In context
3 Nathan said to the king, “Go, do all that is in your heart, for the LORD is with you.”
4 That same night, the LORD’s word came to Nathan, saying,
5 “Go and tell my servant David, ‘The LORD says, “Should you build me a house for me to dwell in?
6 For I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought the children of Israel up out of Egypt, even to this day, but have moved around in a tent and in a tabernacle.
7 In all places in which I have walked with all the children of Israel, did I say a word to anyone from the tribes of Israel whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people Israel, saying, ‘Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’”’
