The Key Word — יִבְנֶה־, yiv.neh-generated
The verb בָּנָה (banah) means 'to build' and indicates the act of constructing something substantial, like a house or a temple. In this verse, it signifies the future action of the king, which is not just physical construction but also the establishment of a spiritual legacy.
The imperfect tense indicates that this action is yet to occur, implying a future fulfillment of God's promise. This verb is pivotal as it connects the physical act of building with the spiritual significance of God's presence among His people.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The translations generally agree on the meaning of the verse.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb יִבְנֶה (yivneh) governs the main clause, indicating the future action of building. The structure includes a prepositional phrase detailing the purpose of the building, followed by the establishment of the throne, which is the second main action in the promise.
The overall sentence structure emphasizes the sequential actions: first the building of the house, then the establishment of the throne, highlighting the connection between these two significant events in God's covenant.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, the Hebrew verb יִבְנֶה is translated as οἰκοδομήσει (oikodomēsei), which carries the same meaning of building but may also imply a more permanent establishment. This choice reflects the translators' understanding of the significance of the temple's construction.
The word for 'throne' in the Septuagint is θρόνον (thronon), maintaining the connotation of authority and power, similar to the Hebrew term.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated

Matthew Poole1624–1679Matthew Poole's Commentary on the Holy BibleHe shall build an house: this is meant literally and immediately of Solomon, who alone did build the material house or temple; but mystically and ultimately of Christ, who is the builder of God’ s spiritual house or temple, ,6 . For my name, i. e. for my service, and worship, and glory. I will stablish the throne of his kingdom: this is not meant of Solomon, for his kingdom was not for ever. And though the phrase for ever is sometimes used of the time of a man’ s life, yet it cannot be so understood here, because the mercy here promised to David’ s son is of another nature, and of far longer continuance, than that which was given to Saul, , who yet enjoyed the kingdom as long as he lived.…

The Masoretic Text and the Septuagint largely agree on the wording of this verse, with 8 out of 10 words matched. The differences lie mainly in the word order and specific articles used in the Greek translation.

Till their sojourn in Egypt the Hebrews dwelt in tents. They then for the first time inhabited cities (Gen. 47:3; Ex. 12:7; Heb. 11:9). From the earliest times the Assyrians and the Canaanites were builders of cities. The Hebrews after the Conquest took possession of the captured cities, and seem to have followed the methods of building that had been pursued by the Canaanites. Reference is made to the stone (1 Kings 7:9; Isa. 9:10) and marble (1 Chr. 29:2) used in building, and to the internal wood-work of the houses (
The houses of the rural poor in Egypt, as well as in most parts of Syria, Arabia and Persia, are generally mere huts of mud or sunburnt bricks. In some parts of Palestine and Arabia stone is used, and in certain districts caves in the rocks are used as dwellings. (Amos 5:11) The houses are usually of one story only, viz., the ground floor, and often contain only one apartment. Sometimes a small court for the cattle is attached; and in some cases the cattle are housed in the same building, or the live in a raised platform, and, the cattle round them on the ground. (1 Samuel 28:24) The windows are small apertures high up in the walls, sometimes grated with wood. The roofs are commonly but not always flat, and are usually formed of plaster of mud and straw laid upon boughs or…
Is often put for dwelling, residence; and hence the temple, and even the tabernacle, are called the house of God.
The universal mode of building houses in the East, is in the form of a hollow square, with an open court or yard in the center; which is thus entirely shut in by the walls of the house around it. Into this court all the windows open, there being usually no windows towards the street. Some houses of large size require several courts, and these usually communicate with each other. These courts are commonly paved; and in many large houses parts of them are planted with shrubs and trees, Ps 84:3 128:3; they have also, when possible, a fountain in them, often with a jet d’ eau, 2Sa 17:18. It is customary in many houses to extend an awning over the whole court in hot…
שֵׁם (shem) means 'name' and encompasses various meanings such as reputation, fame, and glory. It can refer to the designation of God and is often associated with memorials or monuments.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
