shall be smitten and die. And it will be in Joab's watching the city, and he will give Uriah to the place where he knew that strong men were there. And the men of the city will go forth and fight with Joab: and there will fall of the people from the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite also will die. And Joab will send and announce to David all the words of the war; And be will command the messenger, saying, When thou finishest all the words of the war to speak to the king, And it being if the wrath of the king shall go up, and he say to thee, Wherefore drew ye near to the city to fight? did ye not know that they cast from above the wall? Who struck Abimelech, son of Jerubbesheth? Did not a woman cast upon him a piece of the upper millstone from above the wall, and he will die in Thebez? Wherefore drew ye near to the wall? And say thou, Also thy servant, Uriah the Hittite died. And the messenger will go, and come and announce to David all that for which Joab sent him. And the messenger will say to David, That the men were strengthened upon us, and they came out to us to the field, and they were upon them, even to the door of the gate. And they beholding, aimed at thy servants from above the wall: and from the servants of the king will die, and also thy servant, Uriah the Hittite died. And David will say to the messenger, Thus shalt thou say to Joab, This same word shall not be evil in thine eyes, as this, and as this, the sword shall consume: strengthen thy battle against the city and pull it down: and strengthen yourselves. And Uriah's wife will hear that Uriah her husband died, and she will mourn for her lord. And the mourning will pass over, and David will send and take her to his house, and she will be to him for wife, and bear to him a son. And the word which David did will be evil in the eyes of Jehovah.

And he will say, If Aram shall be strong above me, and be thou to me for deliverance: and if the sons of Ammon shall be strong above thee, and I came for deliverance to thee. Be strong, and we will be strong for our people, and for the cities of our God: and Jehovah shall do the good in his eyes. And Joab will draw near, and the people which were with him, to battle against Aram: and they will flee from his face. And the sons of Ammon saw that Aram fled and they will flee from the face of Abishai, and come into the city. And Joab will turn back from the sons of Ammon and come to Jerusalem.
