2 Samuel 23:5-7
New International Reader's Version
5 “Suppose my royal family was not right with God.
Then he would not have made a covenant with me that will last forever.
Every part of it was well prepared and made secure.
Then God would not have saved me completely
or given me everything I longed for.
6 But evil people are like thorns that are thrown away.
You can’t pick them up with your hands.
7 Even if you touch them,
you must use an iron tool or a spear.
Thorns are burned up right where they are.”
New International Reader's Version (NIRV)
