7:9 I
was with you
wherever you
went, and I
defeated all your
enemies before you. Now I will
make you as
famous as the
great men of the
earth.
10 I will
establish a
place for my
people Israel and
settle them there; they will
live there and
not be
disturbed anymore.
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.’”
