And Samuel H8050 said H559 to him, The LORD H3068 has rent H7167 the kingdom H4468 of Israel H3478 from you this day, H3117 and has given H5414 it to a neighbor H7453 of yours, that is better H2896 than you.

And as since H4480 the time H3117 that I commanded H6680 judges H8199 to be over H5921 my people H5971 Israel, H3478 and have caused you to rest H5117 from all H3605 your enemies. H341 Also the LORD H3068 tells H5046 you that he will make H6213 you an house. H1004

And your house H1004 and your kingdom H4467 shall be established H539 for ever H5769 before H6440 you: your throne H3678 shall be established H3559 for ever. H5769

For you, O LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 God H430 of Israel, H3478 have revealed H1540 to your servant, H5650 saying, H559 I will build H1129 you an house: H1004 therefore has your servant H5650 found H4672 in his heart H3820 to pray H6419 this H2063 prayer H8605 to you.

Then I will establish H6965 the throne H3678 of your kingdom H4467 on Israel H3478 for ever, H5769 as I promised H1696 to David H1732 your father, H1 saying, H559 There shall not fail H3772 you a man H376 on the throne H3678 of Israel. H3478

And since the time H3117 that I commanded H6680 judges H8199 to be over H5921 my people H5971 Israel. H3478 Moreover I will subdue H3665 all H3605 your enemies. H341 Furthermore I tell H5046 you that the LORD H3068 will build H1129 you an house. H1004

For you, O my God, H430 have told H1540 your servant H5650 that you will build H1129 him an house: H1004 therefore H5921 H3651 your servant H5650 has found H4672 in his heart H3820 to pray H6419 before H6440 you.

His seed H2233 also will I make H7760 to endure for ever, H5703 and his throne H3678 as the days H3117 of heaven. H8064

And all H3605 this H2088 assembly H6951 shall know H3045 that the LORD H3068 saves H3467 not with sword H2719 and spear: H2595 for the battle H4421 is the LORD's, H3068 and he will give H5414 you into our hands. H3027

And Saul H7586 said H559 to David, H1732 Behold H2009 my elder H1419 daughter H1323 Merab, H4764 her will I give H5414 you to wife: H802 only H389 be you valiant H1121 H2428 for me, and fight H3898 the LORD's H3068 battles. H4421 For Saul H7586 said, H559 Let not my hand H3027 be on him, but let the hand H3027 of the Philistines H6430 be on him.

Also H1571 in time H865 H8543 past, H8032 when Saul H7586 was king H4428 over H5921 us, you were H1961 he that led H3318 out and brought H935 in Israel: H3478 and the LORD H3068 said H559 to you, You shall feed H7462 my people H5971 Israel, H3478 and you shall be a captain H5057 over H5921 Israel. H3478

And he said, H559 Listen H7181 you, all H3605 Judah, H3063 and you inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem, H3389 and you king H4428 Jehoshaphat, H3092 Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 to you, Be not afraid H3372 nor H408 dismayed H2865 by reason H6440 of this H2088 great H7227 multitude; H1995 for the battle H4421 is not yours, but God's. H430

Finally, G3063 my brothers, G80 be strong G1743 in the Lord, G2962 and in the power G2904 of his might. G2479

Put G1746 on G1746 the whole armor G3833 of God, G2316 that you may be able G1410 to stand G2476 against G4314 the wiles G3180 of the devil. G1228

And he said H559 to his men, H582 The LORD H3068 forbid H2486 that I should do H6213 this H2088 thing H1697 to my master, H113 the LORD's H3068 anointed, H4899 to stretch H7971 forth my hand H3027 against him, seeing he is the anointed H4899 of the LORD. H3068

So David H1732 stayed H8156 his servants H582 with these words, H1697 and suffered H5414 them not to rise H6965 against H413 Saul. H7586 But Saul H7586 rose H6965 up out of the cave, H4631 and went H3212 on his way. H1870

Moreover, my father, H1 see, H7200 yes, H637 see H7200 the skirt H3671 of your robe H4598 in my hand: H3027 for in that I cut H3772 off the skirt H3671 of your robe, H4598 and killed H2026 you not, know H3045 you and see H7200 that there is neither H369 evil H7451 nor transgression H6588 in my hand, H3027 and I have not sinned H2398 against you; yet you hunt H6658 my soul H5315 to take H3947 it.

And he said H559 to David, H1732 You are more righteous H6662 than I: for you have rewarded H1580 me good, H2896 whereas I have rewarded H1580 you evil. H7451

Because H834 David H1732 did H6213 that which was right H3477 in the eyes H5869 of the LORD, H3068 and turned H5493 not aside from any H3605 thing that he commanded H6680 him all H3605 the days H3117 of his life, H2416 save only H7535 in the matter H1697 of Uriah H223 the Hittite. H2850

ALEPH. Blessed H835 are the undefiled H8549 in the way, H1870 who walk H1980 in the law H8451 of the LORD. H3068

They also H637 do H6466 no H3808 iniquity: H5766 they walk H1980 in his ways. H1870

Let your G5216 light G5457 so G3779 shine G2989 before G1715 men, G444 that they may see G1492 your G5216 good G2570 works, G2041 and glorify G1392 your G5216 Father G3962 which G3588 is in heaven. G3772

And we indeed G3303 justly; G1346 for we receive G618 the due G514 reward G514 of our deeds: G3739 G4238 but this G3778 man has done G4238 nothing G3762 amiss. G824

Now G1161 when the centurion G1543 saw G1492 what G3588 was done, G1096 he glorified G1392 God, G2316 saying, G3004 Certainly G3689 this G3778 was a righteous G1342 man. G444
