2 Samuel 7:8-17
8And nowH6258, thusH3541 shalt thou sayH559 unto my servantH5650 DavidH1732, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: I tookH3947 thee from the pasture-grounds, from following the sheepH6629, to beH1961 princeH5057 over my peopleH5971, over IsraelH3478;
9and I have beenH1961 with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cutH3772 off all thine enemiesH341 from before thee, and have madeH6213 thee a greatH1419 nameH8034, like unto the nameH8034 of the greatH1419 men that are on the earthH776.
10And I will appointH7760 a placeH4725 for my peopleH5971, for IsraelH3478, and will plantH5193 them, that they may dwellH7931 in a placeH4725 of their own, and be disturbed no more; neither shall the sonsH1121 of wickedness afflictH6031 them any more, as formerly,
11and since the time that I commandedH6680 judgesH8199 to be over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. And I have givenH5117 thee restH5117 from all thine enemiesH341; and Jehovah telleth thee that Jehovah will makeH6213 thee a houseH1004.
12When thy daysH3117 are fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathersH1, I will setH6965 up thy seedH2233 after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowelsH4578, and I will establishH6965 his kingdomH4467.
13It is he who shall buildH1129 a houseH1004 for my nameH8034, and I will establishH3559 the throneH3678 of his kingdomH4467 for everH5769.
14I will beH1961 his fatherH1, and he shall beH1961 my sonH1121. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rodH7626 of menH376 and with the stripes of the sonsH1121 of menH376;
15but my mercy shall not departH5493 awayH5493 from him, as I took it from SaulH7586, whom I put awayH5493 from before thee.
16And thy houseH1004 and thy kingdomH4467 shall beH1961 made firm for everH5769 before thee: thy throneH3678 shall beH1961 establishedH3559 for everH5769.
17According to all these wordsH1697, and according to all this visionH2384, soH3651 did NathanH5416 speakH1696 to DavidH1732.
