1 Chronicles 22:8-9

8 sed factus est ad me sermo Domini dicens multum sanguinem effudisti et plurima bella bellasti non poteris aedificare domum nomini meo tanto effuso sanguine coram me

9 filius qui nascetur tibi et erit vir quietissimus faciam enim eum requiescere ab omnibus inimicis suis per circuitum et ob hanc causam pacificus vocabitur et pacem et otium dabo in Israhel cunctis diebus eius
