2 Chronicles 6:18

Solomon's Prayer To Dedicate The Temple

¹⁷ Now, LORD God of Israel, let thy saying be true, which thou saidest unto thy servant David. ¹⁸ Howbeit, in very deed, can God dwell with man on earth? Behold, neither heaven or heaven above all heavens is able to contain thee! How should the house then which I have built for thee do it? ¹⁹ But turn to the prayer of thy servant and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the voice and prayer which thy servant maketh before thee.
