1 Chronicles 22:4-6

Modern English Version

⁴ and cedar logs without number, for the Sidonians and the Tyrians brought much cedar wood to David.

⁵ Now David said, “Solomon my son is young and inexperienced, and the house that is to be built for the Lord must be exceedingly magnificent, of fame and glory throughout all the lands. Therefore I will make preparation for it now.” So David made extensive preparations before his death.

⁶ Then David called Solomon his son and commanded him to build a house for the Lord, the God of Israel.
