2 Samuel 7:12-14 ▼

12 When your life is complete and you go to join your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring after you, who will come forth from your body, and I will fortify his kingdom.

13 He will build a Temple dedicated to my Name, and I will make the throne of his kingdom last forever.

14 I will be a father to him, and he will be to me a son who, when he commits iniquity, I will discipline with the rod wielded by armies and with wounds inflicted by human beings.
