12. Your son will build a house for me. I will make your son’s family rule forever.
13. I will be his father, and he will be my son. Saul was the king before you, and I took away my support from Saul. But I will never stop loving your son.
14. I will put him in charge of my house and kingdom forever. His rule will continue forever!’”
15. Nathan told David about the vision and everything God had said.
16. Then King David went to the Holy Tent and sat before the Lord. David said, “Lord God, you have done so much for me and my family. And I don’t understand why.
17. Besides all these things, God, you let me know what will happen to my family in the future. Lord God, you have treated me like a very important man.
