1 Kings 5:4

---

← 1 Kings 5:3	1 Kings 5:4 (KJV)	1 Kings 5:5 →
Thou knowest how that David my father could not build an house unto the name of the LORD his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the LORD put them under the soles of his feet.	But now the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, [so that there is] neither adversary nor evil occurrent.	And, behold, I purpose to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy throne in thy room, he shall build an house unto my name.
