1 Kings 8:25-29

25“And now, O Lord, God of Israel, carry out the additional promise you made to your servant David, my father. For you said to him, ‘If your descendants guard their behavior and faithfully follow me as you have done, one of them will always sit on the throne of Israel.’

26Now, O God of Israel, fulfill this promise to your servant David, my father.

27“But will God really live on earth? Why, even the highest heavens cannot contain you. How much less this Temple I have built!

28Nevertheless, listen to my prayer and my plea, O Lord my God. Hear the cry and the prayer that your servant is making to you today.

29May you watch over this Temple night and day, this place where you have said, ‘My name will be there.’ May you always hear the prayers I make toward this place.
