 8And now, thus shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: I took thee from the pasture-grounds, from following the sheep, to be prince over my people, over Israel;
 9and I have been with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies from before thee, and have made thee a great name, like unto the name of the great men that are on the earth.

• Through his sufferings David could prepare the "rest that remaineth for the people of God," but he could not bring in that rest as long as the kingdom still bore the impress of the warrior character of its leader.
