Solomon Blesses Yahweh
54 (A)Now it happened that when Solomon had [a]finished praying this entire prayer and supplication to Yahweh, (B)he arose from before the altar of Yahweh, from kneeling on his knees with his [b]hands spread toward heaven. 55 And he stood and (C)blessed all the assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying:
56 “Blessed be Yahweh, who has given rest to His people Israel, (D)according to all that He [c]promised; (E)not one promise has [d]failed of all His good [e]promises, which He [f]promised by the hand of Moses His [g]servant.
