7:1
factum est autem cum sedisset rex in domo sua et Dominusdedisset ei requiem undique ab universis inimicis suis

7:2
dixit ad Nathan prophetam videsne quod ego habitem in domocedrina et arca Dei posita sit in medio pellium

7:3
dixitque Nathan ad regem omne quod est in corde tuo vade facquia Dominus tecum est

7:4
factum est autem in nocte illa et ecce sermo Domini adNathan dicens

7:5
vade et loquere ad servum meum David haec dicit Dominusnumquid tu aedificabis mihi domum ad habitandum

7:6
neque enim habitavi in domo ex die qua eduxi filios Israhelde terra Aegypti usque in diem hanc sed ambulans ambulabam intabernaculo et in tentorio

7:7
per cuncta loca quae transivi cum omnibus filiis Israhelnumquid loquens locutus sum ad unam de tribubus Israhel cuipraecepi ut pasceret populum meum Israhel dicens quare nonaedificastis mihi domum cedrinam

7:8
et nunc haec dices servo meo David haec dicit Dominusexercituum ego tuli te de pascuis sequentem greges ut esses duxsuper populum meum Israhel

7:9
et fui tecum in omnibus ubicumque ambulasti et interfeciuniversos inimicos tuos a facie tua fecique tibi nomen grandeiuxta nomen magnorum qui sunt in terra

7:10
et ponam locum populo meo Israhel et plantabo eum ethabitabit sub eo et non turbabitur amplius nec addent filiiiniquitatis ut adfligant eum sicut prius

7:11
ex die qua constitui iudices super populum meum Israhel etrequiem dabo tibi ab omnibus inimicis tuis praedicitque tibiDominus quod domum faciat tibi Dominus

7:12
cumque conpleti fuerint dies tui et dormieris cum patribustuis suscitabo semen tuum post te quod egredietur de utero tuoet firmabo regnum eius

7:13
ipse aedificabit domum nomini meo et stabiliam thronumregni eius usque in sempiternum

7:14
ego ero ei in patrem et ipse erit mihi in filium qui siinique aliquid gesserit arguam eum in virga virorum et inplagis filiorum hominum

7:15
misericordiam autem meam non auferam ab eo sicut abstuli aSaul quem amovi a facie tua

7:16
et fidelis erit domus tua et regnum tuum usque in aeternumante faciem tuam et thronus tuus erit firmus iugiter

7:17
secundum omnia verba haec et iuxta universam visionem istamsic locutus est Nathan ad David

7:18
ingressus est autem rex David et sedit coram Domino etdixit quis ego sum Domine Deus et quae domus mea quia adduxistime hucusque

7:19
sed et hoc parum visum est in conspectu tuo Domine Deusnisi loquereris etiam de domo servi tui in longinquum ista estenim lex Adam Domine Deus

7:20
quid ergo addere poterit adhuc David ut loquatur ad te tuenim scis servum tuum Domine Deus

7:21
propter verbum tuum et secundum cor tuum fecisti omniamagnalia haec ita ut notum faceres servo tuo

7:22
idcirco magnificatus es Domine Deus quia non est similistui neque est deus extra te in omnibus quae audivimus auribusnostris

7:23
quae est autem ut populus tuus Israhel gens in terrapropter quam ivit Deus ut redimeret eam sibi in populum etponeret sibi nomen faceretque eis magnalia et horribilia superterram a facie populi tui quem redemisti tibi ex Aegypto gentemet deum eius

7:24
et firmasti tibi populum tuum Israhel in populumsempiternum et tu Domine factus es eis in Deum

7:25
nunc ergo Domine Deus verbum quod locutus es super servumtuum et super domum eius suscita in sempiternum et fac sicutlocutus es

7:26
et magnificetur nomen tuum usque in sempiternum atquedicatur Dominus exercituum Deus super Israhel et domus servitui David erit stabilita coram Domino

7:27
quia tu Domine exercituum Deus Israhel revelasti auremservi tui dicens domum aedificabo tibi propterea invenit servustuus cor suum ut oraret te oratione hac

7:28
nunc ergo Domine Deus tu es Deus et verba tua erunt veralocutus es enim ad servum tuum bona haec

7:29
incipe igitur et benedic domui servi tui ut sit insempiternum coram te quia tu Domine Deus locutus es etbenedictione tua benedicetur domus servi tui in sempiternum

007:001
And it came to pass, when the king sat in his house, and the LORD had given him rest round about from all his enemies;

007:002
That the king said unto Nathan the prophet, See now, I dwell in an house of cedar, but the ark of God dwelleth within curtains.

007:003
And Nathan said to the king, Go, do all that is in thine heart; for the LORD is with thee.

007:004
And it came to pass that night, that the word of the LORD came unto Nathan, saying,

007:005
Go and tell my servant David, Thus saith the LORD, Shalt thou build me an house for me to dwell in?

007:006
Whereas I have not dwelt in any house since the time that I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, but have walked in a tent and in a tabernacle.

007:007
In all the places wherein I have walked with all the children of Israel spake I a word with any of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, Why build ye not me an house of cedar?

007:008
Now therefore so shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I took thee from the sheepcote, from following the sheep, to be ruler over my people, over Israel:

007:009
And I was with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies out of thy sight, and have made thee a great name, like unto the name of the great men that are in the earth.

007:010
Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime,

007:011
And as since the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel, and have caused thee to rest from all thine enemies. Also the LORD telleth thee that he will make thee an house.

007:012
And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.

007:013
He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

007:014
I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men:

007:015
But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.

007:016
And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever.

007:017
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.

007:018
Then went king David in, and sat before the LORD, and he said, Who am I, O Lord GOD? and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?

007:019
And this was yet a small thing in thy sight, O Lord GOD; but thou hast spoken also of thy servant's house for a great while to come. And is this the manner of man, O Lord GOD?

007:020
And what can David say more unto thee? for thou, Lord GOD, knowest thy servant.

007:021
For thy word's sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all these great things, to make thy servant know them.

007:022
Wherefore thou art great, O LORD God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

007:023
And what one nation in the earth is like thy people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to himself, and to make him a name, and to do for you great things and terrible, for thy land, before thy people, which thou redeemedst to thee from Egypt, from the nations and their gods?

007:024
For thou hast confirmed to thyself thy people Israel to be a people unto thee for ever: and thou, LORD, art become their God.

007:025
And now, O LORD God, the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, establish it for ever, and do as thou hast said.

007:026
And let thy name be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts is the God over Israel: and let the house of thy servant David be established before thee.

007:027
For thou, O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, hast revealed to thy servant, saying, I will build thee an house: therefore hath thy servant found in his heart to pray this prayer unto thee.

007:028
And now, O Lord GOD, thou art that God, and thy words be true, and thou hast promised this goodness unto thy servant:

007:029
Therefore now let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may continue for ever before thee: for thou, O Lord GOD, hast spoken it: and with thy blessing let the house of thy servant be blessed for ever.
