1 Chronicles 17:9-14

9I will make a place for my people Israel and plant them there. They will live in their own place and not be troubled anymore. The wicked will no longer frighten them as they used to do

10ever since I appointed judges to rule my people Israel. I will crush all your enemies. I even tell you that I, the Lord, will build a house for you.

11“ ‘When the time comes for you to go and be with your ancestors, I will send one of your descendants. He will be one of your sons. I will establish his kingdom.

12He will build a house for me, and I will establish his throne forever.

13I will be his Father, and he will be my Son. And I will never stop showing him my love as I did to your predecessor.

14I will place him in my royal house forever, and his throne will be established forever.’ ”
