‘Since the day that I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house, that my name might be there; but I chose David to be over my people Israel.’

Since the day{H3117} that I brought forth{H3318}{(H8689)} my people{H5971} Israel{H3478} out of Egypt{H4714}, I chose{H977}{(H8804)} no city{H5892} out of all the tribes{H7626} of Israel{H3478} to build{H1129}{(H8800)} an house{H1004}, that my name{H8034} might be therein; but I chose{H977}{(H8799)} David{H1732} to be over my people{H5971} Israel{H3478}.
