Divrey Hayamim Bais 6:4-6

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁴ And he said, Baruch Hashem Elohei Yisroel, Who hath with His hands fulfilled that which He spoke with His mouth to Dovid Avi, saying,

⁵ Since HaYom when I brought forth Ami out of Eretz Mitzrayim I chose no city among all the Shivtei Yisroel to build a Bais in, that Shmi might be there; neither chose I any ish to be a Nagid over Ami Yisroel,

⁶ But I chose Yerushalayim, that Shmi might be there; and chose Dovid to be over Ami Yisroel.
