And [David] made
<06213> (8799)

None ought to carry

<05375> (8800)

the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>_,

and to minister

<05992>

the chief
<08269>_,

and his brethren
<0251>

an hundred
<03967>

and twelve
<08147> <06240>_.

15:11

And David
<01732>

called
<07121> (8799)

for Zadok

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Ye [are] the chief
<07218>

of the fathers
<01>

of the Levites
<03881>_:

sanctify
<06942> (8690)

yourselves, [both] ye and your brethren
<0251>_,

that ye may bring up
<05927> (8689)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

unto [the place that] I have prepared
<03559> (8689)

for it.

15:13

For because ye [did it] not at the first
<07223>_,

the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

made a breach
<06555> (8804)

upon us, for that we sought
<01875> (8804)

him not after the due order
<04941>_.

15:14

So the priests
<03548>

and the Levites
<03881>

sanctified
<06942> (8691)

themselves to bring up
<05927> (8687)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_.

15:15

And the children
<01121>

of the Levites
<03881>

bare
<05375> (8799)

the ark
<0727>

<0430>

upon their shoulders
<03802>

with the staves
<04133>

thereon, as Moses
<04872>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

according to the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

15:16

And David
<01732>

spake
<0559> (8799)

<06963>

with joy
<08057>_.

15:17

So the Levites
<03881>

appointed

<0466>_,

and Mikneiah
<04737>_,

and Obededom
<05654>_,

and Jeiel
<03273>_,

and Azaziah
<05812>_,

with harps
<03658>

on the Sheminith
<08067>

to excel
<05329> (8763)_.

{on the...: or, on the eighth to oversee}

15:22

And Chenaniah
<03663>_,

chief
<08269>

of the Levites
<03881>_,

[was] for song
<04853>_:

he instructed
<03256>

about the song
<04853>_,

because he [was] skilful
<0995> (8688)_.

{was for...: or, was for the carriage: he instructed about the carriage} {song: Heb. lifting up}

15:23

And Berechiah
<01296>

and Elkanah
<0511>

[were] doorkeepers
<07778>

for the ark
<0727>_.

15:24

And Shebaniah

<03146>_,

and Nethaneel
<05417>_,

and Amasai
<06022>_,

and Zechariah
<02148>_,

and Benaiah
<01141>_,

and Eliezer
<0461>_,

the priests
<03548>_,

did blow
<02690> (8688) (8675) <02690> (8764)

with the trumpets
<02689>

before
<06440>

the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>_:

and Obededom
<05654>

and Jehiah
<03174>

[were] doorkeepers
<07778>

for the ark
<0727>_.

15:25

So David
<01732>_,

and the elders
<02205>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and the captains
<08269>

over thousands
<0505>_,

went
<01980> (8802)

to bring up
<05927> (8687)

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

out of the house
<01004>

of Obededom
<05654>

with joy
<08057>_.

15:26

And it came to pass, when God
<0430>

helped
<05826> (8800)

the Levites
<03881>

that bare
<05375> (8802)

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

that they offered
<02076> (8799)

seven
<07651>

bullocks
<06499>

and seven
<07651>

rams
<0352>_.

15:27

And David
<01732>

[was] clothed
<03736> (8794)

with a robe
<04598>

of fine linen
<0948>_,

and all the Levites
<03881>

that bare
<05375> (8802)

the ark
<0727>_,

and the singers
<07891> (8789)_,

and Chenaniah
<03663>

the master
<08269>

of the song
<04853>

with the singers
<07891> (8789)_:

David
<01732>

also [had] upon him an ephod
<0646>

of linen
<0906>_.

{song: or, carriage}

15:28

Thus all Israel
<03478>

brought up
<05927> (8688)

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

with shouting
<08643>_,

and with sound
<06963>

of the cornet
<07782>_,

and with trumpets
<02689>_,

and with cymbals
<04700>_,

making a noise
<08085> (8688)

with psalteries
<05035>

and harps
<03658>_.

15:29

And it came to pass, [as] the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

came
<0935> (8804)

to the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_,

that Michal
<04324>

the daughter
<01323>

of Saul
<07586>

looking out
<08259> (8738)

at a window
<02474>

saw
<07200> (8799)

king
<04428>

David
<01732>

dancing
<07540> (8764)

and playing
<07832> (8764)_:

and she despised
<0959> (8799)

him in her heart
<03820>_.

