20 So the Lord has fulfilled His word which He spoke; and I have¹ filled the position of my father David, and sit on the throne of Israel, ^aas the Lord promised; and I have built a temple for the name of the Lord God of Israel.

21 And there I have made a place for the ark, in which is ^athe covenant of the Lord which He made with our fathers, when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.”
