Bible. Chronicles, 2nd
14:006:013 For Solomon had made a brasen scaffold of five cubits long,
and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, and had set it
in the midst of the court: and upon it he stood, and kneeled
down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and
spread forth his hands toward heaven.
14:006:014 And said, O LORD God of Israel, there is no God like thee in
the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepest covenant, and
shewest mercy unto thy servants, that walk before thee with
all their hearts:
14:006:015 Thou which hast kept with thy servant David my father that
which thou hast promised him; and spakest with thy mouth, and
hast fulfilled it with thine hand, as it is this day.
14:006:016 Now therefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant
David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying,
There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the
throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to their
way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.
14:006:017 Now then, O LORD God of Israel, let thy word be verified,
which thou hast spoken unto thy servant David.
14:006:018 But will God in very deed dwell with men on the earth? behold,
heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much
less this house which I have built!
14:006:019 Have respect therefore to the prayer of thy servant, and to
his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and
the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee:
14:006:020 That thine eyes may be open upon this house day and night,
upon the place whereof thou hast said that thou wouldest put
thy name there; to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant
prayeth toward this place.
14:006:021 Hearken therefore unto the supplications of thy servant, and
of thy people Israel, which they shall make toward this place:
hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven; and when
thou hearest, forgive.
14:006:022 If a man sin against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon
him to make him swear, and the oath come before thine altar in
this house;
14:006:023 Then hear thou from heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, by
requiting the wicked, by recompensing his way upon his own
head; and by justifying the righteous, by giving him according
to his righteousness.
14:006:024 And if thy people Israel be put to the worse before the enemy,
because they have sinned against thee; and shall return and
confess thy name, and pray and make supplication before thee
in this house;
