1 Chronicles 28:2-9
2And kingH4428 DavidH1732 stoodH6965 up upon his feetH7272, and saidH559, HearH8085 me, my brethren and my peopleH5971! I had in my heartH3824 to buildH1129 a houseH1004 of restH4496 for the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah and for the footstool of our 1GodH430, and I have preparedH3559 to buildH1129.
3But 2GodH430 saidH559 to me, Thou shalt not buildH1129 a houseH1004 unto my nameH8034, for thou art a manH376 of warH4421, and hast shedH8210 bloodH1818.
4And Jehovah the 3GodH430 of IsraelH3478 choseH977 me out of all the houseH1004 of my fatherH1 to beH1961 kingH4428 over IsraelH3478 for everH5769; for he has chosenH977 JudahH3063 to beH1961 the princeH5057; and of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, the houseH1004 of my fatherH1; and among the sonsH1121 of my fatherH1 he took pleasureH7521 in me to make me kingH4428 over all IsraelH3478;
5and of all my sonsH1121, (for Jehovah has givenH5414 me manyH7227 sonsH1121,) he has chosenH977 SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 to sitH3427 upon the throneH3678 of the kingdomH4438 of Jehovah over IsraelH3478.
6And he saidH559 to me, SolomonH8010 thy sonH1121, he shall buildH1129 my houseH1004 and my courts; for I have chosenH977 him to beH1961 my sonH1121, and I will beH1961 his fatherH1.
7And I will establishH3559 his kingdomH4438 for everH5769, if he be firm to do my commandmentsH4687 and mine ordinancesH4941, as at this dayH3117.
8And nowH6258 in the sight of all IsraelH3478, the congregation of Jehovah, and in the audience of our 4GodH430, — keepH8104 and seekH1875 for all the commandmentsH4687 of Jehovah your 5GodH430; that ye may possessH3423 the goodH2896 landH776, and leave it as an inheritanceH5157 to your children after you for everH5769.
9And thou, SolomonH8010 my sonH1121, knowH3045 the 6GodH430 of thy fatherH1, and serveH5647 him with a perfectH8003 heartH3820 and with a willing mind; for Jehovah searchesH1875 all heartsH3820, and discerns all the imaginations of the thoughtsH4284. If thou seekH1875 him, he will be foundH4672 of thee; but if thou forsakeH5800 him, he will cut thee off for everH5703.
