Now, our God, we give you thanks, and we praise your glorious name. Yet my people and I cannot really give you anything. This is because everything is a gift from you, and we have only given back what is yours already. You know, O Jehovah that we pass through life like exiles and strangers, as our ancestors did. Our days are like a passing shadow, and we cannot escape death. O Jehovah, our God, we have brought together all this wealth to build a Temple to honor your holy name. It all came from you and all belongs to you. I well know, O my God, that you test everyone's heart and are pleased with people of integrity. In honesty and sincerity I have willingly given all this to you. I have seen how your people who are gathered here have been happy to bring offerings to you. Jehovah, God of our ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, keep such devotion always strong in your people's hearts and keep them always faithful to you. Give my son Solomon a wholehearted desire to obey everything that you command and to build the Temple for which I have made these preparations.

That is how God will bless my descendants. He made an eternal covenant with me. It is an agreement that will not be broken, a promise that will not be changed. That is all I desire. That will be my victory, and God will surely bring it about. All the evildoers will be like thorns to be pushed away. They may not be gripped in the hand: But with a sharp spear. They are burned on the spot.'
