Complete Jewish Bible
17 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Adonai the God of Isra’el; 18 but Adonai said to David my father, ‘Although it was in your heart to build a house for my name, and you did well that it was in your heart, 19 nevertheless you will not build the house. Rather, you will father a son, and it will be he who will build the house for my name.’

New International Version
17 “My father David had it in his heart(A) to build a temple(B) for the Name of the Lord, the God of Israel. 18 But the Lord said to my father David, ‘You did well to have it in your heart to build a temple for my Name. 19 Nevertheless, you(C) are not the one to build the temple, but your son, your own flesh and blood—he is the one who will build the temple for my Name.’(D)
