2 Samuel 23:4-6
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
4 is like the light of morning,
like the sun rising on a cloudless morning,
gleaming from the rain on the grassy land.”(A)
5 Is not my house like this with God?
For he has made with me an everlasting covenant,
ordered in all things and secure.
Will he not cause to prosper
all my help and my desire?(B)
6 But the godless[a] are all like thorns that are thrown away,
for they cannot be picked up with the hand;(C)
