¹⁰ ·when I chose [beginning when I appointed] judges for my people Israel. I will ·defeat [subdue] all your enemies.

“‘I tell you that the Lord will ·make your descendants kings of Israel after [^Lbuild a house for] you. ¹¹ When ·you die [your days are over/^Tfulfilled] and join your ·ancestors [fathers], I will ·make [^Lraise up] one of your descendants—one of your sons [^CSolomon]—the new king, and I will ·set up [establish; secure] his kingdom. ¹² He will build a house [^Cthe Temple] for me, and I will ·let his kingdom rule always [establish/secure his throne forever]. ¹³ I will be his father, and he will be my son [2 Sam. 7:14; Ps. 2:7]. I took away my ·love [steadfast love; lovingkindness] from Saul, who ruled before you, but I will never ·stop loving your son [take it away from him]. ¹⁴ I will ·put him in charge of [confirm him in] my house and kingdom forever. His ·family [^Lthrone] will ·rule [be established/secure] forever.’”
