2 Samuel 23:2-7
WEB · Bible Passage
Bible Text
[2] The Spirit of Yahweh spoke by me, His word was on my tongue. [3] The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: One who rules over men righteously, Who rules in the fear of God, [4] [He shall 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. [5] Most assuredly my house is not 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, Although he doesn't make it grow. [6] But the ungodly shall be all of them as thorns to be thrust away, Because they can't be taken with the hand [7] But the man who touches them Must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear: They shall be utterly burned with fire in [their] place
