12He shall build me a house, and I will establish his throne forever.
13I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my lovingkindness away from him, as I took it from him that was before you;
14but I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom forever; and his throne shall be established forever.
15According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak to David.
16Then David the king went in, and sat before Yahweh; and he said, Who am I, Yahweh God, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?
17This was a small thing in your eyes, God; but you have spoken of your servant`s house for a great while to come, and have regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, Yahweh God.
18What can David [say] yet more to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? for you know your servant.
