(B)Because the Lord loves His people, He has made you king over them.
12 [a]Hiram also said:
(C)Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, (D)who made heaven and earth, for He has given King David a wise son, endowed with prudence and understanding, who will build a temple for the Lord and a royal house for himself!
