1 Chronicles

Chapter 17

1 Now it came to pass,1961 as834 David1732 sat3427 in his house,1004 that David1732 said559 to413 Nathan5416 the prophet,5030 Lo,2009 I595 dwell3427 in a house1004 of cedars,730 but the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 remaineth under8478 curtains.3407

2 Then Nathan5416 said559 unto413 David,1732 Do6213 all3605 that834 is in thine heart;3824 for3588 God430 is with5973 thee.

3 And it came to pass1961 the same1931 night,3915 that the word1697 of God430 came1961 to413 Nathan,5416 saying,559

4 Go1980 and tell559 413 David1732 my servant,5650 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 Thou859 shalt not3808 build1129 me a house1004 to dwell in: 3427

5 For3588 I have not3808 dwelt3427 in a house1004 since4480 the day3117 that834 I brought up5927 853 Israel3478 unto5704 this2088 day;3117 but have gone1961 from tent4480 168 to413 tent,168 and from one tabernacle4480 4908 to another.

6 Wheresoever3605 834 I have walked1980 with all3605 Israel,3478 spoke1696 I a word1697 to854 any259 of the judges8199 of Israel,3478 whom834 I commanded6680 to feed7462 853 my people,5971 saying,559 Why4100 have ye not3808 built1129 me a house1004 of cedars?730

7 Now6258 therefore thus3541 shalt thou say559 unto my servant5650 David,1732 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 I589 took3947 thee from4480 the sheepcote,5116 even from4480 following310 the sheep,6629 that thou shouldest be1961 ruler5057 over5921 my people5971 Israel: 3478

8 And I have been1961 with5973 thee whithersoever3605 834 thou hast walked,1980 and have cut off3772 853 all3605 thine enemies341 from before4480 6440 thee, and have made6213 thee a name8034 like the name8034 of the great men1419 that834 are in the earth.776

9 Also I will ordain7760 a place4725 for my people5971 Israel,3478 and will plant5193 them, and they shall dwell7931 in their place,8478 and shall be moved7264 no3808 more;5750 neither3808 shall the children1121 of wickedness5766 waste1086 them any more,3254 as834 at the beginning,7223

10 And since the time4480 3117 that834 I commanded6680 judges8199 to be over5921 my people5971 Israel.3478 Moreover I will subdue3665 853 all3605 thine enemies.341 Furthermore I tell5046 thee that the LORD3068 will build1129 thee a house.1004

11 And it shall come to pass,1961 when3588 thy days3117 be expired4390 that thou must go1980 to be with5973 thy fathers,1 that I will raise up6965 853 thy seed2233 after310 thee, which834 shall be1961 of thy sons;4480 1121 and I will establish3559 853 his kingdom.4438

12 He1931 shall build1129 me a house,1004 and I will establish3559 853 his throne3678 forever.5704 5769

13 I589 will be1961 his father,1 and he1931 shall be1961 my son:1121 and I will not3808 take my mercy away5493 2617 from4480 5973 him, as834 I took5493 it from him that4480 834 was1961 before6440 thee:

14 But I will settle5975 him in mine house1004 and in my kingdom4438 forever:5704 5769 and his throne3678 shall be1961 established3559 forevermore.5704 5769

15 According to all3605 these428 words,1697 and according to all3605 this2088 vision,2377 so3651 did Nathan5416 speak1696 unto413 David.1732

16 And David1732 the king4428 came935 and sat3427 before6440 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Who4310 am I,589 O LORD3068 God,430 and what4310 is mine house,1004 that3588 thou hast brought935 me hitherto?5704 1988

17 And yet this2063 was a small thing6994 in thine eyes,5869 O God;430 for thou hast also spoken1696 of5921 thy servant's5650 house1004 for a great while to come,4480 7350 and hast regarded7200 me according to the estate8448 of a man120 of high degree,4609 O LORD3068 God.430

18 What4100 can David1732 speak more3254 5750 to413 thee for the honor3519 of853 thy servant?5650 for thou859 knowest3045 853 thy servant.5650

19 O LORD,3068 for thy servant's sake,5668 5650 and according to thine own heart,3820 hast thou done6213 853 all3605 this2063 greatness,1420 in making known3045 853 all3605 these great things.1420

20 O LORD,3068 there is none369 like thee,3644 neither369 is there any God430 beside2108 thee, according to all3605 that834 we have heard8085 with our ears.241

