2 Chronicles 6:16-18
Jubilee Bible 2000
16 Now, therefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with thy slave David, my father, that which thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the throne of Israel, under the condition that thy sons keep their way, walking in my law, as thou hast walked before me.
17 Now then, O LORD God of Israel, let thy word stand firm, which thou hast spoken unto thy slave David.
18 Is it true that God is to dwell with men on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built!

New International Version
16 “Now, Lord, the God of Israel, keep for your servant David my father the promises you made to him when you said, ‘You shall never fail(A) to have a successor to sit before me on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants are careful in all they do to walk before me according to my law,(B) as you have done.’ 17 And now, Lord, the God of Israel, let your word that you promised your servant David come true.
18 “But will God really dwell(C) on earth with humans? The heavens,(D) even the highest heavens, cannot contain you. How much less this temple I have built!
