1 Chronicles 22:5-13

5David said, “My son 1Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house that is to be built for the Lord shall be exceedingly magnificent, famous, and glorious throughout the lands. Therefore I now will make preparations for it.” So David made ample preparations before his death.

6Then 2he called for his son Solomon, and commanded him to build a house for the Lord God of Israel. 7David said to Solomon, “3My son, 4I had intended to build a house for the name of the Lord my God. 8But the word of the Lord came to me, saying, ‘5You have shed much blood and have 6waged great wars; you shall not build a house to My name, because you have shed so much blood on the earth before Me. 9Behold, a son will be born to you, who shall be a man of rest, and 7I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for 8his name will be 9Solomon, and I will give peace and quiet to Israel in his days. 1010He shall build a house for My name, and he shall be My son and I will be his Father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’ 11Now, my son, 11the Lord be with you that you may be successful, and build the house of the Lord your God just as He has spoken concerning you. 1212Only the Lord give you discretion and understanding, and put you in charge of Israel, so that you may 13keep the Law of the Lord your God. 1314Then you will prosper, if you are careful to 15follow the statutes and the ordinances which the Lord commanded Moses concerning Israel. 16Be strong and courageous, do not fear nor be dismayed.
