You absolutely must have Con 18!! This will give you lots of extra HP (Life), so don't skimp there. You have to have at least 17 Cha, so you have to leave points there. You also have to have at least 13 Wis, so you have to leave points there.

Go for 18/xx STR, as someone else said you can give the Girdles of STR to weaker NPCs. You can sacrifice a little bit on DEX, as there are items that will get you to 18 DEX. INT really doesn't matter for a Paladin, I've left mine at 3, and used a potion on the rare occasion that I needed a high INT.

Oh, and DEFINITELY go with 2H-sword and 2H-weapon style for your weapon profs. There are lots of good 2H swords in the game, and you want your paladin to be able to use them!
