1 Kings 8:16-19

16Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house in, that my name might be there; but I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

17And it was in the heart of David my father to build a house unto the name of Jehovah the 1God of Israel.

18But Jehovah said to David my father, Whereas it was in thy heart to build a house unto my name, thou didst well that it was in thy heart;

19nevertheless thou shalt not build the house; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house unto my name.
