2 Samuel 7:11-16 ▼

11 and as from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will cause you to rest from all your enemies. Moreover Yahweh tells you that Yahweh will make you a house.

12 When your days are fulfilled and you sleep with your fathers, I will set up your offspring after you, who will proceed out of your body, and I will establish his kingdom.

13 He will build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.

14 I will be his father, and he will be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the stripes of the children of men;

15 but my loving kindness will not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before you.

16 Your house and your kingdom will be made sure forever before you. Your throne will be established forever.”’”
