2 Samuel 7:1–10

⁷When a man’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.

⁷When a mans wayes please the LORD, he maketh euen his enemies to be at peace with him.

⁷⁴That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,

⁷⁵In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

⁷⁴That hee would grant vnto vs, that wee beeing deliuered out of the hands of our enemies, might serue him without feare,

⁷⁵In holinesse and righteousnesse before him, all the dayes of our life.

⁴But now the Lord my God hath given me rest on every side, so that there is neither adversary nor evil occurrent.

⁴But now the LORD my God hath giuen me rest on euery side, so that there is neither aduersary, nor euill occurrent.

⁶¶ And he built fenced cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; because the Lord had given him rest.

⁶¶ And hee built fenced cities in Iudah; for the land had rest, and hee had no warre in those yeeres; because the LORD had giuen him rest.

¹NOW it came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in an house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the Lord remaineth under curtains.

²Then Nathan said unto David, Do all that is in thine heart; for God is with thee.

³¶ And it came to pass the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,

⁴Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:

⁵For I have not dwelt in an house since the day that I brought up Israel unto this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from one tabernacle to another.

⁶Wheresoever I have walked with all Israel, spake I a word to any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, Why have ye not built me an house of cedars?

⁷Now therefore thus shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, I took thee from the sheepcote, even from following the sheep, that thou shouldest be ruler over my people Israel:

⁸And I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast walked, and have cut off all thine enemies from before thee, and have made thee a name like the name of the great men that are in the earth.

⁹Also I will ordain a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, and they shall dwell in their place, and shall be moved no more; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the beginning,

¹⁰And since the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. Moreover I will subdue all thine enemies. Furthermore I tell thee that the Lord will build thee an house.

¹¹¶ And it shall come to pass, when thy days be expired that thou must go to be with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom.

¹²He shall build me an house, and I will stablish his throne for ever.

¹³I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took it from him that was before thee:

¹⁴But I will settle him in mine house and in my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall be established for evermore.

¹⁵According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.

¹⁶¶ And David the king came and sat before the Lord, and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?

¹⁷And yet this was a small thing in thine eyes, O God; for thou hast also spoken of thy servant’s house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, O Lord God.

¹⁸What can David speak more to thee for the honour of thy servant? for thou knowest thy servant.

¹⁹O Lord, for thy servant’s sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this greatness, in making known all these great things.

²⁰O Lord, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

²¹And what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem to be his own people, to make thee a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast redeemed out of Egypt?

²²For thy people Israel didst thou make thine own people for ever; and thou, Lord, becamest their God.

²³Therefore now, Lord, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as thou hast said.

²⁴Let it even be established, that thy name may be magnified for ever, saying, The Lord of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel: and let the house of David thy servant be established before thee.

²⁵For thou, O my God, hast told thy servant that thou wilt build him an house: therefore thy servant hath found in his heart to pray before thee.

²⁶And now, Lord, thou art God, and hast promised this goodness unto thy servant:

²⁷Now therefore let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee for ever: for thou blessest, O Lord, and it shall be blessed for ever.

¹¶ Now ^*it came to passe, as Dauid sate in his house, that Dauid sayde to Nathan the Prophet, Loe, I dwell in an house of Cedars, but the Arke of the Couenant of the LORD remaineth vnder curtaines.

²Then Nathan sayd vnto Dauid, Doe all that is in thine heart, for God is with thee.

³¶ And it came to passe the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,

⁴Goe and tell Dauid my seruant, Thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in.

⁵For I haue not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought vp Israel, vnto this day, but ^†haue gone from tent to tent, and from one Tabernacle to another.

⁶Wheresoeuer I haue walked with all Israel, spake I a word to any of the Iudges of Israel (whom I commanded to feed my people) saying, Why haue ye not built me an house of Cedars?

⁷Now therefore thus shalt thou say vnto my seruant Dauid, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I tooke thee from the Sheep-coat, euen ^†from folowing the sheep, that thou shouldest be ruler ouer my people Israel:

⁸And I haue bene with thee whithersoeuer thou hast walked, and haue cut off all thine enemies from before thee, and haue made thee a name, like the name of the great men that are in the earth.

