1 Kings 8:56-61

56Blessed be Yhwh, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.1

57Yhwh our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:

58That he may incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.

59And let these my words, wherewith I have made supplication before Yhwh, be nigh unto Yhwh our God day and night, that he maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel at all times, as the matter shall require:2

60That all the people of the earth may know that Yhwh is God, and that there is none else.

61Let your heart therefore be perfect with Yhwh our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.
