2 Samuel 7:1-3 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. The king settled down in his palace. The Lord had given him peace and rest from all of his enemies who were around him.

2. Then the king spoke to the prophet Nathan. He said, "Here I am, living in a palace that has beautiful cedar walls. But the ark of God remains in a tent."

3. Nathan replied to the king, "Go ahead and do what you want to. The Lord is with you."
