2 Samuel 7:12-16

12 "1When your days are complete and you 2lie down with your fathers, 3I will raise up your descendant after you, who will come forth from you, and I will establish his kingdom.
13 "4He shall build a house for My name, and 5I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever *.
14 "6I will be a father to him and he will be a son to Me; 7when he commits iniquity, I will correct him with the rod of men and the strokes of the sons of men,
15 but My lovingkindness shall not depart from him, 8as I took it away from Saul, whom I removed from before you.
16 "9Your house and your kingdom shall endure before Me forever *; your throne shall be established forever *.""'
