1 Chronicles 17:12 In-Context

10 That is what your enemies have done ever since I appointed leaders over my people Israel. But I will bring all of them under your control. " ' "I tell you that I will build a royal house for your family.
11 Some day your life will come to an end. You will join the members of your family who have already died. Then I will give you one of your own sons to become the next king after you. I will make his kingdom secure.
12 " ' "He is the one who will build me a house. I will set up his throne. It will last forever.
13 I will be his father. And he will be my son. I took my love away from the man who ruled before you. But I will never take my love away from your son.
14 I will place him over my house and my kingdom forever. His throne will last forever." ' "
