14:006:007 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build an house
           for the name of the lord God of Israel.

14:006:008 But the lord said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in
           thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well in
           that it was in thine heart: 

14:006:009 Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house; but thy son
           which shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the
           house for my name.

14:006:010 The lord therefore hath performed his word that he hath
           spoken:  for I am risen up in the room of David my father, and
           am set on the throne of Israel, as the lord promised, and have
           built the house for the name of the lord God of Israel.

14:006:011 And in it have I put the ark, wherein is the covenant of the
           lord, that he made with the children of Israel.

14:006:012 And he stood before the altar of the lord in the presence of
           all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands: 

14:006:013 For Solomon had made a brasen scaffold of five cubits long,
           and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, and had set it
           in the midst of the court:  and upon it he stood, and kneeled
           down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and
           spread forth his hands toward heaven.

14:006:014 And said, O lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in
           the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepest covenant, and
           shewest mercy unto thy servants, that walk before thee with
           all their hearts: 

14:006:015 Thou which hast kept with thy servant David my father that
           which thou hast promised him; and spakest with thy mouth, and
           hast fulfilled it with thine hand, as it is this day.

14:006:016 Now therefore, O lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant
           David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying,
           There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the
           throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to their
           way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.

14:006:017 Now then, O lord God of Israel, let thy word be verified,
           which thou hast spoken unto thy servant David.

14:006:018 But will God in very deed dwell with men on the earth? behold,
           heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much
           less this house which I have built!

14:006:019 Have respect therefore to the prayer of thy servant, and to
           his supplication, O lord my God, to hearken unto the cry and
           the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee:
