1 Chronicles 17:11-16

11When your days are over and you go to be with your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, one of your own sons, and I will establish his kingdom.

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

13I will be his father, and he will be my son. I will never take my love away from him, as I took it away from your predecessor.

14I will set him over my house and my kingdom forever; his throne will be established forever.’ ”
