2 Samuel 7:14 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

2 Samuel 7:14

12 ^a“When your days are fulfilled and you ^brest with your fathers, ^cI will set up your seed after you, who will come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom.

13 ^aHe shall build a house for My name, and I will ^bestablish the throne of his kingdom forever.

14 ^aI will be his Father, and he shall be ^bMy son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the¹ blows of the sons of men.

15 But My mercy shall not depart from him, ^aas I took it from Saul, whom I removed from before you.

16 And ^ayour house and your kingdom shall be established forever before¹ you. Your throne shall be established forever.” ’ ”

17 According to all these words and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.

David’s Thanksgiving to God

18 Then King David went in and sat before the Lord; and he said: ^a“Who am I, O Lord God? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?

19 And yet this was a small thing in Your sight, O Lord God; and You have also spoken of Your servant’s house for a great while to come. ^aIs this the manner of man, O Lord God?
