2 Chronicles 6:7-9
Darby Translation
7 And it was in the heart of David my father to build a house unto the name of Jehovah the God of Israel.
8 But Jehovah said to David my father, Whereas it was in thy heart to build a house unto my name, thou didst well that it was in thy heart;
9 nevertheless thou shalt not build the house; but thy son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house unto my name.
