Solomon’s Prayer(A)

22 In the presence of the entire assembly of Israel, Solomon stood in front of Yahweh’s altar. He stretched out his hands toward heaven 23 and said,

Yahweh Elohim of Israel,
    there is no god like you in heaven above or on earth below.
You keep your promise[a] of mercy to your servants,
    who obey you wholeheartedly.
24 You have kept your promise to my father David, your servant.
    With your mouth you promised it.
    With your hand you carried it out as it is today.