16:1

So they brought
<0935> (8686)

the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>_,

and set
<03322> (8686)

it in the midst
<08432>

of the tent
<0168>

that David
<01732>

had pitched
<05186> (8804)

for it: and they offered
<07126> (8686)

burnt sacrifices
<05930>

and peace offerings
<08002>

before
<06440>

God
<0430>_.

16:2

And when David
<01732>

had made an end
<03615> (8762)

of offering
<05927> (8687)

the burnt offerings
<05930>

and the peace offerings
<08002>_,

he blessed
<01288> (8762)

the people
<05971>

in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

16:3

And he dealt
<02505> (8762)

to every one
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>_,

both man
<0376>

and woman
<0802>_,

to every one
<0376>

a loaf
<03603>

of bread
<03899>_,

and a good piece of flesh
<0829>_,

and a flagon
<0809>

[of wine].

16:4

And he appointed
<05414> (8799)

[certain] of the Levites
<03881>

to minister
<08334> (8764)

before
<06440>

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and to record
<02142> (8687)_,

and to thank
<03034> (8687)

and praise
<01984> (8763)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_:

16:5

Asaph
<0623>

the chief
<07218>_,

and next
<04932>

to him Zechariah
<02148>_,

Jeiel
<03273>_,

and Shemiramoth
<08070>_,

and Jehiel
<03171>_,

and Mattithiah
<04993>_,

and Eliab
<0446>_,

and Benaiah
<01141>_,

and Obededom
<05654>_:

and Jeiel
<03273>

with psalteries
<05035> <03627>

and with harps
<03658>_;

but Asaph
<0623>

made a sound
<08085> (8688)

with cymbals
<04700>_;

{with psalteries...: Heb. with instruments of psalteries and harps}

16:6

Benaiah
<01141>

also and Jahaziel
<03166>

the priests
<03548>

with trumpets
<02689>

continually
<08548>

before
<06440>

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of God
<0430>_.

16:7

Then on that day
<03117>

David
<01732>

delivered
<05414> (8804)

first
<07218>

[this psalm] to thank
<03034> (8687)

the LORD
<03068>

into the hand
<03027>

of Asaph
<0623>

and his brethren
<0251>_.

16:8

Give thanks
<03034> (8685)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

call
<07121> (8798)

upon his name
<08034>_,

make known
<03045> (8685)

his deeds
<05949>

among the people
<05971>_.

16:9

Sing
<07891> (8798)

unto him, sing psalms
<02167> (8761)

unto him, talk
<07878> (8798)

ye of all his wondrous
<06381> (8737)

works.

16:10

Glory
<01984> (8690)

ye in his holy
<06944>

name
<08034>_:

let the heart
<03820>

of them rejoice
<08055> (8799)

that seek
<01245> (8764)

the LORD
<03068>_.

16:11

Seek
<01875> (8798)

the LORD
<03068>

and his strength
<05797>_,

seek
<01245> (8761)

his face
<06440>

continually
<08548>_.

16:12

Remember
<02142> (8798)

his marvellous
<06381> (8737)

works that he hath done
<06213> (8804)_,

his wonders
<04159>_,

and the judgments
<04941>

of his mouth
<06310>_;

16:13

O ye seed
<02233>

of Israel
<03478>

his servant
<05650>_,

ye children
<01121>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

his chosen ones
<0972>_.

16:14

He [is] the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_;

his judgments
<04941>

[are] in all the earth
<0776>_.

16:15

Be ye mindful
<02142> (8798)

always
<05769>

of his covenant
<01285>_;

the word
<01697>

[which] he commanded
<06680> (8765)

to a thousand
<0505>

generations
<01755>_;

16:16

[Even of the covenant] which he made
<03772> (8804)

with Abraham
<085>_,

and of his oath
<07621>

unto Isaac
<03327>_;

16:17

And hath confirmed
<05975> (8686)

the same to Jacob
<03290>

for a law
<02706>_,

[and] to Israel
<03478>

[for] an everlasting
<05769>

covenant
<01285>_,

16:18

Saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Unto thee will I give
<05414> (8799)

the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

the lot
<02256>

of your inheritance
<05159>_;

{the lot: Heb. the cord}

16:19

When ye were but few
<04557> <04962>_,

even a few
<04592>_,

and strangers
<01481> (8802)

in it. {few, even: Heb. men of number, etc}

16:20

And [when] they went
<01980> (8691)

from nation
<01471>

to nation
<01471>_,

and from [one] kingdom
<04467>

to another
<0312>

people
<05971>_;

16:21

He suffered
<03240> (8689)

no man
<0376>

to do them wrong
<06231> (8800)_:

yea, he reproved
<03198> (8686)

kings
<04428>

for their sakes,

16:22

[Saying], Touch
<05060> (8799)

not mine anointed
<04899>_,

and do my prophets
<05030>

no harm
<07489> (8686)_.

