1 Kings 8:26-28

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁶ “So now, God of Israel,
may the promise you made to my father David,
your servant, come true.

²⁷ “Does God really live on earth?
If heaven itself, the highest heaven, cannot hold you,
then how can this temple that I have built?
²⁸ Nevertheless, my Lord God, please pay attention to my prayer for mercy.
Listen to my cry for help as I pray to you today.
