1 Kings 8:16-19
16‘1SinceH4480 the dayH3117 that I broughtH3318 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 from EgyptH4714, I did not chooseH977 a cityH5892 out of allH3605 the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 in which to buildH1129 a houseH1004 that 2My nameH8034 might be thereH8033, but 3I choseH977 DavidH1732 to be overH5921 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.’
174Now it was 5in the heartH3824 of my fatherH1 DavidH1732 to buildH1129 a houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
18But the LordH3068 saidH559 to my fatherH1 DavidH1732, ‘BecauseH3282H834 it was 6in your heartH3824 to buildH1129 a houseH1004 for My nameH8034, you didH2895 wellH2895 that it was 7in your heartH3824.
198NeverthelessH7534 you shall not buildH1129 the houseH1004, but your sonH1121 who 9will be bornH3318H2504 to you, he will buildH1129 the houseH1004 for My nameH8034.’