21 And what4310 one259 nation1471 in the earth776 is like thy people5971 Israel,3478 whom834 God430 went1980 to redeem6299 to be his own people,5971 to make7760 thee a name8034 of greatness1420 and terribleness,3372 by driving out1644 nations1471 from before4480 6440 thy people,5971 whom834 thou hast redeemed6299 out of Egypt?4480 4714

22 For853 thy people5971 Israel3478 didst thou make5414 thine own people5971 forever;5704 5769 and thou,859 LORD,3068 becamest1961 their God.430

23 Therefore now,6258 LORD,3068 let the thing1697 that834 thou hast spoken1696 concerning5921 thy servant5650 and concerning5921 his house1004 be established539 forever,5704 5769 and do6213 as834 thou hast said.1696

24 Let it even be established,539 that thy name8034 may be magnified1431 forever,5704 5769 saying,559 The LORD3068 of hosts6635 is the God430 of Israel,3478 even a God430 to Israel:3478 and let the house1004 of David1732 thy servant5650 be established3559 before6440 thee.

25 For3588 thou,859 O my God,430 hast told1540 853 241 thy servant5650 that thou wilt build1129 him a house:1004 therefore5921 3651 thy servant5650 hath found4672 in his heart to pray6419 before6440 thee.

26 And now,6258 LORD,3068 thou859 art God,430 and hast promised1696 this2063 goodness2896 unto5921 thy servant: 5650

27 Now6258 therefore let it please2974 thee to bless1288 853 the house1004 of thy servant,5650 that it may be1961 before6440 thee forever:5769 for3588 thou859 blessest,1288 O LORD,3068 and it shall be blessed1288 forever.5769

1 Chronicles

Chapter 17

1 NOW it came to pass when David dwelt in his house, David said to Nathan the prophet, Behold, I dwell in a house which is covered with the beams of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD is resting in the midst of the tent of hair of goats.

2 Then Nathan said to David, Go and do all that is in your heart.

3 And it came to pass that same night, the word of the LORD came to Nathan the prophet, saying,

4 Go and thus say to my servant David, You shall not build me a house to dwell in;

5 For I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Israel out of Egypt to this day; but I moved from tent to tent.

6 Behold, wherever I have walked with all Israel, did I speak a word to any of the judges of Israel whom I commanded to judge my people Israel, saying, Why have you not built me a house which is covered with cedars?

7 Now therefore thus shall you say to my servant David, Thus says the LORD of hosts: I took you from the sheepfold, even from following the sheep, that you should be king over my people Israel;

8 And I have been with you wheresoever you went and have destroyed your enemies from before you, and I have made you a great name, like the name of the great men who are on the earth.

9 I will also appoint a place for my people Israel and will cause them to settle, and they shall dwell in their place and shall be moved no more; neither shall the wicked men carry them captive any more, as formerly.

10 And since the day that I made you a judge over my people Israel, I have given you rest from all your enemies. Moreover the LORD has declared to you that the kingdom is established for ever.

11 And it shall come to pass when your days are fulfilled that you shall go to be gathered with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come out of your loins, and I will establish him in your kingdom.

12 He shall build a house to my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

13 I 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 Saul, who was before you.

14 But I will make him a ruler in my house and in my kingdom for ever; and his throne shall be established for evermore.

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

16 And King David came and sat before the LORD and said, Who am I in thy presence, O LORD God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me to this eminence?

17 And yet this was a small thing in thine eyes, O LORD God; for thou hast also spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come; for all the men who worship thee with all their heart, thou bringest out of the darkness into the light, O LORD God.

18 What more can David boast to speak before thee? For the works of thy servant are known, O LORD God.

19 For thou knowest that which is in the heart of thy servant, that thou hast done for him all this greatness in making great thy servant.

20 Therefore I know, O LORD God, there is none like thee and there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

21 And what other nation on earth is united like thy people Israel? For thou didst reveal thyself from heaven and saved them, and for their sakes thou didst perform great and terrible wonders and brought severe plagues upon the Egyptians until thou didst bring them out from among them.

22 For thy people Israel thou didst make thine own people for ever; and thou, O LORD, didst become their God.

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

24 And let thy works be established for ever, and thy name be magnified in the world for ever, so that the people shall say, The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel; and let the house of David thy servant be established before thee for ever.

25 For thou, O my God, hast revealed the secret to thy servant, and hast said to him, Build for yourself a house; therefore thy servant has set in his heart to pray before thee this prayer.

26 And now, O LORD, thou art God, and all thy words are true, with which thou hast promised this goodness to thy servant;

27 Now therefore reveal thyself to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee for ever; for thou, O LORD God, hast spoken, and of thy blessing shall all the houses of righteous men be blessed for ever.

