1 Chronicles 16:43

Context

16:43 Then all the people returned to their homes, and David went to pronounce a blessing on his family. 1 

1 Chronicles 23:25

Context
23:25 For David said, “The Lord God of Israel has given his people rest and has permanently settled in Jerusalem. 2 

1 tn Heb “to bless his house.” Elsewhere when “house” is the object of “bless,” it refers to a household or family. See, for example, 1 Chr 13:14; 17:27. However, since בֵּית (bet, “house”) refers to a literal house or home earlier in the verse and to David’s palace in 17:1, one might translate here, “David went to pronounce a blessing on [i.e., dedicate] his house [i.e., palace].”
