Indeed, he chose Judah as leader, and my father’s family within Judah, and then he picked me out from among my father’s sons and made me king over all Israel. 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.
