# General Information:
|
|
|
|
Here "I" refers to God, who spoke through the words of his prophet.
|
|
|
|
# I will build again the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down ... its ruins again
|
|
|
|
This speaks of God's again choosing one of David's descendants to rule over his people as though he were setting up a tent again after it fell down. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# tabernacle
|
|
|
|
Here the word "tabernacle," a dwelling place, stands for David's family. The same word is used for the tent that Yahweh told Moses to construct. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
