7 My father David wanted very much to build a temple to give honour to the Lord, Israel's God. 8 But the Lord said to my father David, “It was good that you wanted to build a temple to give me honour. 9 But you will not build the temple. Instead, one of your own sons will build it to give honour to me.”

New International Version
7 “My father David had it in his heart(A) to build a temple for the Name of the Lord, the God of Israel. 8 But the Lord said to my father David, ‘You did well to have it in your heart to build a temple for my Name. 9 Nevertheless, you are not the one to build the temple, but your son, your own flesh and blood—he is the one who will build the temple for my Name.’
