2 Chronicles 6:8-10

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

⁸ However, the Lord said to my father David,
‘Since it was your desire to build a temple for my name,
you have done well to have this desire.
⁹ Yet, you are not the one to build the temple,
but your son, your own offspring,
will build the temple for my name.’
¹⁰ So the Lord has fulfilled what he promised.
I have taken the place of my father David
and I sit on the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised.
I have built the temple for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
