2 Samuel 7:1-6
11Now it came about, when the king lived in his house, and the Lord had given him rest on every side from all his enemies, 2that the king said to 2Nathan the prophet, “See now, I live in 3a house of cedar, but the ark of God 4remains within the tent.” 3Nathan said to the king, “5Go, do all that is in your mind, for the Lord is with you.”
4But in the same night, the word of the Lord came to Nathan, saying, 5“Go and say to My servant David, ‘This is what the Lord says: “6Should you build Me a house for My dwelling? 6For 7I have not dwelt in a house since the day I brought up the sons of Israel from Egypt, even to this day; rather, I have been moving about 8in a tent, that is, in a dwelling place.
