1 Kings 8:51-53

New Century Version

⁵¹ Remember, they are your special people. You brought them out of Egypt, as if you were pulling them out of a blazing furnace.

⁵² “Give your attention to my prayers and the prayers of your people Israel. Listen to them anytime they ask you for help. ⁵³ You chose them from all the nations on earth to be your very own people. This is what you promised through Moses your servant when you brought our ancestors out of Egypt, Lord God.”
