Karl,

So you would put a comma or a period before למיום. It sounds like you are 
treating the lamed here as a causal conjunction, like כי for example. When 
you write “…in a house. For from the …” , do you see this verse giving the 
reason why God did not dwell in a house?

Karl,
 So would you translate the first part of 2 Sam 7:6 as
 "For I have not dwelt in a house for from the day I brought up the sons of 
Israel from Egypt until this day..."?

From the context, there should be at least a comma, if not a period, between 
“…in a house. For from the …”