16:23

Sing
<07891> (8798)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

all the earth
<0776>_;

shew forth
<01319> (8761)

from day
<03117>

to day
<03117>

his salvation
<03444>_.

16:24

Declare
<05608> (8761)

his glory
<03519>

among the heathen
<01471>_;

his marvellous works
<06381> (8737)

among all nations
<05971>_.

16:25

For great
<01419>

[is] the LORD
<03068>_,

and greatly
<03966>

to be praised
<01984> (8794)_:

he also [is] to be feared
<03372> (8737)

above all gods
<0430>_.

16:26

For all the gods
<0430>

of the people
<05971>

[are] idols
<0457>_:

but the LORD
<03068>

made
<06213> (8804)

the heavens
<08064>_.

16:27

Glory
<01935>

and honour
<01926>

[are] in his presence
<06440>_;

strength
<05797>

and gladness
<02304>

[are] in his place
<04725>_.

16:28

Give
<03051> (8798)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

ye kindreds
<04940>

of the people
<05971>_,

give
<03051> (8798)

unto the LORD
<03068>

glory
<03519>

and strength
<05797>_.

16:29

Give
<03051> (8798)

unto the LORD
<03068>

the glory
<03519>

[due] unto his name
<08034>_:

bring
<05375> (8798)

an offering
<04503>_,

and come
<0935> (8798)

before
<06440>

him: worship
<07812> (8690)

the LORD
<03068>

in the beauty
<01927>

of holiness
<06944>_.

16:30

Fear
<02342> (8798)

before
<06440>

him, all the earth
<0776>_:

the world
<08398>

also shall be stable
<03559> (8735)_,

that it be not moved
<04131> (8735)_.

16:31

Let the heavens
<08064>

be glad
<08055> (8799)_,

and let the earth
<0776>

rejoice
<01523> (8799)_:

and let [men] say
<0559> (8799)

among the nations
<01471>_,

The LORD
<03068>

reigneth
<04427> (8804)_.

16:32

Let the sea
<03220>

roar
<07481> (8799)_,

and the fulness
<04393>

thereof: let the fields
<07704>

rejoice
<05970> (8799)_,

and all that [is] therein.

16:33

Then shall the trees
<06086>

of the wood
<03293>

sing out
<07442> (8762)

at the presence
<06440>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

because he cometh
<0935> (8804)

to judge
<08199> (8800)

the earth
<0776>_.

16:34

O give thanks
<03034> (8685)

unto the LORD
<03068>_;

for [he is] good
<02896>_;

for his mercy
<02617>

[endureth] for ever
<05769>_.

16:35

And say
<0559> (8798)

ye, Save
<03467> (8685)

us, O God
<0430>

of our salvation
<03468>_,

and gather us together
<06908> (8761)_,

and deliver
<05337> (8685)

us from the heathen
<01471>_,

that we may give thanks
<03034> (8687)

to thy holy
<06944>

name
<08034>_,

[and] glory
<07623> (8692)

in thy praise
<08416>_.

16:36

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

for ever
<05769>

and ever
<05769>_.

And all the people
<05971>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Amen
<0543>_,

and praised
<01984> (8763)

the LORD
<03068>_.

16:37

So he left
<05800> (8799)

there before
<06440>

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

Asaph
<0623>

and his brethren
<0251>_,

to minister
<08334> (8763)

before
<06440>

the ark
<0727>

continually
<08548>_,

as every day's
<03117>

work
<01697>

required
<03117>_:

16:38

And Obededom
<05654>

with their brethren
<0251>_,

threescore
<08346>

and eight
<08083>_;

Obededom
<05654>

also the son
<01121>

of Jeduthun
<03038>

and Hosah
<02621>

[to be] porters
<07778>_:

16:39

And Zadok
<06659>

the priest
<03548>_,

and his brethren
<0251>

the priests
<03548>_,

before
<06440>

the tabernacle
<04908>

of the LORD
<03068>

in the high place
<01116>

that [was] at Gibeon
<01391>_,

16:40

To offer
<05927> (8687)

burnt offerings
<05930>

unto the LORD
<03068>

upon the altar
<04196>

of the burnt offering
<05930>

continually
<08548>

morning
<01242>

and evening
<06153>_,

and [to do] according to all that is written
<03789> (8803)

in the law
<08451>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which he commanded
<06680> (8765)

