20 The LORD has kept the promise he made. I have taken my father David's place and have occupied the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised. I have built this temple for the honor of the LORD God of Israel 21 and set up in it a place for the ark containing the covenant the LORD made with our ancestors when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.| 1 Kings 8:20-21, New English Translation.
