Now these are the last words of David. . .The spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and His word was upon my tongue. The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: ‘Ruler over men shall be the righteous, even he that ruleth in the fear of God, And as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; when through clear shining after rain, the tender grass springeth out of the earth.’ For is not my house established with God? for an everlasting covenant He hath made with me, ordered in all things, and sure; for all my salvation, and all my desire, will he not make it to grow? 2 Samuel 23:1-5 ~ Praying for the Peace of Jerusalem
