2 Chronicles 6:8 CPDV

⁶  But I chose Jerusalem, so that my name would be in it. And I chose David, so that I might appoint him over my people Israel.'

⁷  And though David, my father, had decided that he would build a house to the name of the Lord God of Israel,

⁸  the Lord said to him: 'In so far as it was your will that you build a house to my name, certainly you have done well in having such a will.

⁹  But you shall not build the house. Truly, your son, who will go forth from your loins, shall build a house to my name.'

¹⁰  Therefore, the Lord has accomplished his word, which he had spoken. And I have risen up in place of my father David, and I sit upon the throne of Israel, just as the Lord spoke. And I have built a house to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
