*
But will God indeed dwell on the earth ?
behold ,
the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee ;
how much less this house that I have builded ?
*
Yet have thou respect unto the prayer of thy servant ,
and to his supplication ,
O LORD my God ,
to hearken unto the cry and to the prayer ,
which thy servant prayeth before thee to day :
*
That thine eyes may be open toward this house night and day ,
even toward the place of which thou hast said ,
My name shall be there :
that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer which thy servant shall make toward this place .
*
And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant ,
and of thy people Israel Yisra #
el #,
when they shall pray toward this place :
and hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place :
and when thou hearest ,
forgive .
