and I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance: – as He said to him, "And 1 have cut off all thine enemies from before thee; and I will make thee a great name like unto the name of the great ones that are in the earth" (2 Sam. 7:9); and it says (ibid. 8:14), "And all the Edomites became servants to David"; and it says (ibid. 8:6), "And the Syrians became servants to David"; and it says (1 Chron. 19:17), "and the fame of David went out into all the lands, and the Lord brought the fear of him upon all the nations." And this is what he means when he says, I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance."
