[1] When David was living in his house, David said to Nathan the prophet, “Behold, I live in a cedar house, but the ark of Yahweh’s covenant is in a tent.” [2] Nathan said to David, “Do all that is in your heart; for God is with you.” [3] That same night, the word of God came to Nathan, saying, [4] “Go and tell David my servant, ‘Yahweh says, “You shall not build me a house to dwell in; [5] for I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought up Israel to this day, but have gone from tent to tent, and from one tent to another. [6] In all places in which I have walked with all Israel, did I speak a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people, saying, ‘Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’”’ [7] “Now therefore, you shall tell my servant David, ‘Yahweh of Armies says, “I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, to be prince over my people Israel. [8] I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a name like the name of the great ones who are on the earth. [9] I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be moved no more. The children of wickedness will not waste them any more, as at the first, [10] and from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover I tell you that Yahweh will build you a house. [11] It will happen, when your days are fulfilled that you must go to be with your fathers, that I will set up your offspring after you, who will be of your sons; and I will establish his kingdom. [12] He will build me a house, and I will establish his throne forever. [13] I will be his father, and he will be my son. I will not take my loving kindness away from him, as I took it from him who was before you; [14] but I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom forever. His throne will be established forever.”’” [15] According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David. [16] Then David the king went in and sat before Yahweh; and he said, “Who am I, Yahweh God, and what is my house, that you have brought me this far? [17] This was a small thing in your eyes, O God, but you have spoken of your servant’s house for a great while to come, and have respected me according to the standard of a man of high degree, Yahweh God. [18] What can David say yet more to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? For you know your servant. [19] Yahweh, for your servant’s sake, and according to your own heart, you have done all this greatness, to make known all these great things. [20] Yahweh, there is no one like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears. [21] What one nation on the earth is like your people Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, to make you a name by great and awesome things, in driving out nations from before your people whom you redeemed out of Egypt? [22] For you made your people Israel your own people forever; and you, Yahweh, became their God. [23] Now, Yahweh, let the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, be established forever, and do as you have spoken. [24] Let your name be established and magnified forever, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel. The house of David your servant is established before you.’ [25] For you, my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house. Therefore your servant has found courage to pray before you. [26] Now, Yahweh, you are God, and have promised this good thing to your servant. [27] Now it has pleased you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Yahweh, have blessed, and it is blessed forever.”

The House of the Lord

[1] Now it came to pass, as David H1732 sat H3427 in his house, H1004 that David H1732 said H559 to Nathan H5416 the prophet, H5030 Lo, I dwell H3427 in an house H1004 of cedars, H730 but the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the Lord H3068 remaineth under curtains. H3407 [2] Then Nathan H5416 said H559 unto H413 David, H1732 Do H6213 all that is in thine heart; H3824 for H3588 God H430 is with thee. [3] And it came to pass the same night, H3915 that the word H1697 of God H430 came to Nathan, H5416 saying, H559 [4] Go H3212 and tell H559 David H1732 my servant, H5650 Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord, H3068 Thou shalt not build H1129 me an house H1004 to dwell in: H3427 [5] for H3588 I have not dwelt in H3427 an house H1004 since the day H3117 that I brought up H5927 H853 Israel H3478 unto this day; H3117 but have gone from tent H168 to tent, H168 and from one tabernacle H4908 to another. [6] Wheresoever I have walked H1980 with H854 all H3605 Israel, H3478 spake H1696 I a word H1697 to any H259 of the judges H8199 of Israel, H3478 whom H834 I commanded H6680 to feed