1 Then Nathan the prophet arose in the days
of David.
2 The Lord
the Almighty, and he gave strength in his right hand, to take away the mighty
warrior, and to set up the horn of his nation.
3 And as
the fat taken away from the flesh, so was David chosen from among the
children of Israel.
4 He
played with lions as with lambs: and with bears he did in like manner as with
the lambs of the flock, in his youth.
5 Did not
he kill the giant, and take away reproach from his people?
6 In
lifting up his hand, with the stone in the sling he beat down the boasting of
Goliath:
7 For he
called upoI
8 So in ten
thousand did he glorify him, and praised him in the blessings of the Lord, in
offering to him a crown of glory:
9 For he
destroyed the enemies on every side, and extirpated the Philistines the
adversaries unto this day: he broke their horn for ever.
10 In all
his works he gave thanks to the holy one, and to the most High, with words of
glory.
11 With his
whole heart he praised the Lord, and loved God that made him: and he gave him
power against his enemies:
12 And he
set singers before the altar, and by their voices he made sweet melody.
13 And to
the festivals he added beauty, and set in order the solemn times even to the
end of his life, that they should praise the holy name of the Lord, and
magnify the holiness of God in the morning.
14 The Lord
took away his sine, and exalted his horn for ever: and he gave him a covenant
of the kingdom, and a throne of glory in Israel.
15 After
him arose up a wise son, and for his sake he cast down all the power of the
enemies.
16 Solomon
reigned in days of peace, and God brought all his enemies under him, that he
might build a house in his name, and prepare a sanctuary for ever: O how wise
wast thou in thy youth!
17 And thou
wast filled as a river with wisdom, and thy soul
covered the earth.
18 And thou
didst multiply riddles in parables: thy name went abroad to the islands far
off, and thou wast beloved in thy peace.
19 The
countries wondered at thee for thy canticles, and proverbs, and parables, and
interpretations,
20 And at
the name of the Lord God, whose surname is, God of Israel.
21 Thou
didst gather gold as copper, and didst multiply silver as lead,
22 And thou
didst bow thyself to women: and by thy body thou wast
brought under subjection.
23 Thou hast
stained thy glory, and defiled thy seed so as to bring wrath upon thy
children, and to have thy folly kindled,
24 That thou
shouldst make the kingdom to be divided, and out of
Ephraim a rebellious kingdom to rule.
25 But God
will not leave off his mercy, and he will not destroy, nor abolish his own
works, neither will he out up by the roots the offspring of his elect: and he
will not utterly take away the seed of him that loveth
the Lord.
26 Wherefore
he gave a remnant to Jacob, and to David of the same stock.
27 And
Solomon had an end with his fathers.
28 And he
left behind him of his seed, the folly of the nation,
29 Even Roboam that had little wisdom, who turned away the people
through his counsel:
30 And
Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who caused Israel to
sin, and shewed Ephraim the way of sin, and their
sins were multiplied exceedingly.
31 They
removed them far away from their land.
32 And they
sought out all iniquities, till vengeance came upon them, and put an end to
all their sine.
