1 Kings 8:25-27

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁵ “Now, Lord God of Israel,
keep your promise to my father David, your servant.
You said, ‘You will never fail to have an heir
sitting in front of me on the throne of Israel
if your descendants are faithful to me
as you have been faithful to me.’

²⁶ “So now, God of Israel,
may the promise you made to my father David,
your servant, come true.

²⁷ “Does God really live on earth?
If heaven itself, the highest heaven, cannot hold you,
then how can this temple that I have built?
