12. I'll choose one of your sons to be king when you reach the end of your life and are buried in the tomb of your ancestors. I'll make him a strong ruler,
13. and no one will be able to take his kingdom away from him. He will be the one to build a temple for me.
14. I will be his father, and he will be my son.When he does wrong, I'll see that he is corrected, just as children are corrected by their parents.
15. But I will never put an end to my agreement with him, as I put an end to my agreement with Saul, who was king before you.
16. I will make sure that one of your descendants will always be king.
17. Nathan told David exactly what he had heard in the vision.
