1 Chronicles 22:8 in Context — 1 Chronicles 22
6 David appela Salomon, son fils, et lui ordonna de bâtir une maison à l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël.
7 David dit à Salomon: Mon fils, j’avais l’intention de bâtir une maison au nom de l’Éternel, mon Dieu.
8 Mais la parole de l’Éternel m’a été ainsi adressée: Tu as versé beaucoup de sang, et tu as fait de grandes guerres; tu ne bâtiras pas une maison à mon nom, car tu as versé devant moi beaucoup de sang sur la terre.
9 Voici, il te naîtra un fils, qui sera un homme de repos, et à qui je donnerai du repos en le délivrant de tous ses ennemis d’alentour; car Salomon sera son nom, et je ferai venir sur Israël la paix et la tranquillité pendant sa vie.
10 Ce sera lui qui bâtira une maison à mon nom. Il sera pour moi un fils, et je serai pour lui un père; et j’affermirai pour toujours le trône de son royaume en Israël.
