2 Chronicles 6:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ The Lord said to him: Forasmuch as it was thy will to build a house to my name, thou hast done well indeed in having such a will:

⁹ But thou shalt not build the house, but thy son, who shall come out of thy loins, he shall build a house to my name.

¹⁰ The Lord therefore hath accomplished his word which he spoke: and I am risen up in the place of David my father, and sit upon the throne of Israel, as the Lord promised: and have built a house to the name of the Lord God of Israel.
