but the word of the Lord came to me, saying, (A)‘You have shed much blood and have made great wars; you shall not build a house for My name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in My sight. (B)Behold, a son shall be born to you, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him (C)rest from all his enemies all around. His name shall be [a]Solomon, for I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days. 10 (D)He shall build a house for My name, and (E)he shall be My son, and I will be his Father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’
