Howbeit Jehovah, the God of Israel, chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he hath chosen Judah to be prince; and in the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel;
But þe Lord God of Israel chees me of al þe hows of my fadir, þat Y schulde be kyng on Israel with outen ende; for of Juda he chees princes, soþeli of þe hows of Juda he chees þe hows of my fadir, and of þe sones of my fadir it pleside hym to chese me kyng on al Israel.
