2 Samuel 7:4 In-Context

2 il dit à Nathan le prophète: Vois donc! j'habite dans une maison de cèdre, et l'arche de Dieu habite au milieu d'une tente.
3 Nathan répondit au roi: Va, fais tout ce que tu as dans le coeur, car l'Eternel est avec toi.
4 La nuit suivante, la parole de l'Eternel fut adressée à Nathan:
5 Va dire à mon serviteur David: Ainsi parle l'Eternel: Est-ce toi qui me bâtirais une maison pour que j'en fasse ma demeure?
6 Mais je n'ai point habité dans une maison depuis le jour où j'ai fait monter les enfants d'Israël hors d'Egypte jusqu'à ce jour; j'ai voyagé sous une tente et dans un tabernacle.
