"I will announce," says the king, "what the LORD has declared. He said to me: 'You are my son; today I have become your father.

(SEE 13:32)

I will be his father, and he will be my son. When he does wrong, I will punish him as a father punishes his son.

I will be his father, and he will be my son. I will not withdraw my support from him as I did from Saul, whom I removed so that you could be king.

He will build a temple for me. He will be my son, and I will be his father. His dynasty will rule Israel forever.' "

"The LORD said to me, 'Your son Solomon is the one who will build my Temple. I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.

He will say to me, 'You are my father and my God; you are my protector and savior.'

I will make him my first-born son, the greatest of all kings.
