2 Samuel 7:2-7
2that the kingH4428 saidH559 unto NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, SeeH7200 now, I dwellH3427 in a houseH1004 of cedarH730, but the arkH727 of GodH430 dwelleth within curtainsH3407.
3And NathanH5416 saidH559 to the kingH4428, Go, do all that is in thy heartH3824; for Jehovah is with thee.
4And it came to pass the same nightH3915, that the wordH1697 of Jehovah came unto NathanH5416, sayingH559,
5Go and tell my servantH5650 DavidH1732, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, Shalt thou buildH1129 me a houseH1004 for me to dwellH3427 in?
6for I have not dweltH3427 in a houseH1004 since the dayH3117 that I broughtH5927 up the children of IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, even to this dayH3117, but have walkedH1980 in a tentH168 and in a tabernacleH4908.
7In all places wherein I have walkedH1980 with all the children of IsraelH3478, spake I a wordH1697 with any of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, whom I commandedH6680 to be shepherdH7462 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, sayingH559, WhyH4100 have ye not builtH1129 me a houseH1004 of cedarH730?
