he shall build a house to My name, and he shall be a son to Me, and I a Father to him; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.
And his leader shall be from him, and his ruler shall come forth from his midst. And I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach Me. For who is he who gives his heart in pledge to come near to Me, a statement of Jehovah?

And they said to him, Behold, you have become old, and your sons have not walked in your ways. Now appoint a king to us, to judge us, like all the nations.
