So they came up in Baal-perazim, and David smote them there, and David said, God hath broken forth against mine enemies by my hand, like the breaking forth of waters, - For this cause, called they the name of that place, Baal-perazim.

I, will become his father, and, he, shall become my son, - and, my lovingkindness, will I not cause to depart from him, - as I caused it to depart from him who was before thee;

but I will cause him to remain over my house and over my kingdom, unto times age-abiding, - and, his throne, shall be established, unto times age-abiding.

For, thou, O my God, hast unveiled the ear of thy servant, that thou wilt build for him a house, - for this cause, hath thy servant found it in his heart to pray before thee.
