54 Ug mao kadto, nga, sa tapus nga si Salomon nagpangamuyo sa tanang pag-ampo ug pakilooy kang Jehova, siya mitindog gikan sa atubangan sa halaran ni Jehova, gikan sa pagluhod sa iyang mga tuhod uban ang iyang mga kamot nga gibayaw ngadto sa langit.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it was so, that, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication unto the Lord,.... In which he was a type of Christ, praying and interceding for his people before the golden attar, Revelation 8:3,
he arose from before the altar of the Lord; the altar of burnt offering, over against which he was:
from kneeling on his knees; upon the brasen scaffold; see 2 Chronicles 6:13, in which posture he was during this long prayer:
with his hands spread up to heaven; which gesture he had used in his prayer, and now continued in blessing the people.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
If the prayer of Solomon be, as it has all the appearance of being, a genuine document of the time, preserved in the archives to which the authors of both Kings and Chronicles had access, all theories of the late origin of Deuteronomy must be regarded as baseless. While references are not infrequent to other portions of the Pentateuch, the language of the prayer is mainly modelled upon Deuteronomy, the promises and threats contained in which are continually before the mind of the writer.
