1Kings:8:22-61




gltv@1Kings:8:22 @ And Solomon stood before the altar of Jehovah, across from the assembly of Israel, and spread his palms toward the heavens;

gltv@1Kings:8:23 @ and said, Jehovah, God of Israel, there is no God like You in the heavens above or on the earth beneath; who keeps covenant and mercy with Your servants that walk before You with all their heart;

gltv@1Kings:8:24 @ Who have kept for Your servant David, my father, that which You spoke to him; yea, You spoke with Your mouth, and with Your hand have fulfilled it as it is this day.

gltv@1Kings:8:25 @ And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, keep for Your servant David, my father, that which You spoke to him, saying, There shall not be cut off from you a man from before Me, sitting on the throne of Israel; only, if your sons watch their way, to walk before Me as you have walked before Me.

gltv@1Kings:8:26 @ And now, O God of Israel, let it be established, I beseech You, Your word which You have spoken to Your servant, my father David.

gltv@1Kings:8:27 @ But will God in truth dwell on the earth? Behold, the heavens and the heavens of the heavens cannot contain You; how much less this house which I have built!

gltv@1Kings:8:28 @ Yet You have turned toward the prayer of Your servant, and to his supplication, O Jehovah my God, to listen to the cry and to the prayer which Your servant is praying before You today;

gltv@1Kings:8:29 @ for Your eyes are open toward this house night and day, toward the place of which You have said, My name shall be there; to listen to the prayer which Your servant prays toward this place.

gltv@1Kings:8:30 @ And You shall listen to the supplication of Your servant, and of Your people Israel when they shall pray toward this place; yea, You shall listen in Your dwelling-place, in Heaven; and You shall hear and shall forgive.

gltv@1Kings:8:31 @ If any man sins against his neighbor, and an oath be exacted of him to cause him to swear, and the oath has come before Your altar in this house,

gltv@1Kings:8:32 @ then You shall hear in Heaven, and shall act, and shall judge Your servants, to declare the wicked to be wicked, to put his way on his head, and to declare the righteous to be righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.

gltv@1Kings:8:33 @ When Your people Israel are stricken before the enemy, when they sin against You, if they turn again to You, and confess Your name, and pray and make supplication to You in this house;

gltv@1Kings:8:34 @ then You shall hear in Heaven, and shall forgive the sin of Your people Israel, and shall bring them back to the land that You gave to their fathers.

gltv@1Kings:8:35 @ When the heavens are restrained, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against You, and they have prayed toward this place, and confess Your name, and have turned from their sin because You have afflicted them,

gltv@1Kings:8:36 @ then You shall hear in Heaven, and shall forgive the sin of Your servants, and of Your people Israel, for You shall teach them the good way in which they shall go, and shall give rain on Your land which You have given to Your people for an inheritance.

gltv@1Kings:8:37 @ When there is famine in the land; when there is pestilence, blasting, mildew, locusts; when there is the stripping locust; when its enemy has distressed it in the land in its gates; any plague, any sickness,

gltv@1Kings:8:38 @ any prayer, any supplication that shall come from any man of all of Your people Israel, who shall each know the plague of his own heart, and shall spread his palms toward this house,

gltv@1Kings:8:39 @ then You shall hear in Heaven Your dwellingplace and shall forgive and shall act, and shall give to each according to all his ways, whose heart You know (for You have known, You alone, the heart of all the sons of Adam),

gltv@1Kings:8:40 @ so that they shall fear You all the days that they are living on the face of the land that You have given to our fathers.

gltv@1Kings:8:41 @ And also, to the alien who is not of Your people Israel, and has come from a land afar off for Your name's sake,

gltv@1Kings:8:42 @ (for they shall hear of Your great name, and of Your strong hand, and of Your stretched out arm, and he shall have come in and prayed toward this house,)

gltv@1Kings:8:43 @ You shall hear in Heaven, Your dwellingplace, and shall do according to all that the stranger calls to You for, so that all the peoples of the earth may know Your name, to fear You like Your people Israel, and to know that Your name has been called on this house which I have built.

gltv@1Kings:8:44 @ If Your people shall go out to battle against its enemy, in the way that You have sent them, and they have prayed to Jehovah the way of the city which You have chosen, and of the house which I have built for Your name,

gltv@1Kings:8:45 @ then hear their prayer and their supplication in Heaven, and maintain their cause.

gltv@1Kings:8:46 @ When they sin against You (for there is not a man who does not sin) and You have been angry with them, and have given them up before an enemy, and they have been led away into captivity to the land of the enemy, far off or near;

gltv@1Kings:8:47 @ and they have turned their heart back in the land where they have been taken captive, and have repented, and made supplication to You in the land of their captors, saying, We have sinned and done perversely; we have done wickedly;

gltv@1Kings:8:48 @ and, they have turned back to You with all their heart, and with all the their soul, in the land of their enemies who have taken them captive, and have prayed to You the way of their land which You gave to their fathers, the city which You have chosen, and the house which I have built for Your name,

gltv@1Kings:8:49 @ then You shall hear their prayer and their supplication in Heaven Your dwellingplace, and shall maintain their cause,

gltv@1Kings:8:50 @ and shall forgive Your people who have sinned against You, even all their transgressions which they have transgressed against You, and shall give them mercy before their captors, and they shall have mercy on them.

gltv@1Kings:8:51 @ For they are Your people and Your inheritance, whom You brought out of Egypt, out of the midst of the furnace of iron;

gltv@1Kings:8:52 @ for Your eyes shall be open to the supplication of Your servant, and to the supplication of Your people Israel, to listen to them in all that they call to You for;

gltv@1Kings:8:53 @ for You have separated them to Yourself for an inheritance out of all the peoples of the earth, as You spoke by the hand of Your servant Moses when You brought out our fathers from Egypt, O Lord Jehovah.

gltv@1Kings:8:54 @ And it happened as Solomon finished praying to Jehovah all this prayer and supplication, he arose from before the altar of Jehovah, from bending on his knees, and his palms spread out to Heaven;

gltv@1Kings:8:55 @ and he stood and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,

gltv@1Kings:8:56 @ Blessed be Jehovah who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He has spoken; not one word of all His good word has fallen, which He spoke by the hand of His servant Moses.

gltv@1Kings:8:57 @ Jehovah our God is with us as He has been with our fathers; He shall not forsake us or leave us,

gltv@1Kings:8:58 @ to incline our heart to Himself, to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and His statutes, and His judgments, which He commanded our fathers;

gltv@1Kings:8:59 @ and these words of mine which I have prayed before Jehovah be near to Jehovah our God by day and by night, to maintain the cause of His servant, and the cause of His people Israel, the matter of each day in its day;

gltv@1Kings:8:60 @ for all the peoples of the earth know that Jehovah, He is God; there is no other;

gltv@1Kings:8:61 @ let your heart therefore be perfect with Jehovah our God, to walk in His statutes, and to keep His commandments, as at this day.
