1 Kings 8:19
Nevertheless{H7535} thou shalt not build{H1129}{(H8799)} the house{H1004}; but thy son{H1121} that shall come forth out{H3318}{(H8802)} of thy loins{H2504}, he shall build{H1129}{(H8799)} the house{H1004} unto my name{H8034}.

1 Kings 8:23
And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478}, there is no God{H430} like thee, in heaven{H8064} above{H4605}, or on earth{H776} beneath, who keepest{H8104}{(H8802)} covenant{H1285} and mercy{H2617} with thy servants{H5650} that walk{H1980}{(H8802)} before{H6440} thee with all their heart{H3820}:
1 Kings 8:24
Who hast kept{H8104}{(H8804)} with thy servant{H5650} David{H1732} my father{H1} that thou promisedst{H1696}{(H8765)} him: thou spakest{H1696}{(H8762)} also with thy mouth{H6310}, and hast fulfilled{H4390}{(H8765)} it with thine hand{H3027}, as it is this day{H3117}.
1 Kings 8:25
Therefore now, LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478}, keep{H8104}{(H8798)} with thy servant{H5650} David{H1732} my father{H1} that thou promisedst{H1696}{(H8765)} him, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, There shall not fail{H3772}{(H8735)} thee a man{H376} in my sight{H6440} to sit{H3427}{(H8802)} on the throne{H3678} of Israel{H3478}; so{H7535} that thy children{H1121} take heed{H8104}{(H8799)} to their way{H1870}, that they walk{H3212}{(H8800)} before{H6440} me as thou hast walked{H1980}{(H8804)} before{H6440} me.
1 Kings 8:26
And now, O God{H430} of Israel{H3478}, let thy word{H1697}, I pray thee, be verified{H539}{(H8735)}, which thou spakest{H1696}{(H8765)} unto thy servant{H5650} David{H1732} my father{H1}.
1 Kings 8:27
But will God{H430} indeed{H552} dwell{H3427}{(H8799)} on the earth{H776}? behold, the heaven{H8064} and heaven{H8064} of heavens{H8064} cannot contain{H3557}{(H8770)} thee; how much less{H637} this house{H1004} that I have builded{H1129}{(H8804)}?
1 Kings 8:28
Yet have thou respect{H6437}{(H8804)} unto the prayer{H8605} of thy servant{H5650}, and to his supplication{H8467}, O LORD{H3068} my God{H430}, to hearken{H8085}{(H8800)} unto the cry{H7440} and to the prayer{H8605}, which thy servant{H5650} prayeth{H6419}{(H8693)} before{H6440} thee to day{H3117}:

1 Kings 8:33
When thy people{H5971} Israel{H3478} be smitten down{H5062}{(H8736)} before{H6440} the enemy{H341}{(H8802)}, because they have sinned{H2398}{(H8799)} against thee, and shall turn again{H7725}{(H8804)} to thee, and confess{H3034}{(H8689)} thy name{H8034}, and pray{H6419}{(H8694)}, and make supplication{H2603}{(H8694)} unto thee in this house{H1004}:

When heaven{H8064} is shut up{H6113}{(H8736)}, and there is no rain{H4306}, because they have sinned{H2398}{(H8799)} against thee; if they pray{H6419}{(H8694)} toward this place{H4725}, and confess{H3034}{(H8689)} thy name{H8034}, and turn{H7725}{(H8799)} from their sin{H2403}, when thou afflictest{H6031}{(H8686)} them:
1 Kings 8:36
Then hear{H8085}{(H8799)} thou in heaven{H8064}, and forgive{H5545}{(H8804)} the sin{H2403} of thy servants{H5650}, and of thy people{H5971} Israel{H3478}, that thou teach{H3384}{(H8686)} them the good{H2896} way{H1870} wherein they should walk{H3212}{(H8799)}, and give{H5414}{(H8804)} rain{H4306} upon thy land{H776}, which thou hast given{H5414}{(H8804)} to thy people{H5971} for an inheritance{H5159}.

