1 Chronicles 22:5-9
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.
