2he said to Nathan the prophet, “Here I am, living in a house of cedar, while the ark of God remains in a tent.”
3And Nathan replied to the king, “Go and do all that is in your heart, for the LORD is with you.”
4But that night the word of the LORD came to Nathan, saying,
5“Go and tell My servant David that this is what the LORD says: Are you the one to build for Me a house to dwell in?
