17:1

The Covenant of the Terrestrial Dwelling

And it came to pass, as Dawid sat in his house, that Dawid said to Natan the prophet, "Behold, I dwell in a house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 remains under curtains."
17:2
Then Natan said unto Dawid, "Do all that is in your heart; for Alahiym is with you."
17:3

The Celestial Correction

And it came to pass the same night, that the word of Alahiym came to Natan, saying,
17:4
"Go and tell Dawid My servant, 'Thus says 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄: You shall not build Me a house to dwell in.
17:5
For I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Yashar'al unto this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from one tabernacle to another.
17:6
Wherever I have walked with all Yashar'al, did I speak a word to any of the judges of Yashar'al, whom I commanded to shepherd My people, saying, Why have you not built Me a house of cedars?'
17:7

The Covenant of the Genetic Frequency

Now therefore, thus shall you say to My servant Dawid, 'Thus says 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 Tzabaoth: I took you from the sheepfold, from following the sheep, to be ruler over My people Yashar'al.
17:8
And I have been with you wherever you have walked, and have cut off all your enemies from before you, and have made you a name like the name of the great men who are in the earth.
17:9
Also I will ordain a place for My people Yashar'al, and will plant them in the terrestrial matrix, and they shall dwell in their place, and shall be moved no more; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the beginning,
17:10
And since the time that I commanded judges to be over My people Yashar'al. Moreover I will subdue all your enemies. Furthermore I tell you that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 will build you a dynastic house.
17:11
And it shall come to pass, when your days are expired that you must go to be with your fathers, that I will raise up your genetic seed after you, who shall be of your sons; and I will establish his kingdom.
17:12
He shall build Me a house, and I will establish his throne forever.
17:13
I will be his Father, and he shall be My son: and I will not take My mercy away from him, as I took it from him who was before you.
17:14
But I will settle him in My house and in My kingdom forever: and his throne shall be established forevermore.'
17:15

The Word Delivered

According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Natan speak unto Dawid.
17:16

The Prayer of Dawid

And Dawid the king came and sat before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and said, "Who am I, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 Alahiym, and what is my house, that You have brought me to this frequency?
17:17
And yet this was a small thing in Your eyes, O Alahiym; for You have also spoken of Your servant's house for a great while to come, and have regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 Alahiym.
17:18
What more can Dawid speak to You for the honor of Your servant? For You know Your servant.
17:19
O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, for Your servant's sake, and according to Your own heart, have You done all this greatness, in making known all these celestial decrees.
17:20
O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, there is none like You, neither is there any Alahiym besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
17:21

The Purified Nation

And what one nation in the earth is like Your people Yashar'al, whom Alahiym went to redeem to be His own people, to make You a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving out nations from before Your people, whom You redeemed out of Mitzrayim?
17:22
For Your people Yashar'al You did make Your own people forever; and You, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, became their Alahiym.
17:23

The Confirmation of the Decree

Therefore now, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, let the word that You have spoken concerning Your servant and concerning his house be established forever, and do as You have said.
17:24
Let it even be established, that Your Name may be magnified forever, saying, '𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 Tzabaoth is the Alahiym of Yashar'al, even an Alahiym to Yashar'al: and let the house of Dawid Your servant be established before You.'
17:25
For You, O my Alahiym, have revealed to Your servant that You will build him a dynastic house: therefore Your servant has found it in his heart to pray before You.
17:26
And now, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, You are Alahiym, and have promised this goodness to Your servant:
17:27
Now therefore let it please You to bless the house of Your servant, that it may be before You forever: for You bless, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and it shall be blessed forever."
