Howbeit Jehovah would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children alway.

But it was not the Lord's purpose to send destruction on the family of David, because of the agreement he had made with David, when he said he would give to him and to his sons a light for ever.

Αλλ' ο Κυριος δεν ηθελησε να εξολοθρευση τον οικον του Δαβιδ, δια την διαθηκην την οποιαν εκαμε προς τον Δαβιδ, και διοτι ειπε να δωση λυχνον εις αυτον και εις τους υιους αυτου παντοτε.

Howbeit the Lord would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a light to him and to his sons for ever.
