2 Chronicles 6:14-21

14He said, “O Lord, the God of Israel, 1there is no god like You in heaven or on earth, 2keeping covenant and showing lovingkindness to Your servants who walk before You with all their heart; 153who has kept with Your servant David, my father, that which You have 4promised him; indeed You have spoken with Your mouth and have fulfilled it with Your hand, as it is this day. 16Now therefore, O Lord, the God of Israel, keep with Your servant David, my father, that which You have 5promised him, saying, ‘67You shall not lack a man to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your sons take heed to their way, to walk in My law as you have walked before Me.’ 17Now therefore, O Lord, the God of Israel, let Your word be confirmed which You have spoken to Your servant David.

18“But 8will God indeed dwell with mankind on the earth? Behold, 9heaven and the 10highest heaven cannot contain You; how much less this house which I have built. 19Yet have regard to the prayer of Your servant and to his supplication, O Lord my God, to listen to the cry and to the prayer which Your servant prays before You; 20that Your 11eye may be open toward this house day and night, toward 12the place of which You have said that You would put Your name there, to listen to the prayer which Your servant shall pray toward this place. 21Listen to the supplications of Your servant and of Your people Israel when they pray toward this place; hear from Your dwelling place, from heaven; 13hear and forgive.
