Saul; David; and Solomon were the first three kings of Israel; Each was chosen by God, although David was His "anointed one". Each believed faithfully and fully in their Monotheistic God, "Yahweh", King of Kings, however each continuously sinned and fell away from God and His laws, experienced enormous heartbreak and remorse, straighten up and followed His laws again.

King David was allowed by God to choose the site for the Temple into which the Ark of the Covenant would be housed, however because David had blood on his hands David was not allowed to build it. King Solomon followed King David as the third King of Israel and was allowed to build the Temple and house the Ark inside, however, because he also turned away from God; the Temple, the state of Israel, and his family all lay in ruins as his reign came to an end.

If you're interested in reading more about their peaks and valleys, check out the Book of Psams..many of which were written by David. Psalm 127 was written by Solomon just before his death as he surveyed the ruins of his Temple; Israel; and his family. Also notice all the Psalms written by Asaph who was the director in charge of music (Psalms are all lyrics to songs). Asaph was the only one present throughout King David's reign, as well as, King Solomon's and witnessed the Temple being built and subsequently being destroyed.
