2 The king said to Nathan the prophet, See now, I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of God is housed inside the curtains of a tent.
3 And Nathan said to the king, Go and do whatever is in your heart; for the Lord is with you.
4 Now that night the word of the Lord came to Nathan, saying,
5 Go and say to my servant David, The Lord says, Are you to be the builder of a house, a living-place for me?
6 For from the day when I took the children of Israel up out of Egypt till this day, I have had no house, but have gone from place to place in a tent.
