1 Chronicles 28:8-9

Context
28:8 So now, in the sight of all Israel, the Lord’s assembly, and in the hearing of our God, I say this: 1  Carefully observe 2  all the commands of the Lord your God, so that you may possess this good land and may leave it as a permanent inheritance for your children after you.

28:9 “And you, Solomon my son, obey 3  the God of your father and serve him with a submissive attitude and a willing spirit, 4  for the Lord examines all minds and understands every motive of one’s thoughts. If you seek him, he will let you find him, 5  but if you abandon him, he will reject you permanently.
