MLV(i)
1 Then Solomon spoke, Jehovah has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
2 But I have built for you a house of habitation and a place for you to dwell in everlasting.
3 And the king turned his face and blessed all the assembly of Israel. And all the assembly of Israel stood. 4 And he said, Praise Jehovah, the God of Israel, who spoke with his mouth to David my father and has with his hands fulfilled it, saying, 5 Since the day that I brought out my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house in that my name might be there. Neither did I choose any man to be ruler over my people Israel. 6 But I have chosen Jerusalem that my name might be there. And have chosen David to be over my people Israel.
7 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel. 8 But Jehovah said to David my father, Because it was in your heart to build a house for my name, you did well that it was in your heart. 9 Nevertheless you will not build the house, but your son who will come forth out of your loins, he will build the house for my name.
10 And Jehovah has performed his word that he spoke. For I have risen up in the place of David my father and sit on the throne of Israel, as Jehovah promised and have built the house for the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel. 11 And there I have set the ark in which is the covenant of Jehovah, which he made with the sons of Israel.
