1 Chronicles 17:1-9

1And it came to pass, when DavidH1732 dweltH3427 in his houseH1004, that DavidH1732 saidH559 to NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, Lo, I dwellH3427 in a houseH1004 of cedar, but the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah dwelleth under curtainsH3407.

2And NathanH5416 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, Do all that is in thy heartH3824; for GodH430 is with thee.

3And it came to pass the same nightH3915, that the wordH1697 of GodH430 came to NathanH5416, sayingH559,

4Go and tell DavidH1732 my servantH5650, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, Thou shalt not buildH1129 me a houseH1004 to dwellH3427 in:

5for I have not dweltH3427 in a houseH1004 since the dayH3117 that I broughtH5927 up IsraelH3478, unto this dayH3117, but have goneH5927 from tentH168 to tentH168, and from oneH2088 tabernacleH4908 to another.

6In all places wherein I have walkedH1980 with all IsraelH3478, spake I a wordH1697 with any of the judgesH8199 of IsraelH3478, whom I commandedH6680 to be shepherdH7462 of my peopleH5971, sayingH559, WhyH4100 have ye not builtH1129 me a houseH1004 of cedar?

7NowH6258 thereforeH6258 thusH3541 shalt thou sayH559 unto my servantH5650 DavidH1732, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, I tookH3947 thee from the sheepcote, from following the sheepH6629, that thou shouldest beH1961 princeH5057 over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478:

8and I have beenH1961 with thee whithersoever thou hast goneH1980, and have cutH3772 off all thine enemiesH341 from before thee; and I will makeH6213 thee a nameH8034, like unto the nameH8034 of the greatH1419 ones that are in the earthH776.

9And I will appointH7760 a placeH4725 for my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and will plantH5193 them, that they may dwellH7931 in their own placeH4725, and be moved no more; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the firstH7223,
