And David H1732 built H1129 there H8033 an altar H4196 to the LORD, H3068 and offered H5927 burnt H5930 offerings and peace H8002 offerings. So the LORD H3068 was entreated H6279 for the land, H776 and the plague H4046 was stayed H6113 from Israel. H3478

But Levi H3878 and Benjamin H1144 counted H6485 he not among H8432 them: for the king's H4428 word H1697 was abominable H8581 to Joab. H3097

And the officers H7860 shall speak H1696 to the people, H5971 saying, H559 What H4310 man H376 is there that has built H1129 a new H2319 house, H1004 and has not dedicated H2596 it? let him go H3212 and return H7725 to his house, H1004 lest H6435 he die H4191 in the battle, H4421 and another H312 man H376 dedicate H2596 it.

And Hiram H2438 king H4428 of Tyre H6865 sent H7971 messengers H4397 to David, H1732 and cedar H730 trees, H6086 and carpenters, H2796 H6086 and masons: H2796 H68 and they built H1129 David H1732 an house. H1004

Then David H1732 returned H7725 to bless H1288 his household. H1004 And Michal H4324 the daughter H1323 of Saul H7586 came H3318 out to meet H7125 David, H1732 and said, H559 How H4100 glorious H3513 was the king H4428 of Israel H3478 to day, H3117 who H834 uncovered H1540 himself to day H3117 in the eyes H5869 of the handmaids H519 of his servants, H5650 as one H259 of the vain H7386 fellows shamelessly H1540 uncovers H1540 himself!

That the king H4428 said H559 to Nathan H5416 the prophet, H5030 See H7200 now, H4994 I dwell H3427 in an house H1004 of cedar, H730 but the ark H727 of God H430 dwells H3427 within H8432 curtains. H3407

And David H1732 came H935 to his house H1004 at Jerusalem; H3389 and the king H4428 took H3947 the ten H6235 women H802 his concubines, H6370 whom H834 he had left H5117 to keep H8104 the house, H1004 and put H5414 them in ward, H4931 and fed H3557 them, but went H935 not in to them. So they were shut H6887 up to the day H3117 of their death, H4191 living H2424 in widowhood. H491

O magnify H1431 the LORD H3068 with me, and let us exalt H7311 his name H8034 together. H3162

I sought H1875 the LORD, H3068 and he heard H6030 me, and delivered H5337 me from all H3605 my fears. H4035

I cried H7121 to him with my mouth, H6310 and he was extolled H7318 with my tongue. H3956

David's H1732 Psalm of praise. H8416 I will extol H7311 you, my God, H430 O king; H4428 and I will bless H1288 your name H8034 for ever H5769 and ever. H5703

Now H3705 I Nebuchadnezzar H5020 praise H7624 and extol H7313 and honor H1922 the King H4430 of heaven, H8065 all H3606 whose H1768 works H4567 are truth, H7187 and his ways H735 judgment: H1780 and those H1768 that walk H1981 in pride H1466 he is able H3202 to abase. H8214

And now H6258 shall my head H7218 be lifted H7311 up above H5921 my enemies H341 round H5439 about me: therefore will I offer H2076 in his tabernacle H168 sacrifices H2077 of joy; H8643 I will sing, H7891 yes, I will sing H2167 praises to the LORD. H3068

Save H3467 your people, H5971 and bless H1288 your inheritance: H5159 feed H7462 them also, and lift H5375 them up for ever. H5769

Lest H6435 my enemy H341 say, H559 I have prevailed H3201 against him; and those that trouble H6862 me rejoice H1523 when H3588 I am moved. H4131

O my God, H430 I trust H982 in you: let me not be ashamed, H954 let not my enemies H341 triumph H5970 over me.

Let not them that are my enemies H341 wrongfully H8267 rejoice H8055 over me: neither let them wink H7169 with the eye H5869 that hate H8130 me without H2600 a cause. H2600

Judge H8199 me, O LORD H3068 my God, H430 according to your righteousness; H6664 and let them not rejoice H8055 over me.

Let them not say H559 in their hearts, H3820 Ah, H253 so would H5315 we have it: let them not say, H559 We have swallowed H1104 him up.

By this H2063 I know H3045 that you favor H2654 me, because H3588 my enemy H341 does not triumph H7321 over H5921 me.

We are become H1961 a reproach H2781 to our neighbors, H7934 a scorn H3933 and derision H7047 to them that are round H5439 about us.

Why H4100 should the heathen H1471 say, H559 Where H346 is their God? H430 let him be known H3045 among the heathen H1471 in our sight H5869 by the revenging H5360 of the blood H1818 of your servants H5650 which is shed. H8210

All H3605 that pass H5674 by the way H1870 spoil H8155 him: he is a reproach H2781 to his neighbors. H7934

You have also H637 turned H7725 the edge H6697 of his sword, H2719 and have not made him to stand H6965 in the battle. H4421

The days H3117 of his youth H5934 have you shortened: H7114 you have covered H5844 him with shame. H955 Selah. H5542

Grant H5414 not, O LORD, H3068 the desires H3970 of the wicked: H7563 further H6329 not his wicked H2162 device; lest they exalt H7311 themselves. Selah. H5542

All H3605 that pass H5674 by clap H5606 their hands H3709 at H5921 you; they hiss H8319 and wag H5128 their head H7218 at H5921 the daughter H1323 of Jerusalem, H3389 saying, Is this H2088 the city H5892 that men call H559 The perfection H3632 of beauty, H3308 The joy H4885 of the whole H3605 earth?
