2 Chronicles 6:11-13

International Children’s Bible

¹¹ I have put the Ark of the Covenant there. The agreement that the Lord made with the people of Israel is kept in the Ark of the Covenant.”

Solomon’s Prayer

¹² Solomon stood in front of the Lord’s altar. He was standing before all the people gathered there. Then he spread his arms out. ¹³ He had made a bronze platform. It was 7½ feet long, 7½ feet wide and 7½ feet high. And he had placed it in the middle of the outer courtyard. Solomon stood on the platform. Then he kneeled in front of all the people of Israel who were gathered there. Solomon spread his hands out toward the sky.
