International Standard Version I will be a father to him and he will be a son to me. I will never remove my gracious love from him as I did from the one who preceded you.
American Standard Version I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my lovingkindness away from him, as I took it from him that was before thee;
Young's Literal Translation I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son, and My kindness I turn not aside from him as I turned it aside from him who was before thee,