Chapter 17

1 Now it came to pass,1961 as834 David1732 sat3427 in his house,1004 that David1732 said559 to413 Nathan5416 the prophet,5030 Lo,2009 I595 dwell3427 in a house1004 of cedars,730 but the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 remaineth under8478 curtains.3407

1 NOW it came to pass when David dwelt in his house, David said to Nathan the prophet, Behold, I dwell in a house which is covered with the beams of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD is resting in the midst of the tent of hair of goats.

2 Then Nathan5416 said559 unto413 David,1732 Do6213 all3605 that834 is in thine heart;3824 for3588 God430 is with5973 thee.

2 Then Nathan said to David, Go and do all that is in your heart.

3 And it came to pass1961 the same1931 night,3915 that the word1697 of God430 came1961 to413 Nathan,5416 saying,559

3 And it came to pass that same night, the word of the LORD came to Nathan the prophet, saying,

4 Go1980 and tell559 413 David1732 my servant,5650 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 Thou859 shalt not3808 build1129 me a house1004 to dwell in: 3427

4 Go and thus say to my servant David, You shall not build me a house to dwell in;

5 For3588 I have not3808 dwelt3427 in a house1004 since4480 the day3117 that834 I brought up5927 853 Israel3478 unto5704 this2088 day;3117 but have gone1961 from tent4480 168 to413 tent,168 and from one tabernacle4480 4908 to another.

5 For I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Israel out of Egypt to this day; but I moved from tent to tent.

6 Wheresoever3605 834 I have walked1980 with all3605 Israel,3478 spoke1696 I a word1697 to854 any259 of the judges8199 of Israel,3478 whom834 I commanded6680 to feed7462 853 my people,5971 saying,559 Why4100 have ye not3808 built1129 me a house1004 of cedars?730

6 Behold, wherever I have walked with all Israel, did I speak a word to any of the judges of Israel whom I commanded to judge my people Israel, saying, Why have you not built me a house which is covered with cedars?

7 Now6258 therefore thus3541 shalt thou say559 unto my servant5650 David,1732 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 I589 took3947 thee from4480 the sheepcote,5116 even from4480 following310 the sheep,6629 that thou shouldest be1961 ruler5057 over5921 my people5971 Israel: 3478

7 Now therefore thus shall you say to my servant David, Thus says the LORD of hosts: I took you from the sheepfold, even from following the sheep, that you should be king over my people Israel;

8 And I have been1961 with5973 thee whithersoever3605 834 thou hast walked,1980 and have cut off3772 853 all3605 thine enemies341 from before4480 6440 thee, and have made6213 thee a name8034 like the name8034 of the great men1419 that834 are in the earth.776

8 And I have been with you wheresoever you went and have destroyed your enemies from before you, and I have made you a great name, like the name of the great men who are on the earth.

9 Also I will ordain7760 a place4725 for my people5971 Israel,3478 and will plant5193 them, and they shall dwell7931 in their place,8478 and shall be moved7264 no3808 more;5750 neither3808 shall the children1121 of wickedness5766 waste1086 them any more,3254 as834 at the beginning,7223

9 I will also appoint a place for my people Israel and will cause them to settle, and they shall dwell in their place and shall be moved no more; neither shall the wicked men carry them captive any more, as formerly.

10 And since the time4480 3117 that834 I commanded6680 judges8199 to be over5921 my people5971 Israel.3478 Moreover I will subdue3665 853 all3605 thine enemies.341 Furthermore I tell5046 thee that the LORD3068 will build1129 thee a house.1004

10 And since the day that I made you a judge over my people Israel, I have given you rest from all your enemies. Moreover the LORD has declared to you that the kingdom is established for ever.

11 And it shall come to pass,1961 when3588 thy days3117 be expired4390 that thou must go1980 to be with5973 thy fathers,1 that I will raise up6965 853 thy seed2233 after310 thee, which834 shall be1961 of thy sons;4480 1121 and I will establish3559 853 his kingdom.4438

11 And it shall come to pass when your days are fulfilled that you shall go to be gathered with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come out of your loins, and I will establish him in your kingdom.

