2 Samuel 7:10 - Plain English Version

^10-11 For a long time I picked judges and other bosses for my people, the Israel mob. Other mobs kept on giving them trouble, and they fought with the Israel mob. But from now on, I will look after my mob here in this country. This country belongs to Israel now. They can sit down here and live quietly, and not be frightened any more. Those other mobs will leave them alone. Listen, I am telling you this, so you will know. I will make your family important. And I will keep on making your family important.
