1 Kings 5:3-5
New Living Translation
3 “You know that my father, David, was not able to build a Temple to honor the name of the Lord his God because of the many wars waged against him by surrounding nations. He could not build until the Lord gave him victory over all his enemies. 4 But now the Lord my God has given me peace on every side; I have no enemies, and all is well. 5 So I am planning to build a Temple to honor the name of the Lord my God, just as he had instructed my father, David. For the Lord told him, ‘Your son, whom I will place on your throne, will build the Temple to honor my name.’
1 Kings 5:3-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 “You know my father David was not able to build a temple for the name of Yahweh his God. This was because of the warfare all around him until the Lord put his enemies under his feet.(A) 4 The Lord my God has now given me rest all around; there is no enemy or crisis.(B) 5 So I plan to build a temple for the name of Yahweh my God,(C) according to what the Lord promised my father David: ‘I will put your son on your throne in your place, and he will build the temple for My name.’(D)
