1 Cronache 28:5-6

5 e fra tutti i miei figliuoli giacché l’Eterno mi ha dati molti figliuoli egli ha scelto il figliuol mio Salomone, perché segga sul trono dell’Eterno, che regna sopra Israele.

6 Egli m’ha detto: Salomone, tuo figliuolo, sarà quegli che edificherà la mia casa e i miei cortili; poiché io l’ho scelto per mio figliuolo, ed io gli sarò padre.
