Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my peopleIsrael:
8
But the LORDsaid 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:
10
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 LORDpromised, and have built the house for the name of the LORDGod of Israel.

For Solomon had made a brasenscaffold, of fivecubitslong, and fivecubitsbroad, and threecubitshigh, 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
And said, O LORDGod of Israel, there is no God like thee in the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepestcovenant, and shewest mercy unto thy servants, that walkbefore thee with all their hearts:
15
Thou which hast kept with thy servantDavid 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.
