12. When your time comes and you rest with your fathers, I will raise up after you your descendant, who will come from 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 a father to him, and he will be a son to Me. When he does wrong, I will discipline him with a human rod and with blows from others.
15. But My faithful love will never leave him as I removed it from Saul; I removed him from your way.
16. Your house and kingdom will endure before Me forever, and your throne will be established forever.’ ”
17. Nathan spoke all these words and this entire vision to David.
