1 Kings 8:27-30

27But will GodH430 in veryH2088 deed dwellH3427 on the earthH776? beholdH2009, heavenH8064 and the heavenH8064 of heavensH8064 cannotH3808 containH3557 thee; howH834 muchH637 lessH637 this houseH1004 that I have builded!

28Yet have thou respectH6437 unto the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and to his supplicationH8467, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, to hearken unto the cryH7440 and to the prayerH8605 whichH834 thy servantH5650 prayeth beforeH6440 thee this dayH3117:

29that thine eyesH5869 may be openH6605 towardH413 this houseH1004 nightH3915 and dayH3117, even towardH413 the placeH4725 whereof thou hast saidH559, My nameH8034 shall be there: to hearken unto the prayerH8605 whichH834 thy servantH5650 shall prayH6419 towardH413 this placeH4725.

30And hearken thou to the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, when they shall prayH6419 towardH413 this placeH4725: yea, hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4725; and when thou hearest, forgiveH5545.
