to walk in His ways." As it was the
Lord's plan that Solomon and none other
'of the sons of David should sit on his
throne. so it surely came to pass (1‘ Chloe.
xxil, 9). “Every purpose of the Lord shall
be perfonuod” (Jar. ll. :39). ”The Lord
of hosts hath sworn. saying, Surelyus I
have thought so shall it 04mm to pass, and
as l have purpoml so shall it stand" (lieu.
