KJV - 1 Chronicles 22:8
But the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build an house unto my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.
But God told me, "You've caused a lot of death and fought many big battles. So, you can't build a house for me because you've killed a lot of people while I watched.
