1 Chronicles 17:4-6
New International Version - UK
4 ‘Go and tell my servant David, “This is what the Lord says: you are not the one to build me a house to dwell in. 5 I have not dwelt in a house from the day I brought Israel up out of Egypt to this day. I have moved from one tent site to another, from one dwelling-place to another. 6 Wherever I have moved with all the Israelites, did I ever say to any of their leaders[a] whom I commanded to shepherd my people, ‘Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’”
