2 Samuel 7:11-16
-
11 And as since the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel, and have caused thee to rest from all thine enemies. Also the LORD telleth thee that he will make thee an house.
-
12 And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
-
13 He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.
-
14 I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men:
-
15 But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.
-
16 And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever.