⁹Also I will ordeine a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, and they shall dwell in their place, and shall be moued no more: neither shal the children of wickednesse waste them any more (as at the beginning,

¹⁰And since the time that I commanded Iudges to bee ouer my people Israel.) Moreouer, I will subdue all thine enemies. Furthermore I tel thee, that the LORD will build thee an house.

¹¹¶ And it shall come to passe, when thy dayes be expired, that thou must go to be with thy fathers, that I will raise vp thy seed after thee, which shall bee of thy sonnes, and I wil stablish his kingdome.

¹²He shall build me an house, and I will stablish his throne for euer.

¹³I ^*will be his father, and he shall be my sonne, and I will not take my mercie away from him, as I tooke it from him that was before thee.

¹⁴But I will settle him in mine house, and in my kingdom for euer, and his throne shall bee established for euermore.

¹⁵According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speake vnto Dauid.

¹⁶¶ And Dauid the king came, and sate before the LORD, and said, Who am I, O LORD God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought mee hitherto?

¹⁷And yet this was a small thing in thine eyes, O God: for thou hast also spoken of thy seruants house, for a great while to come, and hast regarded mee according to the estate of a man of high degree, O LORD God.

¹⁸What can Dauid speake more to thee for the honour of thy seruant? for thou knowest thy seruant.

¹⁹O LORD, for thy seruants sake, and according to thine owne heart, hast thou done all this greatnesse in making knowen all these ^†great things.

²⁰O LORD, there is none like thee neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that we haue heard with our eares.

²¹And what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whome God went to redeeme to be his owne people, to make thee a name of greatnesse and terriblenesse, by driuing out nations from before thy people whom thou hast redeemed out of Egypt?

²²For thy people Israel didst thou make thine owne people for euer, and thou, LORD, becamest their God.

²³Therefore now LORD, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy seruant, and concerning his house, be established for euer, and doe as thou hast said.

²⁴Let it euen bee established, that thy name may bee magnified for euer, saying, The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, euen a God to Israel: and let the house of Dauid thy seruant be established before thee.

²⁵For thou, O my God, ^†hast tolde thy seruant that thou wilt build him an house: therefore thy seruant hath found in his heart to pray before thee.

²⁶And now, LORD (thou art God, and hast promised this goodnesse vnto thy seruant.)

²⁷Now therefore ^‖let it please thee to blesse the house of thy seruant, that it may bee before thee for euer: for thou blessest, O LORD, and it shalbe blessed for euer.

³⁰The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty?

^29‖At the end of twelue moneths he walked in the palace of the kingdome of Babylon.

⁴Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:

⁴Goe and tell Dauid my seruant, Thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in.

³Now the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward: and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.

⁴Of which, twenty and four thousand were to set forward the work of the house of the Lord; and six thousand were officers and judges:

²⁵For David said, The Lord God of Israel hath given rest unto his people, that they may dwell in Jerusalem for ever:

²⁶And also unto the Levites; they shall no more carry the tabernacle, nor any vessels of it for the service thereof.

²⁷For by the last words of David the Levites were numbered from twenty years old and above:

²⁸Because their office was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the Lord, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, and the work of the service of the house of God;

²⁹Both for the shewbread, and for the fine flour for meat offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for that which is baked in the pan, and for that which is fried, and for all manner of measure and size;

¹¹And Iahath was the chiefe, and Ziza the second: but Ieush and Beriah ^†had not many sonnes: therefore they were in one reckoning, according to their fathers house.

¹²¶ The sonnes of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, foure.

¹³The sonnes of ^*Amram: Aaron and Moses: and ^*Aaron was separated, that he should sanctifie the most holy things, he and his sonnes for euer, to burne incense before the LORD, to minister vnto him, and to blesse in his Name for euer.

²²And Eleazar died, and had no sonnes but daughters: and their ^‖brethren the sonnes of Kish tooke them.
