1 Chronicles 28:9

28:9 “And you, Solomon my son, obey ⁴  the God of your father and serve him with a submissive attitude and a willing spirit, ⁵  for the Lord examines all minds and understands every motive of one’s thoughts. If you seek him, he will let you find him, ⁶  but if you abandon him, he will reject you permanently.

[12:38]  ³ tn Heb “and also all the rest of Israel [was of] one mind to make David king.”
