2 Chronicles 6:42 (King James Version)
O LORD God, turn not away the face of thine anointed: remember the mercies of David thy servant.

turn not: That is, "reject not thine anointed;" or, "repulse him not," agreeably to the interpretation of this phrase in the Syriac and Arabic versions.
See: 1 Kings 2:16
thine anointed: 1 Kings 1:34 ; Psalms 2:2 ; Isaiah 61:1
remember: Psalms 132:1 ; Isaiah 55:3 ; Acts 13:34
the mercies: Or, as Dr. Geddes renders, "the pious deeds of thy servant David; " The Syriac has, "the good actions of thy servant."
