2 Samuel 7:7 in Context — 2 Samuel 7
5 Vai e dize a meu servo Davi: Assim disse o SENHOR: Tu me edificarás casa em que eu more?
6 Certamente não habitei em casas desde o dia que tirei aos filhos de Israel do Egito até hoje, mas sim que andei em tenda e em tabernáculo.
7 E em tudo quanto andei com todos os filhos de Israel, falei palavra em alguma das tribos de Israel, a quem tenha mandado que apascente meu povo de Israel, para dizer: Por que não me edificastes casa de cedros?
8 Agora, pois, dirás assim a meu servo Davi: Assim disse o SENHOR dos exércitos: Eu te tomei da malhada, de detrás das ovelhas, para que fosses príncipe sobre meu povo, sobre Israel;
9 E fui contigo em tudo quanto andaste, e diante de ti exterminei todos teus inimigos, e te fiz nome grande, como o nome dos grandes que são na terra.
