1 Kings 8:51 In-Context

49 exaudies in caelo in firmamento solii tui orationem eorum et preces et facies iudicium eorum
50 et propitiaberis populo tuo qui peccavit tibi et omnibus iniquitatibus eorum quibus praevaricati sunt in te et dabis misericordiam coram eis qui eos captivos habuerint ut misereantur eis
51 populus enim tuus est et hereditas tua quos eduxisti de terra Aegypti de medio fornacis ferreae
52 ut sint oculi tui aperti ad deprecationem servi tui et populi tui Israhel et exaudias eos in universis pro quibus invocaverint te
53 tu enim separasti eos tibi in hereditatem de universis populis terrae sicut locutus es per Mosen servum tuum quando eduxisti patres nostros de Aegypto Domine Deus
