³⁴ And I have covered over this city, To save it, for Mine own sake, And for the sake of David My servant.'

⁶ and I have added to thy days fifteen years, and out of the hand of the king of Asshur I deliver thee and this city, and have covered over this city for Mine own sake, and for the sake of David My servant.'

⁵ As birds flying, so doth Jehovah of Hosts Cover over Jerusalem, covering and delivering, Passing over, and causing to escape.'

¹² `Only, in thy days I do it not, for the sake of David thy father; out of the hand of thy son I rend it;

¹³ only all the kingdom I do not rend away; one tribe I give to thy son, for the sake of David My servant, and for the sake of Jerusalem, that I have chosen.'

⁶ and out of the hand of the king of Asshur I deliver thee and this city, and have covered over this city.

⁴ but for David's sake hath Jehovah his God given to him a lamp in Jerusalem, to raise up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem,

¹⁴ which is an earnest of our inheritance, to the redemption of the acquired possession, to the praise of His glory.

⁶ to the praise of the glory of His grace, in which He did make us accepted in the beloved,

²² Therefore, say to the house of Israel, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Not for your sake am I working, O house of Israel, But -- for My holy name, That ye have polluted among nations whither ye have gone in.

²⁶ Also the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, I reject, Against taking from his seed rulers For the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, For I turn back `to' their captivity, and have pitied them.'

²¹ Also My covenant is broken with David My servant, So that he hath not a son reigning on his throne, And with the Levites the priests, My ministers.

⁵ Lo, days are coming -- an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have raised to David a righteous shoot, And a king hath reigned and acted wisely, And done judgment and righteousness in the earth.

⁶ In his days is Judah saved, and Israel dwelleth confidently, And this his name that Jehovah proclaimeth him, `Our Righteousness.'

¹¹ For My sake, for Mine own sake, I do `it', For how is it polluted? And Mine honour to another I give not.

⁹ For My name's sake I defer Mine anger, And My praise I restrain for thee, So as not to cut thee off.

²⁵ I -- I `am' He who is blotting out Thy transgressions for Mine own sake, And thy sins I do not remember.

⁷ To the increase of the princely power, And of peace, there is no end, On the throne of David, and on his kingdom, To establish it, and to support it, In judgment and in righteousness, Henceforth, even unto the age, The zeal of Jehovah of Hosts doth this.

⁵ God `is' in her midst -- she is not moved, God doth help her at the turn of the morn!

⁶ Troubled have been nations, Moved have been kingdoms, He hath given forth with His voice, earth melteth.

²⁷ If not -- the anger of an enemy I fear, Lest their adversaries know -- Lest they say, Our hand is high, And Jehovah hath not wrought all this.

² Beautiful `for' elevation, A joy of all the land, `is' Mount Zion, The sides of the north, the city of a great king.

³ God in her high places is known for a tower.

⁴ For, lo, the kings met, they passed by together,

⁵ They have seen -- so they have marvelled, They have been troubled, they were hastened away.

⁶ Trembling hath seized them there, Pain, as of a travailing woman.

⁷ By an east wind Thou shiverest ships of Tarshish.

⁸ As we have heard, so we have seen, In the city of Jehovah of hosts, In the city of our God, God doth establish her -- to the age. Selah.
