'For My Name' in the Bible

Here I am, intending to build a house for the name of Yahweh my God, as Yahweh promised to my father David, saying, 'Your son, whom I will set in your place on your throne, shall build the house for my name.'

but Yahweh said to David my father, 'Because {you desired} to build a house for my name, you did well in that it was within your heart.

However, you will not build the house, but your son who has come from your loins, he shall build the house for my name.'

then I will cut Israel off from the face of the land that I have given to them, [even] the house which I have consecrated for my name I will cast away from my face; and Israel shall become a proverb and an object of taunting among all the peoples.
