Nevertheless I will not takethe wholekingdomout of his hand,but I will makehim rulerallthe daysof his life,for the sakeof My servantDavidwhomI chose,whoobservedMy commandmentsand My statutes;
For I will defendthiscityto saveit for My own sakeand for My servantDavid'ssake.'"
However, the LORDwas not willingto destroyJudah,for the sakeof DavidHis servant,sinceHe had promisedhim to givea lampto him through his sonsalways.
"O LORDGod,do not turnawaythe faceof Your anointed;remember[Your] lovingkindnessto Your servantDavid."
Who givessalvationto kings,Who rescuesDavidHis servantfrom the evilsword.

Beholdour shield,O God,And lookupon the faceof Your anointed.
Afterwardthe sonsof Israelwill returnand seekthe LORDtheir Godand Davidtheir king;and they will cometremblingto the LORDand to His goodnessin the lastdays.
