9. “And I shall prepare a place for My people Yisra’ĕl and plant them, and they shall dwell in a place of their own and move no more, nor shall the sons of wickedness oppress them any more, as at the first,

10. since the time that I commanded rulers to be over My people Yisra’ĕl, and I have humbled all your enemies. And I declared to you that יהוה does build you a house.

11. “And it shall be, when your days are filled to go to be with your fathers, that I shall raise up your seed after you, who is of your sons. And I shall establish his reign.

12. “He does build Me a house, and I shall establish his throne forever.

13. “I am to be his Father, and he is to be My son. And My kindness I do not turn away from him, as I took it from him who was before you.

14. “And I shall establish him in My house and in My reign forever, and let his throne be established forever.” ’ ”

15. According to all these words and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak to Dawiḏ.