1 Kings 8:38
What prayer{H8605} and supplication{H8467} soever be made by any man{H120}, or by all thy people{H5971} Israel{H3478}, which shall know{H3045}{(H8799)} every man{H376} the plague{H5061} of his own heart{H3824}, and spread forth{H6566}{(H8804)} his hands{H3709} toward this house{H1004}:
1 Kings 8:39
Then hear{H8085}{(H8799)} thou in heaven{H8064} thy dwelling{H3427}{(H8800)} place{H4349}, and forgive{H5545}{(H8804)}, and do{H6213}{(H8804)}, and give{H5414}{(H8804)} to every man{H376} according to his ways{H1870}, whose heart{H3824} thou knowest{H3045}{(H8799)};(for thou, even thou only, knowest{H3045}{(H8804)} the hearts{H3824} of all the children{H1121} of men{H120};)
1 Kings 8:40
That they may fear{H3372}{(H8799)} thee all the days{H3117} that they live{H2416} in{H6440} the land{H127} which thou gavest{H5414}{(H8804)} unto our fathers{H1}.

1 Kings 8:43
Hear{H8085}{(H8799)} thou in heaven{H8064} thy dwelling{H3427}{(H8800)} place{H4349}, and do{H6213}{(H8804)} according to all that the stranger{H5237} calleth{H7121}{(H8799)} to thee for: that all people{H5971} of the earth{H776} may know{H3045}{(H8799)} thy name{H8034}, to fear{H3372}{(H8800)} thee, as do thy people{H5971} Israel{H3478}; and that they may know{H3045}{(H8800)} that this house{H1004}, which I have builded{H1129}{(H8804)}, is called{H7121}{(H8738)} by thy name{H8034}.
1 Kings 8:44
If thy people{H5971} go out{H3318}{(H8799)} to battle{H4421} against their enemy{H341}{(H8802)}, whithersoever{H1870} thou shalt send{H7971}{(H8799)} them, and shall pray{H6419}{(H8694)} unto the LORD{H3068} toward{H1870} the city{H5892} which thou hast chosen{H977}{(H8804)}, and toward the house{H1004} that I have built{H1129}{(H8804)} for thy name{H8034}:
1 Kings 8:45
Then hear{H8085}{(H8804)} thou in heaven{H8064} their prayer{H8605} and their supplication{H8467}, and maintain{H6213}{(H8804)} their cause{H4941}.
1 Kings 8:46
If they sin{H2398}{(H8799)} against thee,(for there is no man{H120} that sinneth{H2398}{(H8799)} not,) and thou be angry{H599}{(H8804)} with them, and deliver{H5414}{(H8804)} them to the enemy{H341}{(H8802)}, so that they carry them away{H7617}{(H8804)} captives{H7617}{(H8802)} unto{H6440} the land{H776} of the enemy{H341}{(H8802)}, far{H7350} or near{H7138};
1 Kings 8:47
Yet if they shall bethink{H7725}{(H8689)} themselves in the land{H776} whither they were carried captives{H7617}{(H8738)}, and repent{H7725}{(H8804)}{H3820}, and make supplication{H2603}{(H8694)} unto thee in the land{H776} of them that carried them captives{H7617}{(H8802)}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, We have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)}, and have done perversely{H5753}{(H8689)}, we have committed wickedness{H7561}{(H8804)};
1 Kings 8:48
And so return{H7725}{(H8804)} unto thee with all their heart{H3824}, and with all their soul{H5315}, in the land{H776} of their enemies{H341}{(H8802)}, which led them away captive{H7617}{(H8804)}, and pray{H6419}{(H8694)} unto thee toward{H1870} their land{H776}, which thou gavest{H5414}{(H8804)} unto their fathers{H1}, the city{H5892} which thou hast chosen{H977}{(H8804)}, and the house{H1004} which I have built{H1129}{(H8804)} for thy name{H8034}:
1 Kings 8:49
