2 Chronicles 6:17-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁷ “So now, Lord God of Israel,
may the promise you made to David, your servant, come true.

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.
