1 Chronicles 22:7-9

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁷ “My son,” David said to Solomon, “It was in my heart to build a house for the name of Yahweh my God,^{(A) 8} but the word of the Lord came to me: ‘You have shed much blood and waged great wars. You are not to build a house for My name because you have shed so much blood on the ground before Me.^{(B) 9} But a son will be born to you; he will be a man of rest. I will give him rest from all his surrounding enemies,^(C) for his name will be Solomon,^[a](D) and I will give peace and quiet to Israel during his reign.^(E)
