"ThereI will cause the hornof Davidto springforth;I have prepareda lampfor Mine anointed.
But to his sonI will giveonetribe,that My servantDavidmay havea lampalwaysbeforeMe in Jerusalem,the citywhereI have chosenfor Myself to putMy name.
But for David'ssakethe LORDhis Godgavehim a lampin Jerusalem,to raiseup his sonafterhim and to establishJerusalem;
However, the LORDwas not willingto destroyJudah,for the sakeof DavidHis servant,sinceHe had promisedhim to givea lampto him through his sonsalways.
Yet the LORDwas not willingto destroythe houseof Davidbecauseof the covenantwhichHe had madewith David,and sinceHe had promisedto givea lampto him and his sonsforever.
And He has liftedup a hornfor His people,Praisefor allHis godlyones;[Even] for the sonsof Israel,a peoplenearto Him. Praisethe LORD!
"I shall also sethis handon the seaAnd his righthandon the rivers.
But You have exaltedmy hornlike [that of] the wildox;I have been anointedwith freshoil.
"On that dayI will make a hornsproutfor the houseof Israel,and I will openyour mouthin their midst.Then they will knowthat I am the LORD."
And has raisedup a hornof salvationfor us In the houseof DavidHis servant--
"Those who contendwith the LORDwill be shattered;Againstthem He will thunderin the heavens,The LORDwill judgethe endsof the earth;And He will givestrengthto His king,And will exaltthe hornof His anointed."
