1 Chronicles 28:5-6; 1 Chronicles 28:10

5 And out of all my sons-for the Lord has given me many sons-He has chosen my son Solomon to sit on the throne of the Lord's kingdom over Israel.

6 He said to me, 'Your son Solomon is the one who is to build My house and My courts, for I have chosen him to be My son, and I will be his father.

10 Realize now that the Lord has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary. Be strong, and do it."
