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.
He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

7:12 thy seed. As with many Old Testament prophecies, this remarkable “Davidic Covenant” has both a near and far application. Solomon was David’s “seed,” and he did “build an house for my name,” but the ultimate fulfillment is in the greater “Son of David,” the Lord Jesus Christ, who was “a son over His own house; whose house are we” (Hebrews 3:6).
