12 And when your days are fulfilled and you shall sleep with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come out of your loins, and I will establish his kingdom. 13 He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever. 14 I will be like a father to him and he shall be like a son to me. If he commit folly, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the stripes of the children of men; 15 But my mercy I will not take from him, as I took it from Saul who was king before you, and whom I put away from before me. 16 And your house and your kingdom shall be established for ever before me; your throne shall be established for ever. 2 Samuel 7:12-16, Lamsa Bible.
