1 Kings 8:18-20

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁸ “And the LORD said to David, my father, ‘Insomuch as it was in your heart to build a House to My Name, you did well that you were so minded.

¹⁹ ‘Nevertheless, you shall not build the House. But your son, who shall come out of your loins, he shall build the House to My Name.’

²⁰ “And the LORD has made good His Word that He spoke. And I have risen up in the room of David, my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built the House for the Name of the LORD God of Israel.
