2 Chronicles 6:6 Context
4And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who hath with his handes fulfilled that which he spake with his mouth to my father Dauid, saying, 5Since the day that I brought foorth my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no citie among all the tribes of Israel to builde an house in, that my Name might be there, neither chose I any man to be a ruler ouer my people Israel: 6But I haue chosen Ierusalem, that my name might be there, and haue chosen Dauid to be ouer my people Israel. 7Now it was in the heart of Dauid my father to build an house for the Name of the Lord God of Israel. 8But the Lord said to Dauid my father: Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to builde an house for my Name, thou diddest well in that it was in thine heart.
