14I will be his father, and he shall be my son: if he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men;
15but my lovingkindness shall not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before you.
16Your house and your kingdom shall be made sure for ever before you: your throne shall be established forever.
17According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak to David.
18Then David the king went in, and sat before Yahweh; and he said, Who am I, Lord Yahweh, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?
19This was yet a small thing in your eyes, Lord Yahweh; but you have spoken also of your servant`s house for a great while to come; and this [too] after the manner of men, Lord Yahweh!
20What can David say more to you? for you know your servant, Lord Yahweh.
