1 Kings 8:42-44
Christian Standard Bible
42 for they will hear of your great name,
strong hand,(A) and outstretched arm,
and will come(B) and pray toward this temple—
43 may you hear in heaven, your dwelling place,
and do according to all the foreigner asks.
Then all peoples of earth will know(C) your name,
to fear you as your people Israel do
and to know that this temple I have built
bears your name.
44 When your people go out to fight against their enemies,[a]
wherever you send them,
and they pray to the Lord
in the direction of the city you have chosen(D)
and the temple I have built for your name,
