And Nathan said to David, Do all that is in thy heart; for God with thee.
3
And it came to pass in that night, that the word of the Lord came to Nathan, ,
4
Go and say to David my servant, Thus said the Lord, Thou shalt not build me a house for me to dwell in it.
5
For I have not dwelt in a house from the day that I brought up Israel until this day, but I have been in a tabernacle and a tent,
6
in all places through which I have gone with all Israel: did I ever speak to one tribe of Israel whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, that ye have not built me a house of cedar?
