2 Samuel 7:11-17
11 afrom the time that I appointed judges over my people Israel. And bI will give you rest from all your enemies. Moreover, the Lord declares to you that cthe Lord will make you a house. 12 dWhen your days are fulfilled and eyou lie down with your fathers, fI will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. 13 gHe shall build a house for my name, and hI will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. 14 iI will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son. When he commits iniquity, jI will discipline him with the rod of men, with the stripes of the sons of men, 15 kbut my steadfast love will not depart from him, las I took it from Saul, whom I put away from before you. 16 mAnd your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before me. ▼▼Septuagint; Hebrew you
oYour throne shall be established forever.’” 17In accordance with all these words, and in accordance with all this vision, Nathan spoke to David. Galatians 3:16
16Now pthe promises were made qto Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, r“And to your offspring,” who is Christ.Hebrews 6:12-15
12so that you may not be sluggish, but simitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.The Certainty of God’s Promise
13For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater by whom to swear, the swore by himself, 14saying, u“Surely I will bless you and multiply you.” 15And thus Abraham, ▼▼Greek he
whaving patiently waited, obtained the promise. Hebrews 10:36
36For xyou have need of endurance, so that ywhen you have done the will of God you may zreceive what is promised.
