2 Samuel 7:12-15 Common English Bible (CEB)

12. When the time comes for you to die and you lie down with your ancestors, I will raise up your descendant—one of your very own children—to succeed you, and I will establish his kingdom.

13. He will build a temple for my name, and I will establish his royal throne forever.

14. I will be a father to him, and he will be a son to me. Whenever he does wrong, I will discipline him with a human rod, with blows from human beings.

15. But I will never take my faithful love away from him like I took it away from Saul, whom I set aside in favor of you.
