1 Chronicles

1 Chronicles 22:8–10

⁸but this word of the LORD came to me: ‘You have shed much blood and waged great wars. You are not to build a house for My Name because you have shed so much blood on the ground before Me. ⁹But a son will be born to you who will be a man of rest. I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side; for his name will be Solomon,^a and I will grant to Israel peace and quiet during his reign. ¹⁰He is the one who will build a house for My Name. He will be My son, and I will be his Father. And I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.’

Footnotes

a 22:9 Solomon sounds like and is probably derived from the Hebrew word for peace.
