1 Kings 8:18-20

18And the LordH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, WhereasH834H3282 it was in thine heartH3824 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 unto my nameH8034, thou didst wellH2895 that it was in thine heartH3824.

19NeverthelessH7535 thou shalt not buildH1129 the houseH1004; but thy sonH1121 that shall come forth outH3318 of thy loinsH2504, he shall buildH1129 the houseH1004 unto my nameH8034.

20And the LordH3068 hath performedH6965 his wordH1697 that he spakeH1696, and I am risen upH6965 in the room of DavidH1732 my fatherH1, and sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478, as the LordH3068 promisedH1696, and have builtH1129 an houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
