And now I have seen with joy how willingly your people who are here have given to you.^{(B) 18} Lord, the God of our fathers Abraham, Isaac and Israel, keep these desires and thoughts in the hearts of your people forever, and keep their hearts loyal to you. ¹⁹ And give my son Solomon the wholehearted devotion^(C) to keep your commands, statutes and decrees^(D) and to do everything to build the palatial structure for which I have provided.”^(E)
