1 Kings 8:17-19

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁷ Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the Name [the Presence] of the Lord, the God of Israel.

¹⁸ And the Lord said to David my father, Whereas it was in your heart to build a house for My Name, you did well that it was in your heart.

¹⁹ Yet you shall not build the house, but your son, who shall be born to you, shall build it to My Name [and My actively present Person].
