“Isn’t my house so with God?Yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant,ordered in all things, and sure,for it is all my salvation and all my desire.Won’t he make it grow?”
2 Samuel 23:5 (WEB)
Context Reading
3The God of Israel said,the Rock of Israel spoke to me,‘One who rules over men righteously,who rules in the fear of God, 4shall be as the light of the morning when the sun rises,a morning without clouds,when the tender grass springs out of the earth,through clear shining after rain.’ 5Isn’t my house so with God?Yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant,ordered in all things, and sure,for it is all my salvation and all my desire.Won’t he make it grow? 6But all the ungodly will be as thorns to be thrust away,because they can’t be taken with the hand. 7The man who touches them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear.They will be utterly burned with fire in their place.”
