5 From all the many sons the LORD has given me, he chose Solomon my son to rule on his behalf over Israel.

6 He said to me, 'Solomon your son is the one who will build my temple and my courts, for I have chosen him to become my son and I will become his father.

7 I will establish his kingdom permanently, if he remains committed to obeying my commands and regulations, as you are doing this day.'
