1 Kings 8:38-40

New Catholic Bible

³⁸ and whatever prayer or supplication is made by anyone, or by all of your people Israel, because each person knows the plague of his own heart, and he lifts up his hands toward this temple, ³⁹ then listen from your heavenly dwelling place. Forgive, and act, and give each person what his ways deserve, for you know his heart, for you alone know all human hearts, ⁴⁰ so that they might fear you all the days that they live in the land that you gave our fathers.
