 16:43 And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.

 17:1 Now it came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in an house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the Lord remaineth under curtains.

 17:2 Then Nathan said unto David, Do all that is in thine heart; for God is with thee.

 17:3 And it came to pass the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,

 17:4 Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:

 17:5 For I have not dwelt in an house since the day that I brought up Israel unto this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from one tabernacle to another.

 17:6 Wheresoever I have walked with all Israel, spake I a word to any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, Why have ye not built me an house of cedars?
