2he saidH559 toH413 NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, “HereH7200H4994 I amH595, livingH3427 in a houseH1004 of cedarH730, while the arkH727 of GodH430 remainsH3427 inH8432 a tentH3407.”
3And NathanH5416H413 repliedH559 to the kingH4428, “GoH1980 and doH6213 allH3605 thatH834 is in your heartH3824, forH3588 the LORDH3068 is with youH5973.”
4But thatH1931H1961 nightH3915 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 toH413 NathanH5416, sayingH559, 5“GoH1980 and tellH559 My servantH5650H413 DavidH1732 that this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559: Are you the oneH859 to buildH1129 for Me a houseH1004 to dwell inH3427? 6ForH3588 I have notH3808 dweltH3427 in a houseH1004 from the dayH3117 I broughtH5927 the Israelites upH1121H3478 out of EgyptH4714 untilH5704 thisH2088 dayH3117, but I haveH1961 moved aboutH1980 with a tentH168 as My dwellingH4908. 7In allH3605 My journeysH1980 with allH3605 the IsraelitesH1121H3478, have I ever askedH1696H1697H854 anyH259 of the leadersH76261 I appointedH6680 to shepherdH7462 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478H559, ‘WhyH4100 haven’tH3808 you builtH1129 Me a houseH1004 of cedarH730?’
