1 Chronicles 17:3-5

Darby Translation

³ And it came to pass that night that the word of God came to Nathan saying,

⁴ Go and say to David my servant, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou shalt not build me a house to dwell in;

⁵ for I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Israel to this day; but I have been from tent to tent, and from [one] tabernacle [to another].
