2 Chronicles 6:18-20

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁸ “Does God really live on earth with people?
If heaven itself, the highest heaven, cannot hold you,
then how can this temple that I have built?
¹⁹ Nevertheless, my Lord God, please pay attention to my prayer for mercy.
Listen to my cry for help as I pray to you.
²⁰ Day and night may your eyes be on this temple,
the place about which you said your name will be there.
Listen to me as I pray toward this place.
