2 Samuel 7:21Catholic Public Domain VersionBecause of your word, and according to your own heart, you have done all these great deeds, so that you would make it known to your servant. See the chapter |
For it is not because of your justices or the uprightness of your heart that you will enter, so that you may possess their lands. Instead, it is because they have acted wickedly that they are destroyed upon your arrival, and so that the Lord may accomplish his word, which he promised under oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
