He stood on it, knelt down in front of the entire congregation of Israel, and spread out his hands toward heaven. 14He said: 15You have kept what you promisedto your servant, my father David.You spoke directly to him,and you fulfilled your promise by your power,as it is today.16Therefore, Lord God of Israel,keep what you promisedto your servant, my father David:“You will never fail to have a manto sit before me on the throne of Israel,if only your sons guard their way to walk in my Lawas you have walked before me.” 17Now, Lord God of Israel, please confirmwhat you promised to your servant David. 18But will God indeed live on earth with humans?Even heaven, the highest heaven, cannot contain you,much less this temple I have built. 19Listen to your servant’s prayer and his petition,Lord my God,so that you may hear the cry and the prayerthat your servant prays before you, 20so that your eyes watch over this templeday and night,toward the place where you saidyou would put your name;and so that you may hear the prayeryour servant prays toward this place. 21Hear the petitions of your servantand your people Israel,which they pray toward this place.May you hear in your dwelling place in heaven.May you hear and forgive.
