7:8 “So now, say this to my servant David: ‘This is what the Lord of hosts says: I took you from the pasture and from your work as a shepherd 5 to make you leader of my people Israel. 7:9 I was with you wherever you went, and I defeated 6 all your enemies before you. Now I will make you as famous as the great men of the earth. 7 7:10 I will establish a place for my people Israel and settle 8 them there; they will live there and not be disturbed 9 any more. Violent men 10 will not oppress them again, as they did in the beginning 7:11 and during the time when I appointed judges to lead my people Israel. Instead, I will give you relief 11 from all your enemies. The Lord declares 12 to you that he himself 13 will build a dynastic house 14 for you.
