11 Quand tes jours seront accomplis et que tu iras auprès de tes pères, j’élèverai ta postérité après toi, l’un de tes fils, et j’affermirai son règne.

12 Ce sera lui qui me bâtira une maison, et j’affermirai pour toujours son trône.

13 Je serai pour lui un père, et il sera pour moi un fils; et je ne lui retirerai point ma grâce, comme je l’ai retirée à celui qui t’a précédé.
