5 “Go, and say to my servant David: ‘Thus says the Lord: Should you build a house for me as a dwelling place? 6 For I have not lived in a house from the day that I led the sons of Israel away from the land of Egypt, even to this day. Instead, I have walked in a tabernacle, and in a tent. 7 And in all the places that I have crossed through, with all the sons of Israel, did I ever speak a word to anyone from the tribes of Israel, whom I instructed to pasture my people Israel, saying: Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’ 2 Samuel 7:5-7, Catholic Public Domain Version.
