## 2 Samuel 7:13-15 in Context (Verses 10–18 KJV)
 
 [10 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/10) Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime,
 
 [11 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/11) And as since the time that I commanded judges *to be* over my people Israel, and have caused thee to rest from all thine enemies. Also the LORD telleth thee that he will make thee an house.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/12) ¶ And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/13) He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/14) I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men:
 
 [15 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/15) But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took *it* from Saul, whom I put away before thee.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/16) And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/17) According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/2-samuel/7/18) ¶ Then went king David in, and sat before the LORD, and he said, Who *am* I, O Lord GOD? and what *is* my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
