2 Samuel 7:10-17 New English Translation (NET)

10. I will establish a place for my people Israel and settle them there; they will live there and not be disturbed any more. Violent men will not oppress them again, as they did in the beginning

11. and during the time when I appointed judges to lead my people Israel. Instead, I will give you relief from all your enemies. The Lord declares to you that he himself will build a dynastic house for you.

12. When the time comes for you to die, I will raise up your descendant, one of your own sons, to succeed you, and I will establish his kingdom.

13. He will build a house for my name, and I will make his dynasty permanent.

14. I will become his father and he will become my son. When he sins, I will correct him with the rod of men and with wounds inflicted by human beings.

15. But my loyal love will not be removed from him as I removed it from Saul, whom I removed from before you.

16. Your house and your kingdom will stand before me permanently; your dynasty will be permanent.’”

17. Nathan told David all these words that were revealed to him.
