TSK · 2 Samuel 7:16

The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs; the nations will obey him.

He gives his king magnificent victories; he is faithful to his chosen ruler, to David and to his descendants forever!”

But the LORD was unwilling to destroy Judah. He preserved Judah for the sake of his servant David to whom he had promised a perpetual dynasty.

I will become his father and he will become my son. I will never withhold my loyal love from him, as I withheld it from the one who ruled before you.

He does not take his eyes off the righteous; but with kings on the throne he seats the righteous and exalts them forever.

People will fear you as long as the sun and moon remain in the sky, for generation after generation.

His dynasty will last forever. His throne will endure before me, like the sun,

His dominion will be vast and he will bring immeasurable prosperity. He will rule on David’s throne and over David’s kingdom, establishing it and strengthening it by promoting justice and fairness, from this time forward and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of Heaven’s Armies will accomplish this.

They will live in the land I gave to my servant Jacob, in which your fathers lived; they will live in it– they and their children and their grandchildren forever. David my servant will be prince over them forever.

To him was given ruling authority, honor, and sovereignty. All peoples, nations, and language groups were serving him. His authority is eternal and will not pass away. His kingdom will not be destroyed.

He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father David.

but of the Son he says,“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, and a righteous scepter is the scepter of your kingdom.