Israel
<03478>_;

{morning...: Heb. in the morning, and in the evening}

16:41

And with them Heman
<01968>

and Jeduthun
<03038>_,

and the rest
<07605>

that were chosen
<01305> (8803)_,

who were expressed
<05344> (8738)

by name
<08034>_,

to give thanks
<03034> (8687)

to the LORD
<03068>_,

because his mercy
<02617>

[endureth] for ever
<05769>_;

16:42

And with them Heman
<01968>

and Jeduthun
<03038>

with trumpets
<02689>

and cymbals
<04700>

for those that should make a sound
<08085> (8688)_,

and with musical
<07892>

instruments
<03627>

of God
<0430>_.

And the sons
<01121>

of Jeduthun
<03038>

[were] porters
<08179>_.

{porters: Heb. for the gate}

16:43

And all the people
<05971>

departed
<03212> (8799)

every man
<0376>

to his house
<01004>_:

and David
<01732>

returned
<05437> (8735)

to bless
<01288> (8763)

his house
<01004>_.

17:1

Now it came to pass, as David
<01732>

sat
<03427> (8804)

in his house
<01004>_,

that David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Nathan
<05416>

the prophet
<05030>_,

Lo, I dwell
<03427> (8802)

in an house
<01004>

of cedars
<0730>_,

but the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

[remaineth] under curtains
<03407>_.

17:2

Then Nathan
<05416>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto David
<01732>_,

Do
<06213> (8798)

all that [is] in thine heart
<03824>_;

for God
<0430>

[is] with thee.

17:3

And it came to pass the same night
<03915>_,

that the word
<01697>

of God
<0430>

came to Nathan
<05416>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

17:4

Go
<03212> (8798)

and tell
<0559> (8804)

David
<01732>

my servant
<05650>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Thou shalt not build
<01129> (8799)

me an house
<01004>

to dwell in
<03427> (8800)_:

17:5

For I have not dwelt in
<03427> (8804)

an house
<01004>

since the day
<03117>

that I brought up
<05927> (8689)

Israel
<03478>

unto this day
<03117>_;

but have gone from tent
<0168>

to tent
<0168>_,

and from [one] tabernacle
<04908>

[to another]. {have gone: Heb. have been}

17:6

Wheresoever I have walked
<01980> (8694)

with all Israel
<03478>_,

spake
<01696> (8765)

I a word
<01697>

to any
<0259>

of the judges
<08199> (8802)

of Israel
<03478>_,

whom I commanded
<06680> (8765)

to feed
<07462> (8800)

my people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Why have ye not built
<01129> (8804)

me an house
<01004>

of cedars
<0730>_?

17:7

Now therefore thus shalt thou say
<0559> (8799)

unto my servant
<05650>

David
<01732>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

I took
<03947> (8804)

thee from the sheepcote
<05116>_,

[even] from following
<0310>

the sheep
<06629>_,

that thou shouldest be ruler
<05057>

over my people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_:

{from following: Heb. from after}

17:8

And I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast walked
<01980> (8804)_,

and have cut off
<03772> (8686)

all thine enemies
<0341> (8802)

from before
<06440>

thee, and have made
<06213> (8804)

thee a name
<08034>

like the name
<08034>

of the great men
<01419>

that [are] in the earth
<0776>_.

17:9

Also I will ordain
<07760> (8804)

a place
<04725>

for my people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_,

and will plant
<05193> (8804)

them, and they shall dwell
<07931> (8804)

in their place, and shall be moved
<07264> (8799)

no more; neither shall the children
<01121>

of wickedness
<05766>

waste
<01086> (8763)

them any more
<03254> (8686)_,

as at the beginning
<07223>_,

17:10

And since the time
<03117>

that I commanded
<06680> (8765)

judges
<08199> (8802)

[to be] over my people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_.

Moreover I will subdue
<03665> (8689)

all thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_.

Furthermore I tell
<05046> (8686)

thee that the LORD
<03068>

will build
<01129> (8799)

thee an house
<01004>_.

17:11

And it shall come to pass, when thy days
<03117>

be expired
<04390> (8804)

that thou must go
<03212> (8800)

[to be] with thy fathers
<01>_,

that I will raise up
<06965> (8689)

thy seed
<02233>

after
<0310>

thee, which shall be of thy sons
<01121>_;

and I will establish
<03559> (8689)

his kingdom
<04438>_.

