1 Chronicles 28:5-7

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁵ and of all my sons (for the LORD has given me many sons) he has chosen Solomon, my son, to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.

⁶ And he said unto me, Solomon, thy son, he shall build my house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

⁷ Moreover, I will establish his kingdom for ever if he is constant to do my commandments and my judgments as at this day.
