17:12 He will build me a house, and I will make his dynasty permanent. 1 17:13 I will become his father and he will become my son. I will never withhold my loyal love from him, as I withheld it from the one who ruled before you. 2
1 tnHeb “and I will establish his throne permanently.”
2 snThe one who ruled before you is a reference to Saul, from whom the kingdom was taken and given to David.