17:12

He shall build
<01129> (8799)

me an house
<01004>_,

and I will stablish
<03559> (8790)

his throne
<03678>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

17:13

I will be his father
<01>_,

and he shall be my son
<01121>_:

and I will not take
<05493> (0)

my mercy
<02617>

away
<05493> (8686)

from him, as I took
<05493> (8689)

[it] from [him] that was before
<06440>

thee:

17:14

But I will settle
<05975> (8689)

him in mine house
<01004>

and in my kingdom
<04438>

for ever
<05769>_:

and his throne
<03678>

shall be established
<03559> (8737)

for
<05704>

evermore
<05769>_.

17:15

According to all these words
<01697>_,

and according to all this vision
<02377>_,

so did Nathan
<05416>

speak
<01696> (8765)

unto David
<01732>_.

17:16

And David
<01732>

the king
<04428>

came
<0935> (8799)

and sat
<03427> (8799)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who [am] I, O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>_,

and what [is] mine house
<01004>_,

that thou hast brought
<0935> (8689)

me hitherto
<01988>_?

17:17

And [yet] this was a small thing
<06994> (8799)

in thine eyes
<05869>_,

O God
<0430>_;

for thou hast [also] spoken
<01696> (8762)

of thy servant's
<05650>

house
<01004>

for a great while to come
<07350>_,

and hast regarded
<07200> (8804)

me according to the estate
<08448>

of a man
<0120>

of high degree
<04609>_,

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>_.

17:18

What can
<03254> (0)

David
<01732>

[speak] more
<03254> (8686)

to thee for the honour
<03519>

of thy servant
<05650>_?

for thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

thy servant
<05650>_.

17:19

O LORD
<03068>_,

for thy servant's
<05650>

sake, and according to thine own heart
<03820>_,

hast thou done
<06213> (8804)

all this greatness
<01420>_,

in making known
<03045> (8687)

all [these] great things
<01420>_.

{great...: Heb. greatnesses}

17:20

O LORD
<03068>_,

[there is] none like thee, neither [is there any] God
<0430>

beside
<02108>

thee, according to all that we have heard
<08085> (8804)

with our ears
<0241>_.

17:21

And what one
<0259>

nation
<01471>

in the earth
<0776>

[is] like thy people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_,

whom God
<0430>

went
<01980> (8804)

to redeem
<06299> (8800)

[to be] his own people
<05971>_,

to make
<07760> (8800)

thee a name
<08034>

of greatness
<01420>

and terribleness
<03372> (8737)_,

by driving out
<01644> (8763)

nations
<01471>

from before
<06440>

thy people
<05971>_,

whom thou hast redeemed
<06299> (8804)

out of Egypt
<04714>_?

17:22

For thy people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>

didst thou make
<05414> (8799)

thine own people
<05971>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_;

and thou, LORD
<03068>_,

becamest their God
<0430>_.

17:23

Therefore now, LORD
<03068>_,

let the thing
<01697>

that thou hast spoken
<01696> (8765)

concerning thy servant
<05650>

and concerning his house
<01004>

be established
<0539> (8735)

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_,

and do
<06213> (8798)

as thou hast said
<01696> (8765)_.

17:24

Let it even be established
<0539> (8735)_,

that thy name
<08034>

may be magnified
<01431> (8799)

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>

[is] the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

[even] a God
<0430>

to Israel
<03478>_:

and [let] the house
<01004>

of David
<01732>

thy servant
<05650>

[be] established
<03559> (8737)

before
<06440>

thee.

17:25

For thou, O my God
<0430>_,

hast told
<01540> (8804) <0241>

thy servant
<05650>

that thou wilt build
<01129> (8800)

him an house
<01004>_:

therefore thy servant
<05650>

hath found
<04672> (8804)

[in his heart] to pray
<06419> (8692)

before
<06440>

thee. {hast...: Heb. hast revealed the ear of thy servant}

17:26

And now, LORD
<03068>_,

thou art God
<0430>_,

and hast promised
<01696> (8762)

this goodness
<02896>

unto thy servant
<05650>_:

17:27

Now therefore let it please
<02974> (8689)

thee to bless
<01288> (8763)

the house
<01004>

of thy servant
<05650>_,

that it may be before
<06440>

thee for ever
<05769>_:

for thou blessest
<01288> (8765)_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

and [it shall be] blessed
<01288> (8794)

for ever
<05769>_.

{let...: or, it hath pleased thee}
