But for David and for his descendants and for his house and for his throne there shall be peace from the LORD forevermore.” 34Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up and struck him down and put him to death. And he was buried in his own house in the wilderness. Read this passage at the publisher: Read in NIV · Read in ESV
