1 And it will be when the king sat in his house, and Jehovah gave rest to him from round about from all his enemies. 2 And the king will say to Nathan the prophet, See now, me dwelling in a house of cedars, and the ark of God dwelling in midst of the curtains. 3 And Nathan will say to the king, All which, is in thy heart, do; for Jehovah is with thee. 4 And it will be in that night, and the word of Jehovah will be to Nathan, saying, 5 Go and say to my servant, to David, Thus said Jehovah, Shalt thou build me an house for my resting? 6 For I dwelt not in a house from the day I brought up the sons of Israel from Egypt even to this day, and I shall be going in a tent and in a dwelling. 7 And in all where I went among all the sons of Israel spake I a word with one of the judges of Israel whom I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, Why built ye not to me a house of cedars? 8 And now thus shalt thou say to my servant, to David, Thus said Jehovah of armies, I took thee from quiet, from after the sheep, to be ruler over my people, over Israel: 9 And I will be with thee in all where thou wilt go, and I will cut off all thine enemies from thy face, and I made to thee a great name as the name of the great which are upon the earth. 2 Samuel 7:1-9, Smith's Literal Translation.