Then hear{H8085}{(H8804)} thou their prayer{H8605} and their supplication{H8467} in heaven{H8064} thy dwelling{H3427}{(H8800)} place{H4349}, and maintain{H6213}{(H8804)} their cause{H4941},
1 Kings 8:50
And forgive{H5545}{(H8804)} thy people{H5971} that have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against thee, and all their transgressions{H6588} wherein they have transgressed{H6586}{(H8804)} against thee, and give{H5414}{(H8804)} them compassion{H7356} before{H6440} them who carried them captive{H7617}{(H8802)}, that they may have compassion{H7355}{(H8765)} on them:
1 Kings 8:51
For they be thy people{H5971}, and thine inheritance{H5159}, which thou broughtest forth{H3318}{(H8689)} out of Egypt{H4714}, from the midst{H8432} of the furnace{H3564} of iron{H1270}:
1 Kings 8:52
That thine eyes{H5869} may be open{H6605}{(H8803)} unto the supplication{H8467} of thy servant{H5650}, and unto the supplication{H8467} of thy people{H5971} Israel{H3478}, to hearken{H8085}{(H8800)} unto them in all that they call{H7121}{(H8800)} for unto thee.
1 Kings 8:53
For thou didst separate{H914}{(H8689)} them from among all the people{H5971} of the earth{H776}, to be thine inheritance{H5159}, as thou spakest{H1696}{(H8765)} by the hand{H3027} of Moses{H4872} thy servant{H5650}, when thou broughtest{H3318}{(H8687)} our fathers{H1} out of Egypt{H4714}, O Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}.
1 Kings 8:54
And it was so, that when Solomon{H8010} had made an end{H3615}{(H8763)} of praying{H6419}{(H8692)} all this prayer{H8605} and supplication{H8467} unto the LORD{H3068}, he arose{H6965}{(H8804)} from before{H6440} the altar{H4196} of the LORD{H3068}, from kneeling{H3766}{(H8800)} on his knees{H1290} with his hands{H3709} spread up{H6566}{(H8803)} to heaven{H8064}.
1 Kings 8:55
And he stood{H5975}{(H8799)}, and blessed{H1288}{(H8762)} all the congregation{H6951} of Israel{H3478} with a loud{H1419} voice{H6963}, saying{H559}{(H8800)},
1 Kings 8:56
Blessed{H1288}{(H8803)} be the LORD{H3068}, that hath given{H5414}{(H8804)} rest{H4496} unto his people{H5971} Israel{H3478}, according to all that he promised{H1696}{(H8765)}: there hath not failed{H5307}{(H8804)} one{H259} word{H1697} of all his good{H2896} promise{H1697}, which he promised{H1696}{(H8765)} by the hand{H3027} of Moses{H4872} his servant{H5650}.

The LORD{H3068} our God{H430} be with us, as he was with our fathers{H1}: let him not leave{H5800}{(H8799)} us, nor forsake{H5203}{(H8799)} us:
1 Kings 8:58
That he may incline{H5186}{(H8687)} our hearts{H3824} unto him, to walk{H3212}{(H8800)} in all his ways{H1870}, and to keep{H8104}{(H8800)} his commandments{H4687}, and his statutes{H2706}, and his judgments{H4941}, which he commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} our fathers{H1}.
1 Kings 8:59
And let these my words{H1697}, wherewith I have made supplication{H2603}{(H8694)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, be nigh{H7138} unto the LORD{H3068} our God{H430} day{H3119} and night{H3915}, that he maintain{H6213}{(H8800)} the cause{H4941} of his servant{H5650}, and the cause{H4941} of his people{H5971} Israel{H3478} at all times{H3117}{H3117}, as the matter{H1697} shall require:
1 Kings 8:60
That all the people{H5971} of the earth{H776} may know{H3045}{(H8800)} that the LORD{H3068} is God{H430}, and that there is none else.
