Jeremiah 7:14

וְעָשִׂ֜יתִי לַבַּ֣יִת אֲשֶׁ֧ר נִֽקְרָא־שְׁמִ֣י עָלָ֗יו אֲשֶׁ֤ר אַתֶּם֙ בֹּטְחִ֣ים בֹּ֔ו וְלַ֨מָּקֹ֔ום אֲשֶׁר־נָתַ֥תִּי לָכֶ֖ם וְלַאֲבֹֽותֵיכֶ֑ם כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשִׂ֖יתִי לְשִׁלֹֽו׃

and I will do to the house which is called by My name, in which you trust, and to the place that I gave to you and to your fathers, just as I did to Shilo.
