2 Chronicles 6:6

Solomon Blesses The People

⁵ From the day I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt, I made choice of no city, out of all the tribes of Israel, for building a house, where my Name might be, - neither made I choice of any man, to be chief ruler over my people Israel: ⁶ nevertheless I have made choice of Jerusalem, that my Name might be there, - and I have made choice of David, that he might be over my people Israel. ⁷ And so it came to pass, that it was near the heart of David my father, - to build a house, to the Name of Yahweh, God of Israel.
