¹⁶ “Therefore now, LORD God of Israel, keep what You have promised Your servant David, my father, saying, ‘You shall not lack a man in My sight who shall sit upon the throne of Israel, so that Your sons consider their ways, to walk in My Law, as You have walked before Me.’

¹⁷ “And now, O LORD God of Israel, let Your Word be verified which You spoke to Your servant David.

¹⁸ “Is it indeed true that God would dwell with man on Earth? Behold, the heavens, and the heavens of heavens are not able to contain You. How much more so is this House which I have built?
