Chronicles I 17:12 In-Context

10 and from the days when I appointed judges over my people Israel. Also I have humbled all thine enemies, and I will increase thee, and the Lord will build thee a house.
11 And it shall come to pass when thy days shall be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
12 He shall build me a house, and I will set up his throne for ever.
13 I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son: and my mercy will I not withdraw from him, as I withdrew from them that were before thee.
14 And I will establish him in my house and in his kingdom for ever; and his throne shall be set up for ever.
