2 Chronicles 6:13 In-Context

11 I have put the ark there, where the Lord's covenant is that He made with the Israelites.

12 Then Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in front of the entire congregation of Israel and spread out his hands.

13 For Solomon had made a bronze platform seven and a half feet long, seven and a half feet wide, and four and a half feet high and put it in the court. He stood on it, knelt down in front of the entire congregation of Israel, and spread out his hands toward heaven.

14 He said: Lord God of Israel, there is no God like You in heaven or on earth, keeping His gracious covenant with Your servants who walk before You with their whole heart.

15 You have kept what You promised to Your servant, my father David. You spoke directly [to him], and You fulfilled [Your promise] by Your power, as it is today.
