2 Samuel 7:21New King James VersionFor Your word’s sake, and according to Your own heart, You have done all these great things, to make Your servant know them. See the chapter |
It is not because of your righteousness or the uprightness of your heart that you go in to possess their land, but because of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord your God drives them out from before you, and that He may fulfill the word which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
