1 Kings 8:52-54

New Catholic Bible

⁵² May your eyes be open to see the supplication of your servant and the supplication of your people Israel. Listen to them whenever they call out to you, ⁵³ for you separated your inheritance from all the other people upon the earth, as you declared through Moses your servant, when you O Lord, my Lord, brought our fathers out of Egypt.”

⁵⁴ When Solomon had finished saying all of these prayers and supplications to the Lord, he rose up from before the altar of the Lord where he had been kneeling with his hands lifted up to the heavens.
