1 Chronicles 17:7-14
7Now, therefore, this is what you shall say to My servant David: ‘This is what the Lord of armies says: “I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, to be leader over My people Israel. 8I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have eliminated all your enemies from you; and I will make for you a name like the name of the great ones who are on the earth. 9And I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them there, so that they may live in their own place and not tremble with anxiety again; and the 1wicked will not make them waste away anymore as they did previously, 10even from the day that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel. And I will subdue all your enemies.
Moreover, I tell you that the Lord will build a house for you. 11When your days are fulfilled that you must 2go to be with your fathers, then I will set up one of your 3descendants after you, who will be from your sons; and I will establish his kingdom. 12He shall build for Me a house, and I will establish his throne forever. 134I will be his father and he shall be My son; and I will not take My favor away from him, 5as I took it from him who was before you. 14But I will settle him in My house and in My kingdom forever, and his throne will be established forever.”’”
