1 Kings 8:27-30

27But will 1God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, the heavens, and the heaven of heavens, cannot contain thee; how much less this house which I have built!

28Yet have respect unto the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, Jehovah, my 2God, to hearken unto the cry and to the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee this day;

29that thine eyes may be open upon this house night and day, upon the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant prayeth toward this place.

30And hearken unto the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place, and hear thou in thy dwelling-place, in the heavens, and when thou hearest, forgive.
