4 and cedar trees in abundance; for the aSidonians and those from Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.
5 Now David said, a“Solomon my son is young and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the Lord must be exceedingly magnificent, famous and glorious throughout all countries. I will now make preparation for it.” So David made abundant preparations before his death.
6 Then he called for his son Solomon, and1 charged him to build a house for the Lord God of Israel.
7 And David said to Solomon: “My son, as for me, ait was in my mind to build a house bto the name of the Lord my God;
8 but the word of the Lord came to me, saying, a‘You have shed much blood and have made great wars; you shall not build a house for My name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in My sight.
