Expanded Bible

¹⁵ Now ·I will see them, and I will listen [my eyes will be open and my ears attentive; 6:40] to the prayers prayed in this place. ¹⁶ I have chosen this ·Temple [^Lhouse] and ·made it holy [consecrated/purified/sanctified it]. So ·I will be worshiped [^Lmy name will be] there forever. Yes, ·I will always watch over it and love it [^Lmy eyes and my heart will be there forever].

¹⁷ “But you must ·serve [^Lwalk before] me as your father David did. You must ·obey [do] all I have commanded and keep my laws and rules.
