“And now the Lord my God has given me rest on every side, (there is) neither adversary* nor evil occurrence.

“And, behold, I purpose to build a house for the name of the Lord my God, as the Lord spoke to David my father, saying, ‘Your son whom I will set upon your throne in your place, he shall build a house for My name.’”
