2 Samuel 7:29

7:29 Now be willing to bless your servant’s dynasty ¹  so that it may stand permanently before you, for you, O sovereign Lord, have spoken. By your blessing may your servant’s dynasty be blessed on into the future!” ² 

2 Samuel 12:8

12:8 I gave you your master’s house, and put your master’s wives into your arms. ³  I also gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if all that somehow seems insignificant, I would have given you so much more as well!

[7:29]  ¹ tn Heb “house” (again later in this verse). See the note on “dynastic house” in v. 27.

[7:29]  ² tn Or “permanently”; cf. NLT “it is an eternal blessing.”

[12:8]  ³ tn Heb “and the wives of your lord into your chest [or “lap”].” The words “I put” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons and for clarification.
