1 Chronicles 28:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ “He told me, ‘Your son Solomon will build my temple and my courtyards because I have chosen him to be my son. I will be his father. ⁷ I will establish his kingdom forever if he will remain determined to obey my commands and laws, as he is doing today.’ ⁸ Now, ⌞leaders, I order you⌟ in the sight of Israel (the Lord’s congregation) and as our God listens to dedicate your lives to doing everything the Lord your God has commanded. Then you will be able to possess this good land and leave it as an inheritance to your descendants.
