New Testament

1 Chronicles 17:1-5 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

1. Now it came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in a house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD remains under curtains.

2. Then Nathan said unto David, Do all that is in your heart; for God is with you.

3. And it came to pass the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,

4. Go and tell David my servant, Thus says the LORD, You shall not build me a house to dwell in:

5. For I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Israel unto this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from one tabernacle to another.
