2 Samuel 7:16 in Context — 2 Samuel 7

14 Yo le seré á él padre, y él me será á mí hijo. Y si él hiciere mal, yo le castigaré con vara de hombres, y con azotes de hijos de hombres;

15 Empero mi misericordia no se apartará de él, como la aparté de Saúl, al cual quité de delante de ti.

16 Y será afirmada tu casa y tu reino para siempre delante de tu rostro; y tu trono será estable eternalmente.

17 Conforme á todas estas palabras, y conforme á toda esta visión, así habló Nathán á David.

18 Y entró el rey David, y púsose delante de Jehová, y dijo: Señor Jehová, ¿quién soy yo, y qué es mi casa, para que tú me traigas hasta aquí?
