'Establishing' in the Bible

But for David's sake Jehovah his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, setting up his son after him, and establishing Jerusalem;

establishing the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to abide in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.

And having stayed there some time, he went forth, passing in order through the country of Galatia and Phrygia, establishing all the disciples.
