1 Chronicles 22:7-9
English Standard Version
7 David said to Solomon, “My son, (A)I had it in my heart to build a house to the name of the Lord my God. 8 But the word of the Lord came to me, saying, (B)‘You have shed much blood and have waged great wars. You shall not build a house to my name, because you have shed so much blood before me on the earth. 9 Behold, a son shall be born to you who shall be a man of rest. (C)I will give him rest from all his surrounding enemies. (D)For his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quiet to Israel in his days.
