1 Chronicles 17:1-9
1Now it came to pass, as DavidH1732 satH3427 in his houseH1004, that DavidH1732 saidH559 to NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, Lo, I dwellH3427 in an houseH1004 of cedarsH730, but the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 remaineth under curtainsH3407.
2Then NathanH5416 saidH559 to DavidH1732, DoH6213 all that is in thy heartH3824; for GodH430 is with thee.
3And it came to pass the same nightH3915, that the wordH1697 of GodH430 came to NathanH5416, sayingH559,
4GoH3212 and tellH559 DavidH1732 my servantH5650, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Thou shalt not buildH1129 me an houseH1004 to dwell inH3427:
5For I have not dwelt inH3427 an houseH1004 since the dayH3117 that I brought upH5927 IsraelH3478 to this dayH3117; but have gone from tentH168 to tentH168, and from one tabernacleH4908 to another .1
6Wherever I have walkedH1980 with all IsraelH3478, have I spokenH1696 a wordH1697 to anyH259 of the judgesH8199 of IsraelH3478, whom I commandedH6680 to feedH7462 my peopleH5971, sayingH559, Why have ye not builtH1129 me an houseH1004 of cedarsH730?
7Now therefore thus shalt thou sayH559 to my servantH5650 DavidH1732, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, I tookH3947 thee from the sheepfoldH5116, even from followingH310 the sheepH6629, that thou shouldest be rulerH5057 over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478:2
8And I have been with thee wherever thou hast walkedH1980, and have cut offH3772 all thy enemiesH341 from beforeH6440 thee, and have madeH6213 thee a nameH8034 like the nameH8034 of the great menH1419 that are in the earthH776.
9Also I will ordainH7760 a placeH4725 for my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and will plantH5193 them, and they shall dwellH7931 in their place, and shall be movedH7264 no more; neither shall the childrenH1121 of wickednessH5766 wasteH1086 them any moreH3254, as at the beginningH7223,
