1 Kings 8:25-29

25Therefore, Lord God of Israel, keep what you promised to your servant, my father David: You will never fail to have a man to sit before me on the throne of Israel, if only your sons take care to walk before me as you have walked before me.

26Now Lord God of Israel, please confirm what you promised to your servant, my father David.

27But will God indeed live on earth? Even heaven, the highest heaven, cannot contain you, much less this temple I have built.

28Listen to your servant’s prayer and his petition, Lord my God, so that you may hear the cry and the prayer that your servant prays before you today,

29so that your eyes may watch over this temple night and day, toward the place where you said, “My name will be there,” and so that you may hear the prayer that your servant prays toward this place.
