- "And unto his sonª will I giveª° oneª tribe,ª that¹ Davidª my servantª may have¹ a lightª alwayª¹ beforeª me in Jerusalem,ª the cityª which¹ I have chosenª° me to putª° my nameª there.¹" {1Kg 11:36} + "Nevertheless¹ for David's² sake¹¹ did the LORDª his Godª giveª° him a lampª in Jerusalem,ª to set upª°¹ his sonª afterª him, and to establishª°¹ Jerusalem:ª" {1Kg 15:4} + "Howbeit the LORDª wouldª° not¹ destroyª°¹ the houseª of David,ª because of¹ the covenantª that¹ he had madeª° with David,ª and as¹ he promisedª° to giveª° a lightª to him and to his sonsª for ever.ª¹" {2Ch 21:7} + "Forª mineª eyes²¹ have seenª° thyª salvation,ª ... A lightª toª lightenª the Gentiles,ª andª the gloryª of thyª peopleª Israel.ª" {Lke 2:30-32}