H7462 H853 my people, H5971 saying, H559 Why have ye not built H1129 me an house H1004 of cedars? H730 [7] Now H6258 therefore thus shalt thou say H559 unto my servant H5650 David, H1732 Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H3068 of hosts, H6635 I took H3947 thee from the sheepcote, H5116 even from following H310§ the sheep, H6629 that thou shouldest be ruler H5057 over H5921 my people H5971 Israel: H3478 [8] and I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast walked, H1980 and have cut off H3772 all H3605 thine enemies H341 from before H6440 thee, and have made H6213 thee a name H8034 like the name H8034 of the great men H1419 that are in the earth. H776 [9] Also I will ordain H7760 a place H4725 for my people H5971 Israel, H3478 and will plant H5193 them, and they shall dwell H7931 in their place, and shall be moved H7264 no more; neither shall the children H1121 of wickedness H5766 waste H1086 them any more, H3254 as at the beginning, H7223 [10] and since the time H3117 that I commanded H6680 judges H8199 to be over my people H5971 Israel. H3478 Moreover I will subdue H3665 all H3605 thine enemies. H341 Furthermore I tell H5046 thee that the Lord H3068 will build H1129 thee an house. H1004 [11] And it shall come to pass, when thy days H3117 be expired H4390 that thou must go H3212 to be with thy fathers, H1 that I will raise up H6965 H853 thy seed H2233 after H310 thee, which shall be of thy sons; H1121 and I will establish H3559 H853 his kingdom. H4438 [12] He shall build H1129 me an house, H1004 and I will stablish H3559 H853 his throne H3678 for H5704 ever. H5769 [13] I will be his father, H1 and he shall be my son: H1121 and I will not take H5493 my mercy H2617 away H5493 from him, as I took H5493 it from him that was before H6440 thee: [14] but I will settle H5975 him in mine house H1004 and in my kingdom H4438 for ever: H5769 and his throne H3678 shall be established H3559 for H5704 evermore. H5769 [15] According to all these words, H1697 and according to all this vision, H2377 so H3651 did Nathan H5416 speak H1696 unto H413 David. H1732 [16] And David H1732 the king H4428 came H935 and sat H3427 before H6440 the Lord, H3068 and said, H559 Who am I, O Lord H3068 God, H430 and what is mine house, H1004 that thou hast brought H935 me hitherto? H1988 [17] And yet this was a small thing H6994 in thine eyes, H5869 O God; H430 for thou hast also spoken H1696 of thy servant’s H5650 house H1004 for a great while to come, H7350 and hast regarded H7200 me according to the estate H8448 of a man H120 of high degree, H4609 O Lord H3068 God. H430 [18] What H4100 can H3254 David H1732 speak more H3254 to thee for the honour H3519 of thy servant? H5650 for thou knowest H3045 thy servant. H5650 [19] O Lord, H3068 for thy servant’s H5650 sake, and according to thine own heart, H3820 hast thou done H6213 all H3605 this H2063 greatness, H1420 in making known H3045 all these great things.§ H1420 [20] O Lord, H3068 there is none like thee, neither is there any God H430 beside H2108 thee, according to all that we have heard H8085 with our ears. H241 [21] And what one H259 nation H1471 in the earth H776 is like thy people H5971 Israel, H3478 whom H834 God H430 went H1980 to redeem H6299 to be his own people, H5971 to make H7760 thee a name H8034 of greatness H1420 and terribleness, H3372 by driving out H1644 nations H1471 from before H6440 thy people, H5971 whom H834 thou hast redeemed H6299 out of Egypt? H4714 [22] For thy people H5971 Israel H3478 didst thou make H5414 thine own people H5971 for H5704 ever; H5769 and thou, Lord, H3068 becamest their God. H430 [23] Therefore now, Lord, H3068 let the thing H1697 that thou hast spoken H1696 concerning H5921 thy servant H5650 and concerning his house H1004 be established H539 for H5704 ever, H5769 and do H6213 as thou hast said. H1696 [24] Let it even be established, H539 that thy name H8034 may be magnified H1431 for H5704 ever, H5769 saying, H559 The Lord H3068 of hosts H6635 is the God H430 of Israel, H3478 even a God H430 to Israel: H3478 and let the house H1004 of David H1732 thy servant H5650 be established H3559 before H6440 thee. [25] For H3588 thou, O my God, H430 hast told H1540 H241 thy servant H5650 that thou wilt build H1129 him an house: H1004 therefore thy servant H5650 hath found H4672 in his heart to pray H6419 before H6440 thee. [26] And now, Lord, H3068 thou art God, H430 and hast promised H1696 this H2063 goodness H2896 unto thy servant: H5650 [27] now H6258 therefore let it please H2974 thee to bless H1288 H853 the house H1004 of thy servant, H5650 that it may be before H6440 thee for ever: H5769 for thou blessest, H1288 O Lord, H3068 and it shall be blessed H1288 for ever.
