2 Samuel 7:14 in Context — 2 Samuel 7

12 Quand tes jours seront accomplis et que tu seras couché avec tes pères, j’élèverai ta postérité après toi, celui qui sera sorti de tes entrailles, et j’affermirai son règne.

13 Ce sera lui qui bâtira une maison à mon nom, et j’affermirai pour toujours le trône de son royaume.

14 Je serai pour lui un père, et il sera pour moi un fils. S’il fait le mal, je le châtierai avec la verge des hommes et avec les coups des enfants des hommes;

15 mais ma grâce ne se retirera point de lui, comme je l’ai retirée de Saül, que j’ai rejeté devant toi.

16 Ta maison et ton règne seront pour toujours assurés, ton trône sera pour toujours affermi.
