1 Chronicles 17:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 Go, and tell David my servant, Thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:
5 For I have dwelt in no house since the day that I brought out the children of Israel unto this day, but I have been from tent to [a]tent, and from habitation to habitation.
6 Wherefore I have [b]walked with all Israel, spake I one word to any of the Judges of Israel (whom I commanded to feed my people) saying, Why have ye not built me an house of cedar trees?
