And they have lived in it and have built for you in it a sanctuary for your name, saying, (C)‘If disaster comes upon us, the sword, judgment,[a] or pestilence, or famine, (D)we will stand before this house and before you—(E)for your name is in this house—and cry out to you in our affliction, and you will hear and save.’
