2 So David commanded to gather the ^aaliens who were in the land of Israel; and he appointed masons to ^bcut hewn stones to build the house of God.

3 And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails of the doors of the gates and for the joints, and bronze in abundance ^abeyond measure,

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.
