1 Kings 8:51-53

New International Version

⁵¹ for they are your people and your inheritance,^(A) whom you brought out of Egypt, out of that iron-smelting furnace.^(B)

⁵² “May your eyes be open^(C) to your servant’s plea and to the plea of your people Israel, and may you listen to them whenever they cry out to you.^{(D) 53} For you singled them out from all the nations of the world to be your own inheritance,^(E) just as you declared through your servant Moses when you, Sovereign Lord, brought our ancestors out of Egypt.”
