1 Chronicles 28:5-7

New International Version

⁵ Of all my sons—and the Lord has given me many^(A)—he has chosen my son Solomon^(B) to sit on the throne^(C) of the kingdom of the Lord over Israel. ⁶ He said to me: ‘Solomon your son is the one who will build^(D) my house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be my son,^(E) and I will be his father. ⁷ I will establish his kingdom forever if he is unswerving in carrying out my commands and laws,^(F) as is being done at this time.’
