A. (11) Also the LORD telleth thee that he will make thee an house.

B.( 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,

C. and I will establish his kingdom.

D.(13) He shall build an house for my name,

C.’ and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

B’.(14a) 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). But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.

A’. (16)  And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever.
