1 Chronicles 28:3-6 But God said unto me, You shall not build an house for my name, because you have been a man of war, and have shed blood.

UKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ But God said unto me, You shall not build an house for my name, because you have been a man of war, and have shed blood. ⁴ Nevertheless the LORD God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he has chosen Judah to be the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he liked me to make me king over all Israel: ⁵ And of all my sons, (for the LORD has given me many sons,) he has chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel. ⁶ And he said unto me, Solomon your son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.
