2 Chronicles 9:7-9
New International Reader's Version
7 How happy your people must be! How happy your officials must be! They always get to serve you and hear the wise things you say. 8 May the Lord your God be praised. He takes great delight in you. He placed you on his throne as king. He put you there to rule for him. Your God loves Israel very much. He longs to take good care of them forever. That’s why he has made you king over them. He knows that you will do what is fair and right.”
