⁸ But this word of the Lord came to me: ‘You have shed much blood and have fought many wars.^(A) You are not to build a house for my Name,^(B) because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight. ⁹ But you will have a son who will be a man of peace^(C) and rest,^(D) and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side. His name will be Solomon,^[a](E) and I will grant Israel peace and quiet^(F) during his reign. ¹⁰ He is the one who will build a house for my Name.^(G) He will be my son,^(H) and I will be his father. And I will establish^(I) the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’^(J)
