29 David the king now said to all the congregation:+ “Solʹo·mon my son, the one [whom] God has chosen,+ is young+ and delicate, but the work is great; for the castle* is not for man,+ but for Jehovah God.

6 But I said: “Alas, O Sovereign Lord Jehovah! Here I actually do not know how to speak,+ for I am but a boy.”*+

12 Whoever exalts himself will be humbled,+ and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.+

9 and yet he really said to me: “My undeserved kindness is sufficient+ for you; for [my] power is being made perfect in weakness.”+ Most gladly, therefore, will I rather boast as respects my weaknesses,+ that the power of the Christ may like a tent remain over me.
