1 Kings 8:25-27

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁵ Now Lord, Israel's God, there is another promise that you spoke to my father David. I pray that you will do that too. You said to David, “There will always be one of your descendants to rule Israel as my chosen king. But for this to happen, your sons must be careful to serve me well, as you have done.” ²⁶ So now, God of Israel, please cause what you promised to my father, your servant David, to happen.

²⁷ But surely God, you do not live on the earth! The whole sky, or even heaven itself, is too small to contain you! So how can you live in this temple that I have built?
