1 Chronicles 29:17-19
New Century Version
17 I know, my God, that you test people’s hearts.
You are happy when people do what is right.
I was happy to give all these things,
and I gave with an honest heart.
Your people gathered here are happy to give to you,
and I rejoice to see their giving.
18 Lord, you are the God of our ancestors,
the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Make your people want to serve you always,
and make them want to obey you.
19 Give my son Solomon a desire to serve you.
Help him always obey your commands, laws, and rules.
Help him build the Temple
for which I have prepared.”
