2 Samuel 7:2

And Uriah said to David, “The ark and Israel and Judah are staying in booths, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are camping in the open field. Shall I then go to my house to eat and to drink and to lie with my wife? By your life and the life of your soul, I will not do this thing.”

Then Yahweh sent Nathan to David. And he came to him and said, “There were two men in one city, the one rich and the other poor.

“And it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel.

Now it happened when David inhabited his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, “Behold, I inhabit a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of Yahweh is under tent curtains.”

And David said to Solomon, “My son, I had it within my heart to build a house to the name of Yahweh my God.

Now the acts of King David, from first to last, behold, they are written in the chronicles of Samuel the seer, in the chronicles of Nathan the prophet and in the chronicles of Gad the seer,

He then caused the Levites to stand in the house of Yahweh with cymbals, with harps, and with lyres, according to the command of David and of Gad the king’s seer, and of Nathan the prophet; for the command was from Yahweh by the hand of His prophets.

Who says, ‘I will build myself a roomy house With spacious upper rooms And cut out its windows, Paneling it with cedar and painting it bright red.’

“David found favor in the sight of God, and asked that he might find a dwelling place for the God of Jacob.
