- Thou shalt not:
- "And Davidª saidª° to Solomon,ª My son,ª as for me,¹ it was¹ in¹ my mindª to buildª° an houseª unto the nameª of the LORDª my God:ª ... But the wordª of the LORDª came¹ to¹ me, saying,ª° Thou hast shedª° bloodª abundantly,ª and hast madeª° greatª wars:ª thou shalt not¹ buildª° an houseª unto my name,ª because¹ thou hast shedª° muchª bloodª upon the earthª in my sight.ª" {1Ch 22:7-8} + "Then Davidª the kingª stood upª° upon¹ his feet,ª and said,ª° Hearª° me, my brethren,ª and my people:ª [As for me], I¹ [had] in¹ mine heartª to buildª° an houseª of restª for the arkª of the covenantª of the LORD,ª and for the footstoolªª of our God,ª and had made readyª° for the building:ª° ... But Godª saidª° unto me, Thou shalt not¹ buildª° an houseª for my name,ª because¹ thou¹ [hast been] a manª of war,ª and hast shedª° blood.ª" {1Ch 28:2-3} + "And it came to pass¹ that¹ night,ª that the wordª of the LORDª came¹ unto¹ Nathan,ª saying,ª° ...
