David’s Rule as King
24 “‘“My servant King David will be there for them, and one shepherd will be appointed for them.

They will live in that land, along with their children and grandchildren, forever. David my servant will be their everlasting leader. 26 I’ll make a secure covenant[a] with them, one that will last forever. I will establish them, make them increase in population,[b] and will place my sanctuary in their midst forever. 27 I will pitch my tent among them and will be their God. They will be my people, 28 and the nations will learn that I, the Lord, am the sanctifier of Israel when I place my sanctuary in their midst forever.”’”
