*
And David said to Solomon ,
My son ,
as for me ,
it was in my mind to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God :
*
But the word of the LORD came to me ,
saying ,
Thou hast shed blood abundantly ,
and hast made great wars :
thou shalt not build an house unto my name ,
because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight .
*
Behold ,
a son shall be born to thee ,
who shall be a man of rest ;
and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about :
for his name shall be Solomon ,
and I will give peace and quietness unto Israel in his days .
