1 Kings 8:37-39

Evangelical Heritage Version

When each one knows the affliction of his own heart, when he spreads out his hands toward this house, ³⁹ hear in heaven, your dwelling place, and forgive. Then act and give to each person according to all his ways, because you know his heart (yes, you alone know the heart of every human being),