12 He1931 shall build1129 me a house,1004 and I will establish3559 853 his throne3678 forever.5704 5769

12 He shall build a house to my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

13 I589 will be1961 his father,1 and he1931 shall be1961 my son:1121 and I will not3808 take my mercy away5493 2617 from4480 5973 him, as834 I took5493 it from him that4480 834 was1961 before6440 thee:

13 I 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 Saul, who was before you.

14 But I will settle5975 him in mine house1004 and in my kingdom4438 forever:5704 5769 and his throne3678 shall be1961 established3559 forevermore.5704 5769

14 But I will make him a ruler in my house and in my kingdom for ever; and his throne shall be established for evermore.

15 According to all3605 these428 words,1697 and according to all3605 this2088 vision,2377 so3651 did Nathan5416 speak1696 unto413 David.1732

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

16 And David1732 the king4428 came935 and sat3427 before6440 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Who4310 am I,589 O LORD3068 God,430 and what4310 is mine house,1004 that3588 thou hast brought935 me hitherto?5704 1988

16 And King David came and sat before the LORD and said, Who am I in thy presence, O LORD God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me to this eminence?

17 And yet this2063 was a small thing6994 in thine eyes,5869 O God;430 for thou hast also spoken1696 of5921 thy servant's5650 house1004 for a great while to come,4480 7350 and hast regarded7200 me according to the estate8448 of a man120 of high degree,4609 O LORD3068 God.430

17 And yet this was a small thing in thine eyes, O LORD God; for thou hast also spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come; for all the men who worship thee with all their heart, thou bringest out of the darkness into the light, O LORD God.

18 What4100 can David1732 speak more3254 5750 to413 thee for the honor3519 of853 thy servant?5650 for thou859 knowest3045 853 thy servant.5650

18 What more can David boast to speak before thee? For the works of thy servant are known, O LORD God.

19 O LORD,3068 for thy servant's sake,5668 5650 and according to thine own heart,3820 hast thou done6213 853 all3605 this2063 greatness,1420 in making known3045 853 all3605 these great things.1420

19 For thou knowest that which is in the heart of thy servant, that thou hast done for him all this greatness in making great thy servant.

20 O LORD,3068 there is none369 like thee,3644 neither369 is there any God430 beside2108 thee, according to all3605 that834 we have heard8085 with our ears.241

20 Therefore I know, O LORD God, there is none like thee and there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

21 And what4310 one259 nation1471 in the earth776 is like thy people5971 Israel,3478 whom834 God430 went1980 to redeem6299 to be his own people,5971 to make7760 thee a name8034 of greatness1420 and terribleness,3372 by driving out1644 nations1471 from before4480 6440 thy people,5971 whom834 thou hast redeemed6299 out of Egypt?4480 4714

21 And what other nation on earth is united like thy people Israel? For thou didst reveal thyself from heaven and saved them, and for their sakes thou didst perform great and terrible wonders and brought severe plagues upon the Egyptians until thou didst bring them out from among them.

22 For853 thy people5971 Israel3478 didst thou make5414 thine own people5971 forever;5704 5769 and thou,859 LORD,3068 becamest1961 their God.430

22 For thy people Israel thou didst make thine own people for ever; and thou, O LORD, didst become their God.

23 Therefore now,6258 LORD,3068 let the thing1697 that834 thou hast spoken1696 concerning5921 thy servant5650 and concerning5921 his house1004 be established539 forever,5704 5769 and do6213 as834 thou hast said.1696

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

24 Let it even be established,539 that thy name8034 may be magnified1431 forever,5704 5769 saying,559 The LORD3068 of hosts6635 is the God430 of Israel,3478 even a God430 to Israel:3478 and let the house1004 of David1732 thy servant5650 be established3559 before6440 thee.

24 And let thy works be established for ever, and thy name be magnified in the world for ever, so that the people shall say, The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel; and let the house of David thy servant be established before thee for ever.

25 For3588 thou,859 O my God,430 hast told1540 853 241 thy servant5650 that thou wilt build1129 him a house:1004 therefore5921 3651 thy servant5650 hath found4672 in his heart to pray6419 before6440 thee.

25 For thou, O my God, hast revealed the secret to thy servant, and hast said to him, Build for yourself a house; therefore thy servant has set in his heart to pray before thee this prayer.

26 And now,6258 LORD,3068 thou859 art God,430 and hast promised1696 this2063 goodness2896 unto5921 thy servant: 5650

26 And now, O LORD, thou art God, and all thy words are true, with which thou hast promised this goodness to thy servant;

27 Now6258 therefore let it please2974 thee to bless1288 853 the house1004 of thy servant,5650 that it may be1961 before6440 thee forever:5769 for3588 thou859 blessest,1288 O LORD,3068 and it shall be blessed1288 forever.5769

27 Now therefore reveal thyself to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee for ever; for thou, O LORD God, hast spoken, and of thy blessing shall all the houses of righteous men be blessed for ever.
