11
And when the time comes for you to go to your fathers, I will put in your place your seed after you, one of your sons, and I will make his kingdom strong.
12
He will be the builder of my house, and I will make the seat of his authority certain for ever.
13
I will be to him a father and he will be to me a son; and I will not take my mercy away from him as I took it from him who was before you;
14
But I will make his place in my house and in my kingdom certain for ever; and the seat of his authority will never be overturned.
15
So Nathan gave David an account of all these words and this vision.
