2 Samuel 23:5-7

New Revised Standard NRS

5 Is not my house like this with God? For he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things and secure. Will he not cause to prosper all my help and my desire?

6 But the godless are all like thorns that are thrown away; for they cannot be picked up with the hand;

7 to touch them one uses an iron bar or the shaft of a spear. And they are entirely consumed in fire on the spot.

New International Version NIV

5 “If my house were not right with God, surely he would not have made with me an everlasting covenant, arranged and secured in every part; surely he would not bring to fruition my salvation and grant me my every desire.

6 But evil men are all to be cast aside like thorns, which are not gathered with the hand.

7 Whoever touches thorns uses a tool of iron or the shaft of a spear; they are burned up where they lie.”
