1 Chronicles 17:10-14 ▼

10 ever since the day I ordered judges to be over my people Israel. I will also subdue all your enemies. “ ‘Furthermore, I declare to you that the LORD himself will build a house for you.

11 When your time comes to be with your ancestors, I will raise up after you your descendant, who is one of your own sons, and I will establish his kingdom.

12 He is the one who will build a house for me, and I will establish his throne forever.

13 I will be his father, and he will be my son. I will not remove my faithful love from him as I removed it from the one who was before you.

14 I will appoint him over my house and my kingdom forever, and his throne will be established forever.’ ”
