3 Y volviendo el rey su rostro, bendijo á toda la congregación de Israel: y toda la congregación de Israel estaba en pie.
4 Y él dijo: Bendito sea Jehová Dios de Israel, el cual con su mano ha cumplido lo que habló por su boca á David mi padre, diciendo:
5 Desde el día que saqué mi pueblo de la tierra de Egipto, ninguna ciudad he elegido de todas las tribus de Israel para edificar casa donde estuviese mi nombre, ni he escogido varón que fuese príncipe sobre mi pueblo Israel.
