1 Chronicles 17:1-9

1And it came to pass as DavidH1732 dweltH3427 in his houseH1004, that DavidH1732 saidH559 to NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, Behold, I dwellH3427 in a houseH1004 of cedars, and the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah under curtainsH3407.

2And NathanH5416 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Do all that is in thy heartH3824; for 1GodH430 is with thee.

3And it came to pass that nightH3915 that the wordH1697 of 2GodH430 came to NathanH5416 sayingH559,

4Go and sayH559 to 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 to this dayH3117; but I have beenH1961 from tentH168 to tentH168, and from [oneH2088] tabernacleH4908 [to another].

6In all my goingH1980 about with all IsraelH3478, did I speakH1696 a wordH1697 to any of the judgesH8199 of IsraelH3478, whom I commandedH6680 to feedH7462 my peopleH5971, sayingH559, WhyH4100 buildH1129 ye me not a houseH1004 of cedars?

7And nowH6258, thusH3541 shalt thou sayH559 unto my servantH5650 DavidH1732, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: I tookH3947 thee from the pasture-grounds, from following the sheepH6629, to beH1961 princeH5057 over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478;

8and I have beenH1961 with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cutH3772 off all thine enemiesH341 from before thee, and have madeH6213 thee a nameH8034, like unto the nameH8034 of the greatH1419 men that are on the earthH776.

9And I will appointH7760 a placeH4725 for my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and will plantH5193 them, that they may dwellH7931 in a placeH4725 of their own, and be disturbed no more; neither shall the sonsH1121 of wickedness waste them any more, as formerly,
