1 Chronicles 28:8 in Context — 1 Chronicles 28

6 E me disse: Salomão teu filho, ele edificará minha casa e meus átrios: porque a este me escolhi por filho, e eu lhe serei a ele por pai.

7 Assim eu confirmarei seu reino para sempre, se ele se esforçar a executar meus mandamentos e meus juízos, como este dia.

8 Agora, pois, diante dos olhos de todo Israel, congregação do SENHOR, e em ouvidos de nosso Deus, guardai e inquiri todos os preceitos do SENHOR vosso Deus, para que possuais a boa terra, e a deixeis por herdade a vossos filhos depois de vós perpetuamente.

9 E tu, Salomão, meu filho, conhece o Deus de teu pai, e serve-o com coração completo e ânimo voluntário; porque o SENHOR examina os corações de todos, e entende todas as intenções dos pensamentos. Se tu o buscares, o acharás; mas se o deixares, ele te rejeitará para sempre.

10 Olha, pois, agora que o SENHOR te escolheu para que edifiques casa para santuário: esforça-te, e faze-a.
