2 Chronicles 6:18

Compare all

16 Therefore, Lord God of Israel, now keep what You promised Your servant David my father, saying, ^a‘You shall not fail to have a man sit before Me on the throne of Israel, ^bonly if your sons take heed to their way, that they walk in My law as you have walked before Me.’

17 And now, O Lord God of Israel, let Your word come true, which You have spoken to Your servant David.

18 “But will God indeed dwell with men on the earth? ^aBehold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain You. How much less this¹ temple which I have built!

19 Yet regard the prayer of Your servant and his supplication, O Lord my God, and listen to the cry and the prayer which Your servant is praying before You:

20 that Your eyes may be ^aopen toward this temple day and night, toward the place where You said You would put Your name, that You may hear the prayer which Your servant makes ^btoward this place.

21 And may You hear the supplications of Your servant and of Your people Israel, when they pray toward this place. Hear from heaven Your dwelling place, and when You hear, ^aforgive.

22 “If anyone sins against his neighbor, and is forced to take an ^aoath, and comes and takes an oath before Your altar in this temple,

23 then hear from heaven, and act, and judge Your servants, bringing retribution on the wicked by bringing his way on his own head, and justifying the righteous by giving him according to his ^arighteousness.
