And thine houseª and thy kingdomª shall be establishedª° forª¹ ever²¹ before² thee: thy throneª shall be¹ establishedª° for² ever.ª¹" {2Sm 7:12-16} + "And the LORDª hath performedª°¹ his wordª that¹ he spake,ª° and I am risen upª° in the room¹ of Davidª my father,ª and sitª° on¹ the throneª of Israel,ª as¹ the LORDª promised,ª° and have builtª° an houseª for the nameª of the LORDª Godª of Israel.ª" {1Kg 8:20} + "And it shall come to pass,¹ when¹ thy daysª be expiredª° that thou must go²°¹ [to be] with¹ thy fathers,ª that I will raise upª°¹ thy seedª afterª thee, which¹ shall be¹ of thy sons;ª¹ and I will establishª°¹ his kingdom.ª" {1Ch 17:11} + "But I will settleª° him in mine houseª and in my kingdomª for ever:ª¹ and his throneª shall be¹ establishedª° for² evermore.ª¹" {1Ch 17:14} + "Howbeit the LORDª Godª of Israelª choseª° me before all¹¹ the houseª of my fatherª to be¹ kingª over¹ Israelª for ever:ª for¹ he hath chosenª° Judahª [to be] the ruler;ª and of the houseª of Judah,ª the houseª of my father;ª and among the sonsª of my fatherª he likedª° me to make [me] kingª° over¹ all¹ Israel:ª ... And of all¹¹ my sons,ª (for¹ the LORDª hath givenª° me manyª sons,)ª he hath chosenª° Solomonª my sonª to sitª° upon¹ the throneª of the kingdomª of the LORDª over¹ Israel.ª" {1Ch 28:4-5} + "Then¹ thou spakestª° in visionª to thy holy one,ª and saidst,ª° I have laidª° helpª upon¹ [one that is] mighty;ª I have exaltedª° [one] chosen²°¹ out of the people.ª¹ ...
