1 Chronicles 22:6-13

Rotherham(i) 6 Then he called for Solomon his son,––and charged him, to build a house, for Yahweh, God of Israel. 7 And David said to Solomon his son,––As for me, it was, near my heart, to build a house for the Name of Yahweh my God; 8 but the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying, Blood in abundance, hast thou shed, and, great wars, hast thou made,––thou shalt not build a house for my Name, because, much blood, hast thou shed upon the earth, before me. 9 Lo! a son, born to thee, He, shall be a man of rest, and I will give him rest from all his enemies, round about,––for, Solomon, shall be his Name, and, peace and quietness, will I bestow upon Israel, in his days; 10 He, shall build a house for my Name, and, he, shall be my son, and, I, will be his father,––therefore will I establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel, unto times age–abiding: 11 Now, my son, Yahweh be with thee,––so shalt thou be prosperous, and shalt build the house of Yahweh thy God, according as he hath spoken concerning thee. 12 Only Yahweh give thee discretion and understanding, and give thee charge over Israel,––so that thou take heed unto the law of Yahweh thy God. 13 Then, shalt thou prosper, if thou take heed to do the statutes and the regulations, which Yahweh commanded Moses, concerning Israel,––be strong and bold, thou mayst not be in fear, nor be dismayed.
