New Living Translation
1 Kings 8:17-19
17Then Solomon said, “My father, David, wanted to build this Temple to honor the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
18But the Lord told him, ‘You wanted to build the Temple to honor my name. Your intention is good,
19but you are not the one to do it. One of your own sons will build the Temple to honor me.’
